Music Department

Our Music Department enriches worship experiences with uplifting melodies and harmonies to draw our hearts closer to God.

"Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord."

Psalm 150: 3-6

We are told to praise God 250 times throughout the Bible. Magnifying God’s holy and righteous name through praise and song is not only an important Christian tradition, it is a recurring scriptural command. Through music ministry, we engage and position ourselves into a place of deep worship, and it is often there that we find God.

At Colonial Beach Baptist Church, our Music Department plays a vital role in enhancing our worship services and fostering a sense of community through the power of music. Whether you're a seasoned musician or someone with a passion for making a joyful noise, there's a place for you in our diverse and welcoming musical family.

Our Musical Offerings

Variety in Every Service

Our services feature a balance of different musical styles, including contemporary praise music, soulful piano and instrumental solos, cherished hymns, choral performances, and pieces from various genres and historical periods. We are endlessly grateful that God has blessed our sanctuary with a beautiful baby grand piano, whose rich tones add a touch of elegance and depth to every musical moment.

Infinite Harmony Worship Music Ensemble

Join Infinite Harmony, our worship music ensemble that welcomes both singers and instrumentalists. This group collaboratively creates unique and meaningful musical experiences to elevate our worship. Annual highlights include the Christmas Cantata and Easter Cantata, where we strive to bring the stories of the season to life. We rehearse on Wednesdays from 7-8 PM in the Choir Room, and we hope to make music with you soon!
