A few years ago I belonged to a homeschool co-op, where I taught many little ones my songs. Here are some of their parents' comments:
Rosa: My daughter had a bad dream. I sang "For God has not given us a spirit of fear..." [2 Tim. 1:7] She settled down. Now every night after we pray together I go right into singing the verses. Sometimes [my children] sing along; soon they fall asleep. I don't leave the room until I'm done with all the verses! 2/25/19
Rosa: I have never memorized Scripture. Now I know them, just because of your songs!
Joelle told me that sometimes her young daughter will say, "I'm scared! I'm scared!" at bedtime. Joelle says, "Let's sing our songs." As they sing, she goes right to sleep. 2/25/19 Hallelujah!
Laura M: Thank you for your patience and kindness with my children and for always sharing your heart and amazing Scripture songs! 12/2018
Ianni: We asked Caleb his verse, Rev. 3:20, and he still remembers it. 7/17/19
I [Jenny] taught 2 Timothy 1:7 to our Bible Study, seven ladies. A couple of comments the next day:
Sandy: “For your website we should sing it at church. I remembered it all this morning. It works”
Kerry: “It's been playing in my head 😀 ...Great job”
And more reasons to praise God:
Lydia: "My kids love and memorize songs so easily. So to be able to teach them the word of God through something they already love and comes easily to them is a true blessing. It makes my job as a mother less overwhelming." 5/4/21
Joel [Jenny's son]: "These are Scripture songs my mom instilled into me and my siblings from when we were toddlers. I've sung them countless times, and they've gotten me through many hard times. Music is such a fun and effective way to memorize, and now even in my adult life I sing the Word of God to myself over and over again. Learn them, teach them to your children, reap the benefits of having God's Word swirling around in your mind daily. What a blessing!" 5/5/21
Sophie G: "I wanted to share a testimony about how Jenny's "Memorize By Song" helped me fall into a peaceful sleep. I was struggling with the inability to sleep for a while and it even started to feel torturous as I lay there all night with my eyes open and my mind racing. I tried everything I knew, nothing worked!!
I was so tired and my body felt beat up! The next night I felt prompted to put Jenny's new [Concert Of Hope] loop on to try to fall asleep with the Word of God. Before the loop was even finished Gods word had delivered me and next thing I knew it was morning !! 🙌.... I hadn't slept like that in a long time! I tried it again last night and it worked again !! Jenny's songs are definitely anointed by the Word of God and have the power to deliver from whatever we struggle with!!" 5/21/25
And again from Sophie: Still sleeping well with your loop every night 💤.. 🙌 6/9/25
Many years ago as I was reading Scripture I began to sing it to the Lord as He gave me the melody. Not only is there joy in singing His words back to Him, but it also causes the Scripture to be memorized. I will admit the "catchier" melodies tend to bring my focus to the music, but the ones that have a more challenging musical pattern bring my attention to the words of the text. Originally I neglected to include the reference.
A year or two ago the Lord began to give me songs again as I read His word, and not long after brought Jenny into my life. She encouraged me to include the reference as part of the song and I wish I had done it sooner because although I can sing the older songs, I don't know where to find them. However, it is delightful to be reading the Bible and suddenly break out into song when I run across one of those verses from years ago!
-- Diane H. 8/5/25
Hallelujah - Revelation 19[:1-6 NIV with repeats] [Feel free to repeat as often as you'd like, even modulating on the first "lu" (for musicians).]
[The way this song recorded, it sounds like someone is singing along with me. Maybe it's the great multitude or the twenty-four elders and four living creatures who are singing in Rev. 19! This is the only place in the New Testament where the word "hallelujah" or "alleluia" is found. In the Book of Psalms, when it says "Praise the Lord," it is usually the Hebrew words "halal" and "Yah," where we get "hallelujah," which is the same in just about every language on earth, and can mean "celebrate God wildly!" So we do celebrate our amazing God for all He is doing in our lives. Glory, Glory, Glory to His holy name!]
I hope you are praising God with us. Now it's your turn! Have you been helped by Memorize By Song or singing any word-for-word Scripture songs? Let me know on the Memorize By Song Facebook page (or see above). All glory to God!
