Not too long ago, I created a Gratitude Workbook and Resource Guide to help with initiating a heart of gratitude in your daily life. It is so easy to get stuck in the “woe is me, I don’t have…, so my life is awful” rut. In 2016, after making a conscience effort to incorporate gratitude into my daily life and looking for opportunities to be thankful, my perspective changed. I kept a daily journal to record everything and recognized a significate change in how I viewed life in general. Eventually, I found myself to be more joyful and didn’t compare myself to others as often. Because, let’s be honest, we all struggle with this sometimes. Occasionally, I would catch myself saying “Thank You, Lord” out loud for random things. Unquestionably, this started by having a spirit of gratitude and a heart for worship.
This resource guide is filled with verses, questions to consider, and worship songs to help with your daily gratitude exercises.
Here’s your personal copy of the
Graditute Workbook and Resource Guide
After the release of the guide, there were so many comments about the song selection that was included, I decided to comprise a list of worship songs that are sure to take you in. I know we all have our preferences in music genres. Some enjoy lit gospel songs, while others, lit Christian songs, and for the millennials, hip hop church songs. I personally listen to all types, and I have included both Gospel and Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) in this post.
Note: These songs are not in any order of LITness, only grouped together by the artist.

As you can see, all of these songs are not necessarily popular church songs. Some of them you may not have even heard of, but trust me, they are amazing worship songs.
You can access some of these songs by checking out my Spotify playlist. If you don’t already have Spotify, you can download it for free.
Let me hear it. What are some songs that take you in? Comment them below.
This song list is definitely lit!!!!! Thanks for sharing your playlist.

This is the most exhaustive praise & worship song list I’ve seen yet! I have been up late every night this week having a wonderful time praising God for what is and what will be!
And so many more. But, you’ve introduced me to many new ones too!

Thank you for the playlist. I can use these songs on my way to work 🙂
Thank you for this! I had no idea you could get things like this through text 🙂
You have no idea, what a beautiful name by Hillsong is my favorite song of 2018 to lead worship with. It’s probably been in 40% of my setlists since January, haha 🙂 The bridge is so powerful too, and of course I love Brooke so that’s what got me on to the song. There’s more resources here for it: https://worshipchords.com/hillsong-worship/what-a-beautiful-name-chords/ Thanks for all your posts Tiffani, loved the latest devotional <3
thanks for sharing that’s really nice songs
thanks for sharing
Hi Tahsin! I’m glad you were blessed. Thanks for stopping by!
This is officially the best thing I have seen this week. Interestingly I was just thinking to myself how I need a comprehensive list of worship songs and you came to my rescue. Thank you so much for taking your time to compile this helpful list. As a worship leader, it’s really important to me.
