Day 3: A Song that Makes me Happy

I thought about this one for a while and decided I have to go with one of my favorite worship songs.

Days of Elijah

Now, don't ask me who the original artist is. I'll admit, with songs like this I don't actually care. When it comes to worship music, nothing is more beautiful than the entire congregation singing along with your home church's humble worship team.

The first time I sang this song in my church, it was one of those, "Let's all sing the song we taught you guys last Sunday!" situations, and for whatever reason I hadn't been to church the previous Sunday. Naturally this made me a grumbler, because I hate singing worship songs I'm not familiar with. The words display on the screen, but I'm never sure what the tempo is going to be like, and it's just not an enjoyable experience for me. So at first, this was just another song to stumble through, something else to learn reluctantly while everyone else already had it down.

I don't know when or how it happened, but somehow I grew to love this song despite my initial grumbling. Now I get really psyched about it, probably more than any other song I've ever sung in church. Sometimes when the worship team is on stage, I just wanna shout, "Days of Elijah" but I don't know if that's okay. Can you shout out song recommendations in church? I feel like that needs to be a thing.

I can't explain how excited I am about this song. It's powerful, it's uplifting; it's just good.

"There's no God like Jehovah!"
