The Westminster Shorter Catechism set to music.
I originally created this for a teaching tool for the children at Trinity Presbyterian Church, in Providence, RI, but by God kind providence and grace, word of it somehow got to some missionaries in China, and they've been using it for several years now.

It took me several years, and several rewrites of these tunes (all are original, with the exception of 4 by classical composers: Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart) in order to create this complete set of all 107 answers to the WSC questions. I can neither read music nor play a musical instrument. But I was able to get ahold of some annotation software and put each track together, note by note (there were no "magic buttons" to create anything), and then layer my voice(s) over them.

These "kiddie pop" tunes, as I call them, as corny as they are, might be catchy enough to stick in your mind, and bring these precious doctrines to remembrance, as you have time to consider them, unpack them, meditate upon them, and the Scriptures from which they are derived.

The Lord bless you and keep you;
The Lord life His countenance upon you, and give you peace;
The Lord make His face to shine upon you, and be gracious unto you!
