Canaan Melodies

In 2023 I discovered the old hymnal of the Pentecostal Church of the Nazarene from 1914.
I so enjoyed these powerful songs of worship and holiness that I started recording them.
You can listen to them free on YouTube below.

Hope this will inspire you to make your entire consecration to the Lord!
