Love One Another
“Earlier, Jesus had given a commandment to “love thy neighbour as thyself” (Matthew 22:39). Now He gave “a new commandment.” What do you think it means to love others as Jesus loves you? (see John 13:34).”
When He Comes Again – New Testament
“When He Comes Again” is the “suggested song” for the New Testament lesson “The Son of Man Shall Come” studying JS Matt 1; Matthew 24-25; Mark 12-13; Luke 21.
Rejoice, the Lord is King!
“When Jesus arrived at Jerusalem just days before He accomplished His Atonement, those who recognized Him as their King showed their devotion by anointing Him, putting clothes and palm branches along His path into Jerusalem, and shouting praises….How can you honor and receive the Savior as your Lord and King?”
Dearest Children, God is Near You (New Testament Version)
“Dearest Children, God is Near You” is another repeated “suggested song” which I first arranged for the old testament study of 2 Kings 2-7. This was the first video I did in this Come Follow Me Music series! I am happy to be able to say I have done 46 music video arrangements up to this date! I know there are so many ways in which I can improve, but I am grateful to have been able to done what I’ve done so far with the Lord’s inspiration.
Dear to the Heart of the Shepherd – New Testament Version
The stories (bible videos depictions) included within this arrangement are: The Prodigal Son, Jesus teaching to seek the Kingdom of God and The Parable of the Lost Sheep.
The Lord Is My Shepherd for John 7-10
The suggested song for April 24-30’s Come Follow Me lesson is “The Lord Is My Shepherd”. If you have been following me since I began this project, you may remember that I had already done a video of this song for the old testament study of the book of Psalms. You can find it here: The Lord Is My Shepherd – Psalms Although the music is the same as last time, the video has been updated to include applications for these sections of scripture in John 7-10. I love that the Savior declares to the people, referring back to the writings of David in the book of psalms, that He is that good shepherd!
Jesus Said Love Everyone
The suggested song for April 17-23rd’s Come Follow Me lesson is “Jesus Said Love Everyone”. It is a short, sweet and simple song found in the Primary Children’s Songbook. It has a clear message…. to love everyone! I appreciate the Parable of the Good Samaritan and included some clips from the film the Church of Jesus Christ made for it, along with another modern day example of a “good Samaritan”. If you haven’t watched these full videos, they can be found in this week’s Come Follow Me Lesson.
I Believe in Christ
The suggested song for April 10-16’s Come Follow Me lesson is “I Believe in Christ”. In my opinion, this is one of the more powerful hymns found in the LDS hymn book; I love it. The title of the lesson is “Thou Art the Christ” and studies Matthew 15-17 and Mark 7-9.
Jesus Has Risen/To Think About Jesus Medley
The suggested song for this special Easter week topic is “Jesus Has Risen.” As I was looking over this song in the Primary Songbook, I noticed the song next to it is “To Think About Jesus.” I played around with both of them and decided to combine the two into a medley. “To Think About Jesus” is one of my Mother’s favorite primary songs. She plays the piano and has accompanied for Primary many times. I felt that combining the two songs adds to the depth of the arrangement. I hope you enjoy!
How Great the Wisdom and the Love
How Great the Wisdom and the Love (Hymn no. 195) is a hymn that is usually sung as a congregation during the sacred sacrament portion of a latter day saint Sunday meeting.
The Come Follow Me lesson is called “Be Not Afraid” and is studying Matthew 14; Mark 6; John 5–6. John 6:68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. 69 And we believe and are sure27 that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
