Here’s a video from my Church‘s Open Mic night. Enjoy!



In Your People: Song

By Tripp Fuller • Feb 17th, 2009 • Category: living, songs

My best friend and roomie in college, Mike Goodman, wrote this song together.  It is a simple worship song on a topic rarely touched in most contemporary worship gatherings, namely the unity of the church and its mission of justice.  Hope you enjoy it. In Your People



For the Love of God

By Tripp Fuller • Feb 3rd, 2009 • Category: living, songs

Here’s a little anthem to my own depravity.  This particular trip to hopeless lane was initiated by a little dead-end theodicy thinking, a blunt realization of my passive participation in systemic injustice, and the recognition that I didn’t have the courage, energy, faith, or what ever I needed to change.  I would say I hope [...]



Coming?: Advent Song 4

By Tripp Fuller • Dec 17th, 2008 • Category: songs

I just got over a cold, so I haven’t been able to record any new advent songs until today.  This is one I wrote a few years ago for the Christmas Eve service at my home church.  We pack into a freezing cold barn, sit on barrels of hay, and sing songs between the Christmas [...]



Hark! A Thrilling Voice is Sounding: Advent Song 3

By Tripp Fuller • Dec 2nd, 2008 • Category: songs

In Luke’s telling of the Christ child’s coming there is music running throughout.  These songs are both substantially important, but also there is something to gain in recognizing that the joy of Advent is best expressed in song.  So I sat around googleing Advent hymns until I found one that I thought had the, ‘oh [...]



Remembering with Love and Hope: Advent Song 2

By Tripp Fuller • Nov 24th, 2008 • Category: songs

Love and Hope are two of the themes of Advent and in this song a connection is drawn between the definitive arrival of God’s Love and Hope in Christ and the invitation for us to participate in their coming.  No better place is that made visible than the communion table.  There all may come, no [...]



View the Present through the Promise: Advent Song 1

By Tripp Fuller • Nov 21st, 2008 • Category: songs, worship

I have been working on a number of things for advent and one of them is arranging and writing some advent songs that could be used in contemporary worship gatherings or with student groups and such.  The first is a wonderful song called, ‘View the Present through the Promise’ which I found the lyrics to [...]



Song for Alecia, my wife, who goes Rev. today!!!!

By Tripp Fuller • Jun 1st, 2008 • Category: living, songs

I have been sporting my ‘Real Men Marry Ministers’ T-shirt this weekend in anticipation of Alecia’s ordination this Sunday at 4. I am pretty pumped and will be doing a couple things during the service, but what I am most excited about is playing an arrangement of the old hymn ‘I have decided to follow [...]



Song for the Primary: Peace of War

By Tripp Fuller • May 2nd, 2008 • Category: living, songs

Tuesday May 6th we will be having our primary here in NC so decided to record and post this song. Ever since 9-11 fear has been such a key element of politics in America and has funded a good deal of violence. I have not thought the same about violence, war, and Christian participation in [...]



New Song: Thy Nature and Thy Name

By Tripp Fuller • Apr 24th, 2008 • Category: songs

I co-wrote this tune with brother Wesley, had a little inspiration by this book, and wanted to sing a worship song that centered on the redemptive work of the God who is love in the world. It is my Youth Group’s favorite song. I even heard it on a student’s Ipod after ‘solider boy.’ Check [...]
