Wedding Praise and Worship Songs: A Heavenly Selection for Your Big Day
Well, if ya got yourself a wedding comin’ up and want some good ol’ praise and worship songs to play, I reckon I can help. Weddings are a mighty big deal, and we sure want to fill the air with songs that bring the spirit of love and joy. Now, these ain’t just any tunes—these are songs that’ll help you and your loved ones connect with the Lord while you celebrate that special day.
Shout To The Lord is a great one to start with. Now, don’t go thinkin’ it’s too old or overused. No sir, this song is one that’ll fit any kind of wedding, whether you’re young or old. It’s got a strong chorus, easy for folks to sing along, and it doesn’t make things feel too showy or cheesy. You see, it lifts up the Lord’s name, and that’s what matters most on such a blessed day. It’s simple, powerful, and speaks to all hearts.
Can’t Help Falling In Love by Elvis Presley might be a little more on the romantic side, but oh, it sure fits in with weddings. People love this one. It’s slow, it’s sweet, and it just makes everyone feel all warm inside. When you hear it playin’, you can’t help but think of how you just know you’ve found the one. It’s not just a love song—it’s a song about the kind of love that’s built to last, a love that reflects the love our Lord shows us.
Now, when you’re thinkin’ about what songs to choose, don’t forget to think about your church and your congregation. I always say, you want to go with songs that point folks back to God, not just songs that sound pretty. You don’t need the latest pop hits; sometimes, the simpler hymns and worship songs bring out the best in everyone. And, while there’s plenty of good ones out there, you might just want to pick some that speak straight to your soul and encourage folks to pray and worship together.
Love Never Fails by Brandon Heath is one of those songs. Now, that one right there talks all about love in its purest form. It tells us that love don’t boast, it don’t get all puffed up with pride, and it sure don’t give up. That’s the kind of love that’ll keep a marriage goin’ strong, through thick and thin. This song will remind you and your guests that love is the greatest gift, and it’s the kind of love God has for us all.
How Great Thou Art is another classic. It’s one of them hymns that just makes you feel humble in the Lord’s presence. You can’t go wrong with a song like that at a wedding. It reminds us of how great and mighty our God is, and no matter what’s goin’ on in your life, you can always rely on Him. Now, I know it’s not a “wedding” song per se, but the power in the words is enough to fill your heart with peace and gratitude. What better way to start your marriage than by praising the Lord together?
If you’re lookin’ for somethin’ a little more modern, but still packed with that good ol’ worship feel, 10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord) by Matt Redman should be on your list. This song speaks about the many reasons we have to praise God, and how we oughta bless His holy name every single day. It’s a good reminder to keep God in the center of your marriage and life—no matter where the journey takes you.
Of course, don’t forget about the prayer songs like “The Lord’s Prayer.” It’s a powerful way to invite the presence of God into your ceremony and ask for His guidance in your life together. It’s simple, but boy, does it carry weight. Plus, it’s one of them songs that’ll get everyone prayin’ together. The words are so familiar, they’ll be on everyone’s lips and in their hearts. If you want a song that brings unity and brings the focus back on God, this is it.
Choosing the right songs for your wedding can seem like a lot of work, but really, it’s about picking what resonates with you and the people you care about. You want music that’ll help you feel God’s love, and one that’ll bring everyone closer to Him. That’s the ultimate goal, after all. And whether you go with something old or new, slow or fast, just make sure your songs lead you to worship Him with all your heart, because that’s what this day is all about.
So, when you’re sittin’ down to make your list, keep in mind that the best wedding songs don’t just sound good—they help ya praise the Lord and celebrate the love He’s blessed you with. And remember, a little prayer never hurt nobody. Happy weddin’, and may the Lord bless your union!
