Why We Sing.
The Word of God calls on the people of God to sing, to sing joyfully and skillfully as is fitting to the worship of our great Creator and Redeemer. Singing with joy and skill takes instruction, effort, and practice. Not everyone can sing like Pavarotti; not everyone can sing with a commanding solo voice. And who said we had to? Just as the Scriptures tell us that we are members of the Body of Christ, and each member has a different function in the Body, so it is with singing in congregational worship.
But for many, worship psalms and hymns, whether contemporary or traditional, are almost impossible to sing. Is everyone a soprano? Is everyone a tenor? Why do they write songs like that? What is the solution? Well, the solution is finding your place, finding your voice! You see, if you have a bass voice, there’s no sense in singing the melody an octave lower (which usually doesn’t work throughout the whole song anyway). The solution is singing the harmony part written especially for a bass voice, or the alto voice or the tenor voice.
This is where Heart & Voice can solve the problem! We will teach you to sing a harmony part that fits your voice range, and the result will be this: joyful and skillful singing to the glory of God! That’s our purpose in this website, the learning tracks, our Singing Schools....to provide you with the resources you need to improve your singing in congregational and family worship.
