Awesome God: Worship Songs for Children, Sovereign Grace Music

Several weeks ago I, along with a number of other bloggers, received a copy of this CD for review. Sovereign Grace Music is a division of Sovereign Grace Ministries, the ministry led by C. J. Mahaney.
At first I was not especially taken with the CD because the music is not particularly my style. My boys thought the chorus of “Forever God” was a bit funny as it repeated “on and on and on.” They said it went “on and on and on.” However, from the beginning we appreciated the careful and substantial lyrics. Indeed, as we listened more we were won over. Now it is a favorite. The music is fun, but the best part is the God-centered, gospel-oriented lyrics.

One that I especially like is “Your Love.” The chorus in part says:

Your awesome love protects me
When I sin your love corrects me
You’re faithful to direct me
Always to Your love

I appreciate the discussion of God’s love including his gracious discipline and care.

This can be a fun resource for encouraging our children in thinking biblically.
