Bruderhof Music
We are an intentional Christian community of more than 3,000 people living in twenty-eight settlements on four continents. We are a fellowship of families and singles, practicing radical discipleship in the spirit of the first church in Jerusalem.
As anyone who has visited us knows, we do a lot of singing at the Bruderhof. We sing in our homes, in our schools, at communal mealtimes, and in our worship services. We sing songs of praise and worship, Easter hymns and Christmas carols. But we’re not limited to just that; we sing songs borrowed from all around the world – songs covering all the seasons of the year. Some of these songs are written by folks from our communities, sometimes even by children. Some are just good old classics we love. And in all our singing, it’s not about performance or perfection, but about the joy that comes when hearts and voices unite.
So we’ve decided to share some of the rich musical treasures from our vast repertoire with you.
Enjoy. And sing along.
