Music is a very important part of our worship at First Baptist in Amarillo, Texas. Psalm 100 describes joyful singing and shouts, entering the worship of God with thanksgiving and praise. All of the music activities at First Baptist in some way prepare us for the worship of our Almighty God. Our intent is to adults, students, and children to lead worship both in the church and beyond. 

The Music Ministry provides a continuing program of activities and worship opportunities for choirs and instrumental ensembles of all ages. From the 100+ voices in the sanctuary choir to the music offered for preschoolers, the music ministry is active and growing. Youth, Children, and Adults alike lead in worship services and serve in missions throughout the year. 

Membership is open in all groups. The weekly rehearsals serve not only as practice sessions, but also as times of worship and encouragement. Each person is encouraged and taught to honor God by using their individual gifts.
