Not every song has a bridge. A bridge helps to break up the repetition of a song and to hold on the listener's attention. It usually has several characteristics that are similar with either the verse or the chorus, but has its own distinct sound to it. It can serve as a calming section from a high-energy chorus to a more gentle ending, or it could serve as an energy-builder, for a more vibrant ending. Most bridges are located after the second chorus, bridging to the final chorus.
For the most part, most modern songs follow a pattern similar to this: Verse-Chorus-Verse-Chorus-Bridge-Chorus However, any variation of this is possible and if it can be done, it probably has been.

Some say that the entire Bible was originally written in verse. While this could be debated, it is undeniable that poetry has a large part of in the Bible. Over 25% of the Bible consists of poetry. Much of the poetic structure has been lost in the translation of the Bible from the original languages in which it was written. It is possible that so much is poetry because poetry tends to be somewhat easier to remember. On the other hand, some think that this is caused by the fact that changing even one word can ruin the meaning. A changed word would not have made sense and would have been a flag for error. However, this is all suggestions. Put your thinking caps on a see how many other explanations you can come up with.

Poetry and songwriting are an open opportunity to express ideas and thoughts. They are also open for interpretation by the hearers. The images that these create are very different and far more graceful than the images that everyday speech creates. Just like any other type of art, there are ways to create quality, as well as downright immoral poetry and songs. Often the most subtle influences of evil are slipped into the words, and the power for good that could be had is lost. Anything that can be taken by the audience in a bad or immoral way should be avoided or at least carefully considered, especially since we are the authors. Writing any of these forms of art should be written in a way that God is not dishonored in any way.
Again, this is a discussion. Discuss away!

This is for you. Let your creative juices flow! Remember to ask yourself if Jesus would approve of it! If you are hesitant to show it to your instructor, reconsider what you are saying in it. Have fun!

Requirement 13a could be done by making a prerecorded video, or performed live during a video conference. Requirement 13c can be done while maintaining social distance. |
13a
Ideas for this could be a video, a narration for a skit following the written words, or any number of other options. This is meant to be open for discussion within the group. Be creative!
13b
Or anywhere similar to this. There is no wrong way to do this, so be creative!
13c
This does not have to be a video watching the author(s) read or sing it. Video the performance at a talent show, a special music in church, or create a nature video to go along with it.
