Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week and leads to the commemoration of Christ’s death and resurrection. The crowds were shouting “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord” and “Hosanna to the Son of David.” as they welcomed in their expected Messiah. But their plans were not God's plans, and by weeks end their chant had changed. Only after the empty tomb would they begin to understand. As you celebrate on Palm Sunday, here are a number of songs that would be the perfect addition to your worship service.

From Abraham to David, we are reminded of what it means to be the children of Kingdom builders. Our roots are what connect us to our Father in heaven. It is God’s Holy household that is carried in the shape of earthly connection. It is His marriage with the church that blesses our communion with one another. Our generations are the testimony of our faith; constant and connected to the guidance of Him. Here is a list of songs focusing on the generations of God’s people.

Revival washes over us when, as believers, we experience a renewed and refreshing work of the Holy Spirit in our life, and gain a greater awareness of our need of Christ. The song compiled here remind us of our daily need of confession and repentance as we seek revival in our heart.

We are cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ, which was poured out as a testimony of His sacrificial love. The cleansing of our Spirit is how God intends for us to be purified, healed, and guided back to Him. This is the divine offering that is intended through the death of His son, who stood unblemished and untouched by evil. It is His purity that beckons our confession, and out of this blooms an eternity of belonging beside the divinity of God’s throne. Here is a list of songs focusing on cleansing. 

Assurance in the Christian life is two-fold. Our assurance of salvation comes from Christ’s saving work that purchased and granted to us and keeps the fulfillment of all his promises to us (2 Peter 1:4.) Our assurance of faith that Hebrews 10 speaks of is both a gift of God and something we must grow. It comes from walking through trials, conflict, sorrow, hardship that refines, strengthens and deepens our trust in God. Here are songs about assurance.

Jesus taught about how we could enter the Kingdom of God, His miracles proved the power of the Kingdom of God, and He taught about the truth of the Kingdom of God. With His incarnation, Jesus instituted the Kingdom of God here and now, and also promised the Kingdom of God yet to come. Here are songs celebrating our hope because of the Kingdom of God.

The book of Hebrews tells us that faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. It is a trust in God and in His Word. And it is the gift by which we have been saved. This is a collection of songs about faith.
