A companion book of sheet music is also available, making it even easier to use these songs in your church. Contemporary hymn by Keith Getty & Stuart Townend Keith Getty and Stuart Townend's contemporary hymn gets a stunning new choral treatment from arranger, Lloyd Larson, just in time for the Easter season. Songs like “We Believe (Apostle’s Creed)” or the wonderful “The Lord Is My Salvation” aren’t specifically written for children but could very well become favorites.

It is easy to imagine this album being played in the car or at bedtime. Because the Gettys’ tunes are grounded in Irish folk music, kids will pick up on the melodies quickly.

Aside from the children’s voices, this doesn’t sound like an album for children.īut Getty Kids Hymnal – In Christ Aloneis a children’s album. The album opens with the title track In Christ Alone sung by Alison Krauss and Keith & Kristyn Getty. Keith Getty and his wife, Kristyn, are behind some of today’s most beloved hymns, including He Will Hold Me Fast, Christ Our Hope in Life and Death and The Power of the Cross. When the Gettys turned their attention to making an album for children, they did not stray from what they do best: they chose some of their recent songs, found children who sing in tune, and had their regular band come in to accompany them.
Their music is noteworthy because the melodies are easily sung by congregations and because the texts are rich and theologically sound. Keith and Kristyn Getty have been producing thoughtful, well-written and -recorded worship music for over 15 years.
