A Blessing Song

Every church musician has a folder of miscellaneous songs that are used sometimes but aren’t in the major collection their church uses. Since I’ve done backings for everything in As One Voice, I’ll put up backings from my miscellaneous folder. It is roughly alphabetical. The intent is still to learn new songs, especially for niche circumstances, and I’ll try to find where they are available to buy if you need the music. That should be interesting for those that are faded photocopies and hand scribbled music.

Firstly, this is a song by Monica Brown that I think we used for a first communion service. It was at the end and functioned as a blessing from the community to the children and I think it does that task beautifully.

It is from her Praise and Blessings collection. You can hear the song at her site and buy the sheet music or CD there as well, just scroll down until you find it.

A blessing song for you, we sing from our hearts.

We thank our God for you, for the gift that you are.

And we pray now that the seed of His love

May grow in your heart,

And as you grow may you always know

How precious you are in the eyes of our God.

May his face smile on you, bringing joy to you.

And as you grow may you always know…

How precious you are in the eyes of our God.

    You may have me confused with the wonderful Monica Brown who wrote this song. I just make backings.

    Into Your Hands is in her collection “Holy Ground”, which is available at http://au.emmausproductions.com/component/virtuemart/adult/adult-cds/holy-ground

    You could contact Monica through Emmaus Productions at
