CHOIR TOUR 2010

The Spring 2010 Tour is the “Unity Tour,” and the choir will be focusing on biblical teachings about the Church. The Tour theme will be amplified through narratives and Bible verses that tie the songs together showing the unity all Christians have in Christ.

The theme verse is Ephesians 4:1-6: "1 As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. 2 Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. 3 Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called— 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism; 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all."

Representative songs include: Classical: Cantate Domino (Giuseppe Pitoni); If Ye Love Me, Keep My Commandments (Thomas Tallis); Hymns: The Church Is One Foundation; Brethren, We Have Met to Worship; Down To The River To Pray; Contemporary: Upon This Rock (Pepper Choplin); Holy Is His Name (John Michael Talbot); To Live Is Christ (Kate Wray); Revelation Song (Jennie Lee Riddle); How Great Is Your Love (Nick Robertson and Dave Clark)
