Christian Recessional Song

kaleighrg · April 2013

My fiance wants to do a christian recessional song and wants it to be geared towards God, but I also don't want it to be depressing. Any ideas for upbeat contemporary christian recessional songs?

Welcome!

I'm currently in love with Planetshakers - they have some great music.

I'd say check out Chris Tomlin, Mikes Chair, Toby Mac and the Newsboys as well.

I can think of so many Contemporary Christian Songs that are upbeat. Do you and the FI want something more "love song-ish" or just generally fun Christian Songs?

TobyMac's "Eye on It" has two I can think of right away... Me without You, and Made for me. Or Britt Nicole's Gold CD has a few.

I would suggest turning on K-Love and keep your ears well tuned. Most of their songs are postive, upbeat and all contemporary. They are the complete opposite of depressing.

We used "Ode to Joy" which is a popular wedding song, but it's the same tune as "Joyful, Joyful, we Adore Thee" - we found a recording that wasn't slow (can't remember the website), it was upbeat and literally "Joyful" which was perfect for ending the ceremony. It was only the musical verson, no words, but the majority of our guests knew the song.

ETA: Just looked it up - it was from the album "A Day to Remember" by the O'Neill Brothers. I downloaded from a website as an mp3 for very little money (like $1 or $2 maybe), but I don't know the website.

Love Song by Third Day

This is such a sweet song describing how great the love of God is for us. I like this one because I don't feel like it takes away from the romance of a wedding.

All My Life by Rosie Thomas

Not exaclty God-focused, but gives credit to God for putting you two together.

He Reigns- Newsboys

Really joyful song, and definitely focused on God. It's doesn't seem particular "weddingish", but it's not depressing.

These are the songs we used (if they didn't have a specific use, we played them during the reception). I surprised DH with a Star Wars song for the recessional, but we would have used one of the ones on the list below if I hadn't (he thought I had picked one of the Relient K songs).
