In 1998, my mother began creating short melodies and setting them to verses of Holy Scripture, to teach my siblings and myself Christian principles straight from God’s Word. Now our collection includes over 500 verses of scripture. In my time as composer, I have composed or arranged nearly 300 of these “scripture songs.”
The large body of scripture songs are housed on a website run by Atrium of Light, a group consisting of myself and my 3 siblings. You can visit Atrium of Light’s website here for free downloads and access to our library of hundred of scripture songs: http://atriumoflight.com. You can also access recordings of scripture songs on the Atrium of Light Scripture Songs YouTube page.
I include below links to download batches of scripture song PDFs that correspond to each year of the 4-year “Come, Follow Me” study cycle currently in use in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints:
1. Old Testament
2. New Testament
3. Book of Mormon
4. Doctrine and Covenants
These batches offer 52 songs, 1 per week, that you can learn using single sheet music. Recordings of most of these songs are available at Atrium of Light website and YouTube page (see links above).
In addition, I include sheet music packets that my mother and I have written for the follow three prophetic proclamations. Recordings can be found at Atrium of Light.
1. The Family: A Proclamation to the World (1995, music written by Laura Madsen in 2021)
2. The Living Christ (2000, music written by CJ Madsen in 2023)
3. The Restoration of the Fulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (2020, music written by CJ Madsen in 2020)
Below the 4 year cycles and 3 proclamation song cycle settings, I have included a list of all the scripture verses I have set to music as composer or arranger. These verses can be found in sheet music and recordings form on the Atrium of Light website.
