"Kenaniah"
by Bob Hartman, John Lawry, & Danny Klingen
Kenaniah of the Levites
appointed by the king
To teach the songs of Zion,
to lead them as they sing
Your song is not forgotten,
we hear it in our souls
Let it burn and burn within us
(And) Fan the sacred coals
Kenaniah, Kenaniah,
we will sing your ancient song
Kenaniah, Kenaniah,
we will sing it loud and strong
Gathered for the battle,
Kenaniah led the way
As the singers closely followed him
they all began to pray
The musicians all assembled,
Kenaniah gave the word
Through the raging battle zone
the anthem could be heard
Sing unto Jehovah of his wonderous ways
Sing a song of triumph, sing a victory song
And in the cloud of witnesses
Kenaniah sings along.
Kenaniah, Kenaniah,
we will sing your ancient song
Kenaniah, Kenaniah,
we will sing it loud and strong
KenaniahSings! is based on the song "Kenaniah" by Christian Rock band Petra. The song is derived from I Chron. 15:22,27, where Kenaniah sang before the Ark of the Covenant as it was brought into the Temple in Jerusalem. Altho Kenaniah served the Lord in a different way from many others, his contribution was vital & alive. KenaniahSings! will consider what it means to be a Christian & how each Christian contributes to the Body in their own unique way. Welcome!
Thank you for posting that, AM. That means a lot to me right now, and it particularly aids me in getting ready to go lead worship for the youth at CPC tonight. Thank you so very much.
