    Outward Focused Song Index

    where world and worship meet Songs Outward-focused song index This index brings together a range of songs which we have used and particularly want to recommend. We have listed them under main headings to help you find what you need, plus given some indication of what each song focuses on and how it can be used. These songs are taken from a number of different networks and streams, and reflect quite a diversity in both content and approach. However, this is not an exhaustive list of outward-focused songs. You may be aware of others already – please continue to use them. It also doesn’t include more traditional hymns – instead, you can use topical indexes in hymn and song anthologies to find these. SECTION TITLES – you can either scroll through the document or click on one of the section titles summarised below to go straight to the section you want to look at: 1. Specific justice songs – suitable for congregational worship 2. Specific justice songs – more useful for interactive worship or performance (rather than corporate singing) 3. A few examples of songs which resonate and promote the Biblical context if you use them in a justice setting but will not necessarily raise the issues out of context 4. Songs which are not about justice issues but resonate strongly when used in that context, or with slightly altered words 5. Songs which move from or combine personal/corporate intimacy and outward-focussed intercession or proclamation 6. Intercession songs for our nation, or the nations, or songs which declare and promote a national or international vision for revival, mission or outreach 7.
