The message in the
front of the book reads (Praises III)...
"Sing
praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, song praises." --
Psalm 47:6
PRAISES III is a unique
combination of songs that will accommodate a wide variety of groups and
occasions. This volume is filled with thought-provoking hymns and several simple
gospel songs as well. There are choirs selections and seasonal songs that will
provide variety and freshness to any music ministry. Children will also find
special songs that are fun and creative while teaching important principles. The
two PRAISES books have been used effectively as special music for the church
choir, mixed ensembles, and solos, as well as a supplement to the hymnal for
congregational singing. PRAISES III is also appropriate for chapel singing,
youth groups, Sunday School Class, family devotional time, and other special
occasions.
The dedicated team of writers and authors
at Majesty Music have composed and compiled this book to meet the needs
of Bible-Believing churches for quality Christian Music. We believe that
Christ-honoring music must be scripturally accurate in lyrics and in principles
and should communicate the victorious message of the gospel with vitality and
majesty. We do not seek to imitate the world in any musical style. Our purpose
is to create melodies and lyrics that carefully focus hearts and minds on the
Savior of His Word.
We are thrilled with the responses
we have received to Volumes I & II of Praises. The songs from these two
books are now doing sung in over twenty-five languages around the world, from
the jungles of Surinam to the blossoming churches of Russia. It is wonderful to
see how God is using our efforts to preach the Gospel and teach His Word through
music. We dedicate PRAISES III to faithful believers worldwide who preach and
teach the gospel and sing God's praises to the lost. We pray that the Lord will
use these songs to encourage and build believers as they sing and bring glory to
your Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. If his name is glorified through this
combination of words and music, we will have accomplished our purpose.
"Sing unto the Lord a new
song, and his praise from the end of the earth." -- Isaiah 42:10
