Have you ever been asked to memorize Scripture or tried to memorize Scripture? I’m in a Bible Study called Community Bible Study and this year we are studying the book of Daniel. I LOVE the book of Daniel. It’s so refreshing to see a young man who continued to be faithful to God despite being held captive in a foreign country.
Daniel was able to interpret the dream that foretold of the future kingdoms to come. The words in Daniel 2:20-22 are words of praise Daniel spoke when God revealed the dream and its meaning to him. This was our first memory verse and I loved making it into a song.
The song is in the key of A and starts with a little decending bass run. There are many way to write a song. I talk about several of them in the Music Theory for Guitar lessons. I posted a lesson on 4 Ways to Change a Song that you might enjoy watching.
Memorizing Scripture is a wonderful practice and putting songs to music make it easier to remember. I’m planning on putting several of the books of the Bible to music…at least the teaching parts.
