This week’s featured song story comes to us from Anne Wilson. We’re excited to share with you the story behind her song “Sunday Sermons.”
“My song Sunday Sermons is the story of growing up in Church where deep roots began to take hold. As a little girl I had truth surrounding me every week, even though I didn’t accept Jesus into my heart until I was in the 7th grade. After becoming a Christian I finally realized how God had been building a foundation of truth as I was growing up on those Sunday sermons. As the years went by, I’ve been reminded how much God loved me every time I walked into Church. And no matter what happens I know I can stand on God’s truth.” – Anne Wilson

“Sunday Sermons” Lyrics
Seven years old, third row pew
John 3:16, something changed in me
Red letters coming off the page
Flooding my heart with amazing grace
I knew then I believed
And those roots run deep
Oh I been through some faith shaking hard times Yeah
But nothing’s gonna make me forget
Every one of those Sunday sermons
Every time that choir would sing
I could hear my Savior calling, telling me how much He loves me
No matter what the world throws at me
I know His word is true
It all started with heart stirring, spirit moving Sunday Sermons
Devil gonna try and take me out of that church
But you can’t take the church out of me
Gonna have my worries, well that’s part of life
But then I think of those stories ‘bout what my God can do
He’s still moving like He did back then
Born again people, can I get an amen?
We’ve all seen the proof
He makes all things new
Even all those faith shaking hard times, yeah
I never wanna stop remembering
Jesus loves me
This I know
For the Bible tells me so
Jesus loves me
Ain’t no doubt
So I’m gonna keep on talking ‘bout
Every one of those Sunday sermons
Every time that choir would sing
I could hear my Savior calling, telling me how much He loves me
No matter what the world throws at me
I know I’ll make it through
All because of those heart stirring, spirit moving Sunday Sermons
