Kids' Creed

John Grummitt, Sue Crossman

Resound Worship’s 12 Song Challenge this month was to take inspiration from the great creeds of the church. I was at the annual Resound Worship Songwriters’ Retreat at Wydale Hall in Yorkshire, UK so had plenty of time to reflection, and I took inspiration from the Nicene Creed. Pairing up with the very talented Sue Crossman of Hopestream Worship, we came up with this. Each verse focusses on expanding, in language simple enough for children, each person of the Trinity. Since writing it, we’ve used it regularly in our Sunday School and family services and it’s a hit with young and old alike.

What We Can Do

Andy Biggs, Catharine Revill, Tom Kelleher

We are rightly taught that it is only by grace that we are saved. But it can be easy to get into wrong thinking about what we can do, and feel inadequate because of what we don’t do, or don’t have the ability to so. This is a song to sing together as a congregation or in personal worship, to remind ourselves that whatever our abilities or frailties are, we can come accepted and worship Him, knowing that his grace will supply what we need as part of the body of Christ. We are all “fearfully and wonderfully made”, often with “weirdly hewn” characteristics that God designed for His glory!

Psalm 15

Ken Spence

This was a 12 song challenge to write a song based on one of the Psalms. I decided to start at the beginning of the book of Psalms and choose the first one that seemed to appeal to me and which I hadn't used before. I settled for Psalm 15 which clearly defines what a believer should be like and it beautifully mirrors what Jesus taught which is rather prescient to current events in the evangelical church.

It is a comforting realization that God does not abandon us during our darkest hours. Instead, during our most painful trials, He is carrying us. This song is about trusting in God.
