Sunday Set List 02/01/09

This is my first "Sunday Set List" for Fred McKinnon's blog.
You can find other worshippers' set lists here -

I really enjoy reading other people's set lists.
You can find out where their church is going and what they are doing.
Again, please feel free to comment on my entries as I love to hear what others think.

To introduce myself, I lead worship in Hamlin, Texas - a town of about 2200.
At First Baptist, we like a blended service - a good mix of hymns and contemporary.
While we don't sing any original songs, I do write musc and have been for some time. I'll probably post some soon...
Our body likes familiarity, so I look for songs they plug into and own.
I try my best to help them come to the throne of God every Sunday.
We average between 215-220 on a Sunday - some days we're lower...

This weekend was D-Now weekend for our church.
Sunday morning there were around 350 people at FBCH, with most being students and parents of students.
So our normally "blended" service was much more contemporary - and that will be reflected in the song choices.

Our theme for D-Now 2009 was "Freedom."
Our Verse for the weekend was John 8:32. "Then you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free."
We tried to sing songs that declared our reedom in Christ the entire weekend.
So, after much to-do, here is the Set List for February 1st.
