For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16 to the tune of “Silent Night”
This song is a great way to share the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ with others in one single verse, the most popular and most impactful verse of scripture. It is John 3:16 and it is sung to the tune of the popular carol “Silent Night” that is typically sung in celebration of the Lord’s birth.
Scripture songs are songs that incorporate scripture and are set to unique or well-known melodies, sometimes with other musical accompaniment. They are a formidable way to learn the Word of God and commit to memory all the comforting truths therein.

Psalm 119:105 (KJV)
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Psalm 119, sung as a Scripture Song
The complete and unaltered text of Psalm 119 from the King James Bible in the form of musical settings composed and arranged by Frederick Steinruck, Michael Misiaszek, and Michael E. Owens. Feel free to download the mp3 files here in their entirety to aid your Bible memorisation efforts.
It is said that every verse in Psalm 119 refers to God’s Word in some way, whether it be His law, testimonies, ways, precepts, statutes, commandments and so on. How wonderful is God’s Word!
William Wilberforce, the famous abolitionist who campaigned for the abolition of slavery in the 1800’s until he died, memorised the entire chapter (yes, all 176 verses!) and would recite the chapter in 20 mins to and from Parliament. Read more about it here.
On the 26th July 1833, three days before Wilberforce passed away into eternity, he was informed that Parliament finally passed the Slavery Abolition Bill, to give freedom to slaves in the British Empire. Glory to God.
