I think he would like to take a break from worshiping and enjoy a few good Irish jigs and maybe do a little dancing. He wants to have fun, too.
So if Jesus came to dinner, what would you play?
What wondrous Love it this, oh my soul, oh my soul.....ends with the words, "and when from death I'm free, I'll sing on, I'll sing on................I'll sing and joyful be and through Eternity I'll sing on.......
There are other songs I'd sing, but I'd ask what tunes He knew....What psalms He and the Apostles sang and I'd ask Him to sing to me those songs. aloha, irene
I think I would play Just as I Am........
How fitting to humbly play my music for the King!
If That Isn't Love - Dottie Rambo
Second Choice
Mary Did You Know - Mark Lowry / Buddy Green
You can think of something to play for Jesus if he just was going finish dessert and coffee, @hugssandi
Knowing the way I play, I'd be making all kinds of excuses & apologies, but Let Us Break Bread Together comes to mind.
OH that's a great question!!! I have no idea....
After Hangman's Reel, I'd play Jesus an original tune or two that Mark & I put together. So I wouldn't have to change tuning to change keys, I'd offer our Quittin' Time at Essex Mine since it's also in the key of A and tell Jesus how each of Mark's grandfathers worked at Essex Mine at one time or another.PS- Not that I think our original tunes are so great-- it'd just be fun to play them for Jesus! :)
I'm going to change it to if "so and so" came to dinner as while I do play songs out of the hymnal, I am more spiritual then religious, if that makes sense. Mine would be Ode to Joy, In The Sweet Bye and Bye and Wildwood Flower.
I'd be playing Jesus some fiddle tunes! Likely, I'd tune to the key of A and play Hangman's Reel for starters-- it's such a fun tune and I like the AABBCCDD structure.
There are certain songs that are just good. Always good, everyone seems to love them and you never get tired of hearing their pretty melodies.
For me, one of those would be Lee's Waltz. If I was demonstrating the beauty of the dulcimer for a new listener, I'm pretty certain that'd be what I'd play.
What are some songs you play that never seem to grow old and make you smile when you hear them?
(I'm definitely going to check out any and all songs listed!) :)
