The divine role of the Savior and the compassionate reach of his Atonement are the subjects of hundreds of songs throughout history. Most of us are familiar with inspiring hymns like “I Know that My Redeemer Lives” and “I Stand All Amazed,” but here are a few other great songs you won’t find in the hymnbook that will strengthen your testimony of Jesus Christ.
1. “Lamb of God” or Alt. “Hosanna,” composed by Rob Gardner, performed by Spire Chorus and the London Symphony Orchestra.
2. “Jesu, the Very Thought is Sweet,” composed by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, performed by The Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
3. “My Kindness Shall Not Depart from Thee,” composed by Rob Gardner, performed by Spire Chorus and the London Symphony Orchestra.
4. “Savior, Redeemer of My Soul,” composed by Rob Gardner, performed by Dallyn Vail Bayles.
5. “This is the Christ,” composed by James E. Faust, performed by The Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

Come Thou Fount.
Good choice!
Stories of Jesus: Songs for Children—the entire album by Melanie and Roger Hoffman. I’m a grandma and I listen to it all the time by myself. Also, Roger & Melanie’s very first recording of their now well-known “Consider the Lilies.” Love it!! That whole album, too (cassette tape. Wish they’d remaster it to CD).
