In big church, I find myself humming the tune of Happy Birthday to You when we read, “Marvel not that I said… marvel not that I said… marvel not that I said unto thee ye must be born again” John 3 verse 7.
All because the songs by the Harrow family have tucked the Lord’s Word into our hearts. Bible memorization is so very important but often a difficult skill to set aside time to practice. For us, singing has been the simplest way of memorizing. We use Sing the Word.

Sing the Word for Bible Memorization
I found this resource early in our homeschool journey through Sonlight curriculum. We started with Sing the Word A to Z and A New Commandment.
How our family uses this resource:
- For individual learning – for the littlest ones – adding a scripture song to a morning room time recording. Older ones pick songs to listen to during afternoon quiet time.
- Popping in a CD in the car. Everyone learning all at once – even parents. It just has to be practical for us to get it done!
- One Christmas, each of the children received a Sing the Word title for their ‘spiritual’ gift. There was a bundle of four titles offered with a free download of Quiet Time – perfect for our five.

We have been enjoying Sing The Word as well. We do a Letter of the Week curriculum so I have been using the A-Z one. 🙂
