"My Lips Will Praise You"

My lips will praise You for You are holy.

My voice will ever rise before Your throne.

My heart will love You for you are lovely.

And You have called me to become Your own.

Worship through music is the focus of the entire music ministry at First Baptist Church. We believe that this is not reserved for our musicians alone but involves all the members of our congregation. Our emphasis is not on performance, but rather is centered on making music that glorifies God.
