Music and Song in Worship:
Music and song have always been central to how God's people worship and praise their Creator. The Psalms of the Bible were the hymns of ancient Israel and, throughout out the history of the Church, God's people have used songs to proclaim his deeds and mercies to us. Everything from "A Mighty Fortress", to Handel^s "Messiah", to "Amazing Grace", to the best of contemporary Christian music are all expressions of the worship of the church throughout the world and in at times. At ORLC we continue this tradition of worshiping our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ through music and song.
