This afternoon I was thinking about how I wished we had some worship CD’s in French, just to learn better some of the songs we sing on a Sunday morning.

Drew has found a good online French worship station, but often the songs played are less worship and more entertaining. So I thought I would look up a couple of songs on YouTube just to see the lyrics and learn the songs better.  Well I stumbled upon a few classics!

Recognise this song?

Which led me to this guy Dan Luiten.  I’m assuming he is the French version of Matt Redman.  Go to his website, click on the album tab and check out his Seule Ta Grace album.

Another classic,

And this one you’ll recognise when they start singing.  I love this song but this was the only semi decent recording in French I could find.  Better than the awful photo montages though.

Right now this is one of my favourites.

I found this French version of Hosanna by Hillsong.  Beautiful music but check out the second slide with the horse and rider in the clouds.  Gotta chuckle at these awful montages.

Don’t be scared to sing along, God knows the words so you don’t have to pronounce them correctly 😉
