Music

Music is an important part of worship at St Ninian’s. We are known as a church that sings, music used in worship ranges from the ancient to modern and is accompanied by piano, violin or a praise band. St Ninian’s is a church that sings and is confident singing a capella either for portions of the service such as the Gloria or for hymns, Taize chants have been used in services.

Occasionally the church is used for musical events, the proceeds of which are donated to various charities.

Music that has been used in services recently is listed below, links take you to YouTube versions of the hymn/song.

New Every Morning is the Love
All who are thirsty
There’s a wideness in God’s mercy
Ubi caritas
At The Name of Jesus
New Every Morning is the Love
Jesus, name above all names
Blessed Be Your Name
Be Still
To God be the glory
Jesus is King!
Speak O Lord
King of Kings, majesty
In the Lord I’ll be ever thankful
Jesus shall reign
The Church is wherever God’s people are praising
Spirit of truth and grace
Will You Come and Follow Me?
Thuma Mina
Forth in Your Name I GoHow great Thou art
Were I a perfect child of God
Here in this place new light is streaming
In the Lord I’ll be ever thankful
Light of the world
Teach me to dance
All together in one place
Spirit of truth and grace
We sing a love that sets all people free
If you believe and I believe
Amen Siyakudumisa
Lord of the church
Hosanna, hosanna
My Jesus, My Saviour
Hallelujah! sing to Jesus
Lord, I lift your name on high
Christ is the world’s redeemer
Light of the world
Spirit of God, unseen as the wind
We come as guests invited
Peace, perfect peace
Lord of all power, I give you my will

Alleluya! Alleluya! Hearts to heaven and voices raise
At your feet we fall
Now the green blade riseth
To be in your presence
I know that my Redeemer lives
See what a morning!
Spirit of truth and grace
At your feet we fall
God forgave my sin
If Christ had not been raised from death
Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
God in his wisdom, for our learning
I heard the voice of Jesus say
Alleluia, alleluia
Now is Christ risen from the dead
The strife is o’er
Come, living God, when least expected
Christ is alive! Let Christians sing
A new commandment
O Christ the King of glory

Praise My Soul the King of Heaven
There’s a song for all the children
Put Peace In To Each Other’s Hands
Fathers and mothers, sisters and brothers
He’s got the whole world
We sing the praise of him who died
Here Is Love Vast As The Ocean
Morning glory, starlit sky
My Lord, what love is this (Amazing love)
Lift up your hearts
All glory, laud and honour
You Are The King of Glory
My song is love unknown
Jesus, remember me
When I survey the wondrous cross
Great God, your love has called us here
God everlasting, wonderful and holy
We come as guests invited
Eat this bread, drink this cup
Now let us from this table rise
There is a green hill far away
O sacred head, once wounded
When I survey the wondrous cross
Jesus Christ is Risen Today
All Heaven Declares
Your Kingdom Come (Mayenziwe ‘ntando yakho )
Lord of the Dance
Broken for Me, Broken for You
Bread of the World in Mercy Broken
Thine Be the Glory

As we are gathered
Breathe On Me Breath Of God
At The Name of Jesus
Purify my heart
Loved before the dawn of time (Salvation Song)
Forty days and forty nights 
Father, hear the prayer we offer
Be Thou my guardian and my guide
Nada te turbe 
O Jesus, I have promised 
Awake our souls, away our fears 
Open our eyes, Lord 
Turn your eyes upon Jesus 
Bless the Lord, my soul 
The God of Abraham praise
I come with joy to meet my Lord
All who are thirsty
Purify my heart
Faithful God 
Fight the good fight 

Sing to God with joy and gladness
Speak O Lord
God is love
Ubi caritas
Love Divine all Loves Excelling
O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness
Like a Candle Flame
Brightest and best of the sons of the morning
What child is this
Christ is the world’s true light
On Jordan’s Bank the Baptist’s Cry
Thou who wast rich
Hail To The Lord’s Anointed
The Lord is my light
Christ be the Lord of all our days
We bow down
Spirit of the Living God
In our darkness light has shone
Jesus is Lord
Glorious things of Thee are spoken
Be Thou my vision
In Christ alone
You are called to tell the story
The Lord’s My Shepherd (Townend)
Shine Jesus Shine
Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire
Veni, sancte spiritus

Away in a manger
Hark, the herald
See, amid the winter’s snow
Hark! The glad sound
People, look East to see at last

When the King shall come again

Great is the darkness
Within the darkest night
Lo, he comes with clouds descending
All people that on earth do dwell
Put thou thy trust in God
Body broken for our good
O God, our help in ages past
Eternal ruler of the ceaseless round
Come, now is the time of worship
Purify my heart
Lord, we come to ask your healing
A new commandment I give unto you
Lord of all power, I give you my will
Christ is the King, O friends rejoice
Majesty
For the healing of the nations
