Question 1

Why sing The Grace?

Accepted Answer

The Grace sets the benediction of 2 Corinthians 13:14 to a simple, compelling melody so congregations can declare it over one another in song, week after week. There are many songs on the Old Testament Aaronic Blessing but very few on this New Testament, Trinitarian benediction.

Question 2

Is this meant as a final song?

Accepted Answer

Yes — it is designed as a worship benediction.

Question 3

What’s a good closing worship song for any Sunday?

Accepted Answer

Churches often look for a closing song that offers assurance, blessing, commissioning and renewed hope. The Grace is especially suited as a final benediction: it sets 2 Corinthians 13:14 to a Celtic melody in 6/8 that congregations can sing confidently, even with just guitar and voices. Go Into All The World, Freedom’s Slave and Here We Stand also work well as closing songs.
