Inspirational music takes many forms… spiritual, classical, gospel, folk, pop and even rock! There are many ways that we express the wide range of human emotions and messages of love, compassion, joy and hope. Music helps us to express our full human experience which also includes our loss, our sadness, our suffering, our abandonment, our anger and our fear. Being a spiritual person includes being a human and all that entails. Some of these performances are classics from times past… and some are more current but they all have the ability to inspire, enhance and uplift your daily experience. Some may not seem "inspirational" to you until you listen closely to the message in the words. On occassion, more than one version of a particular song is provided because of the unique gifts of the various artists in giving their personal rendition.
Please use this page freely, especially during days of reduced energy and challenge. The gifts that these artists bring us are truly a blessing to us all. We encourage you to share these with your family and friends.
The playing time of the videos follows the artists’ name in brackets… i.e. [3:27] means that the video is 3 minutes and 27 seconds long. The videos on this page are added-to regularly so check back often. Make sure your sound is on. You may find that good headphones provide you with the most moving experience. Relax and enjoy!
