Please advise where I may purchase and or download the song “Sons of God”. I remember it from the 60′s also but somehow I think it goes under a different name in the catholic book of Communal songs. Just recently i heard it sung in Spanish (I recognized the melody and the guitar and it moved me to tears….was 42 years since I last heard it..1966

I am also Lutheran but growing up in the church throught the late 70′s on. We sang all the songs you mention and it is one of the reasons I still like the church. I love all of those songs. I particularly like Sons of God mainly because my mother sang it around the house all the time for some reason and it make me think of her as she is gone. Yes the words were disturbing to a young person but did lead to great conversation. My pastor did have a technical answer for me on the subject as so many of my neighbors where/are catholic. He and now I think it is both/and – symbol and actual in some way. Hope you end up reading this 4 years later

I remember singing this song in my Lutheran elementary school choir. It has a youthful/ innocent melody but the lyrics are grotesque– even vampiric.
