Lent is a special season to ponder Jesus and His unbelievable work of salvation.
It’s useful to set aside a specific season in the church calendar to reflect on the price of our sin and the outrageous grace with which Christ saves us!
Lent is also a time to consider our response to our God and renew our commitment to Him.
Song themes to consider when selecting good worship songs for the Lenten season are repentance, hope, waiting, expectation, renewal, confession and so on.
These Lenten worship songs are more for the season before the start of Holy Week.
Most of the songs in this list are contemporary songs—so worship teams would have little challenges in incorporating them into their set lists.
During church services in this season, appropriate worship songs can help us in such reflections.
