Sing the Word: Great in Counsel & Mighty in Deed

Great In Counsel 

Great In Counsel is the fourth CD in the series and is perhaps the most diverse recording. "God Meant It For Good" is a heart-felt musical rendition of Joseph's poignant message to the brothers who sold him into slavery. The militaristic "The Battle Is The Lord's" recounts the thrilling story of David and Goliath. In "All Things Work Together For Good" and "Be Anxious For Nothing," soothing girls' voices create an atmosphere of child-like faith and reverence. "Iron Sharpens Iron" features a humorous dialog between son Micah, age 7, and Dad (age 54). 

The 15 Scripture memory songs focused on God's counsel and might. The musical settings are written to reflect Scripture's meaning and capture its essence in sound. 

Great In Counsel includes instrumental-only tracks for memory practice and performance. Recommended for ages 8 and up. NAS, KJV

About the Sing The Word Series:

Most Christian children's music seems trivial at best and all too frequently become unbiblical in an effort at simplicity. The music can range from tedious to obnoxious, and even if the humor was funny once, it quickly becomes exasperating as it is repeated over and over during the day. 

Thankfully, the Sing The Word Series is very different. Sung by and for children, the words you'll hear are taken directly from the scriptures. The music itself encompasses various musical styles and is neither tedious nor grating.

After listening, we were surprised to find ourselves singing the verses around the house, complete with the correct references. For a family with chronic poor memory, this was notable! 

Perhaps this was because the words are repeated several times in each song. Or maybe it is because the children's voices are so pleasing to listen to, and the tunes are catchy and easy to sing. 

Sing The Word Series is Produced by a musically enterprising couple and their clutch of young children. The Harrows found that their musical sophistication grew with their children. So expect more complex scriptural content and great musical variety (a Baroque string orchestra, a rhythmically intense Salsa band, an Irish jig...) throughout the series. 

The Bible versions vary too, including NIV, KJV, NKJV, RSV, and NAS.
