I love having music ...I feel the same about music. I love having music playing during the day! My husband doesn't care for the competion (he doesn't like to shout over the music), so I only play it while he is sleeping. <br><br> But, for cleaning, I prefer fast, upbeat songs. For quiet times, such as meal prep and other times in the day, I love listening to hymns (old and new arrangments), instrumentals and some songs from musicals. <br><br> Some of my favorite songs include Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us (this was the first hymn I learned how to play on the piano and it still touches me whenever I hear it). <br><br> Another is Change my Heart, O God (I love the reminder of this song!), I also love Pachabel's Canon in D (everytime I hear this I remember walking down the aisle to my husband), I also love the sweet melody of Be Thou my Vision! <br><br> Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle has begun to have new meaning and can make me tear up now that I have girls! <br><br> My children love listening to the Hide 'Em in Your Heart CD's. They have memorized so much scripture this way. <br><br> I have also compiled a sampling of hymns, instrumentals (both classical & hymns), and a few from musicals that we listen to. My son surprised me the other day by singing along to one of the hymns in this collection. I was so surprised that he knew all the words! <br><br> I love music and enjoy bringing it into my children's lives. Some day my girls and my son will learn to play the piano, but for now I am content to sing with them.<br><br> Music is a great way to keep your mind on the Lord and off of yourself! It was wonderful to "hear" your soundtrack!anneliesekmcdowellnoreply@blogger.com
