Songs of Hope and Encouragement

One of the first things we did when our daughter was getting her Boston brace was to compile a playlist of favorite songs that provide hope and encouragement.

We listen to a lot of Christian music artists in our home so the list is mainly selected from that genre, but not entirely.  A few are simply songs of friendship and support.  We find many of the lyrics talk about finding hope in God in the midst of hardship and pain, and about finding our worth in Him rather than in the world.

Here is what we have so far:

"Gold"                                  Britt Nicole 
"Angel by your Side"           Francesca Battistelli   
"The Sun Will Rise"            Kelly Clarkson
"Worn"                                Tenth Avenue North
"You're Not Alone"             Meredith Andrews
"Let the Waters Rise"          MIKESCHAIR
"Beautiful, Beautiful"          Francesca Battistelli
"Come to Me"                      Jamie Grace 
"The Sun is Rising"             Britt Nicole
"Always Enough"                Casting Crowns
"Sovereign"                         Chris Tomlin
"Be Still and Know"            Steven Curtis Chapman
"Not Alone"                         Jamie Grace
"Here"                                  Kari Jobe   
"He is With Us"                   Love & the Outcome
"Blue Sky"                           Francesca Battistelli
"Hold on to Jesus"               Steven Curtis Chapman
"By Your Side"                   Tenth Avenue North
"Lift Me Up"                       The Afters

I am sure we will be adding more to this playlist - we are open to suggestions for more songs to add to the list!
