Introduction
The Christian church recognizes two most important holy days in the liturgical year. They are Christmas and Easter. Both
of these holy days celebrations have been woven deep into the fabric of different cultures throughout the ages. Music and
song are important parts of each celebration. Included in this book are beloved hymns that can be used in worship during the
preparation for Christmas and Easter.
Advent is a season of expectant preparation and celebration of Jesuss coming at Christmas. It begins on the fourth Sunday
before Christmas. This book includes a total of six services for the Advent and Christmas season: four services for each
themed Sunday of Advent, a Christmas Eve service, and a Christmas service.
Lent is a six-week period of preparation and remembrance ending on Easter Sunday. We are to prepare our hearts and
remember the new life we have because of Jesuss sacrifice on the cross for our sins. This book includes a total of six services
for the Lent and Easter season: four services for each themed Sunday of the Lent celebration, a Good Friday service, and an
Easter Sunday service.
Unlike Advent, the first five Sundays between Ash Wednesday and Palm Sunday do not have universally accepted themes.
Appropriate hymns and themes that look towards the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ were used to fill that void.
Each of the 48 hymns included in this book have an easy instrumental line, chord diagrams, standard tablature, and lyrics.
Recordings of the hymns are included on the enclosed DVD-ROM. In addition, the disc contains software to help you
practice, and PDF lyric sheets that can be printed and distributed to the congregation. To access all these materials, please
