CCO Songs for Singing 2020/21

As the CCO seeks to engage college students through the hands of the local church, we have compiled a song list designed to strengthen the worship of student-led campus meetings as well as encourage unity amongst staff at CCO gatherings.

There are many great music resources for Christians, but selections that are singable for the average voice, yet artistically satisfying and theologically appropriate, are often hard to find. This is far from an exhaustive list of good songs to sing. Rather, this collection was submitted by the CCO community as recommendations​ ​for our worship and examples​ of different musical resources that fit in the context of our ministry needs for the 2020/21 academic year.

In an effort to preach (and sing) the whole Gospel, this year we have included Scripture references​ for each song. We also categorized them into three theological perspectives that provide context for how to use each song (Personal redemption,​ ​covenant people,​ and​ Kingdom labor)​​ . The goal is that our singing would not just be a fun ritual, but that it would enable sincere worship for a diversity of students and ministries.
