Last March we released the first batch of Songs from The New City Catechism, which covered Questions 1-15. As I wrote then,
When The Gospel Coalition, Redeemer Presbyterian Church, and Crossway decided to bring The New City Catechism (NCC) to print, we knew we wanted to commission brand-new songs that followed the exact wording of The New City Catechism children’s questions and answers. What might take weeks to learn through repetition could take minutes to memorize when set to the right tune.
That has indeed been the case as both children and adults have responded enthusiastically to learning the catechism through song.
Today, we are pleased to release a second set of songs covering Questions 16 to 31 set to music by Frank Hernandez. There are a several ways you can stream and download:
- Stream More Songs from The New City Catechism album from Bandcamp (works best for iPhone)
- Download the entire More Songs from The New City Catechism album from Bandcamp (must be downloaded on a computer then imported into iTunes before you can listen on an iPhone, though Android supports direct downloads)
- Play the songs on NewCityCatechism.com (be sure the site is set to children’s mode to play the songs) or on this site (below)
- Play lyric videos on Youtube
- Play the songs through the NCC apps (iTunes | Google Play)
- Download lead sheets for worship
Coming Soon:
