Worship Confessional: 4/6/08
This is a quick one this week everyone.
Great day! Third week in a row with Lynnora on violin. She plays that "Glory of it All" solo wonderfully! Great job to the team this week.
Here's the worship set list:
- How Can I Keep From Singing? (Bb) by Chris Tomlin - I love this song. It'd been awhile since we have played this one. I'm especially fond of the bridge " I can sing in the troubled times...sing when I win...I will sing with the angels and the saints around the throne"...Just awesome.
- Salvation is Here (B) by Hillsong United - I've been hearing from people in the church that this is their fave to sing right now.
- Glorious (D) by Chris Tomlin - It's been awhile for this one too. I've often thought about lowering the key on this one as it might be a little high for the men folk. However, they seem to do ok singing it an octive lower. Great song.
- Hosanna (E) by Hillsong United - One of my current faves. We rolled this out on Palm Sunday. I love the bridge on this song. "Heal my heart and make it clean, open up my eyes to the things unseen show me how to love like You have loved me..."
- The Glory of it All (B) by David Crowder - THIS is my current fave above all. I love singing this, and love playing it. I play my other guitar on this one since I tuned everything down a half step to get that ringing sound in the key of B while playing it in the C chord structure. Great lyrics and sound on this tune.
Quick notes about Sunday:
- Jason Henderson - Gave a brief story about how God has been working in his life through reading the Bible daily. Seriously...Jason did AWESOME. I think he could be a preacher some day. Thanks Jason for sharing your story!
- Sam Albertson - Did you see that new guitar? I have no idea what kind it is...so Sam...drop a comment and let me know what that's called. It's dangerous. I need to snap a photo and post it here.
- Scott Stanley - Utility man jumped on the guitar again. Thanks dude!!! Great job!
- Sequencing - Chris did some of this on "The Glory of it All" which was great. Playing to that keeps the band a little more precise. Great job to Thunderfoot for keeping us there.
- Week 2 of Indy - Tim had a great message on three important ways to read scripture. Looking thru the glasses of "Historical", "Doctrinal", and "Personal" applications. If you've never heard this taught...you need to listen here.
- Sickness - Once again, one of my daughters was sick in the night. I was feeling it during first service worship. A little dizzy while up there, but praise God we finished up without a hurl! :)
- Video Doog - Came through again with a brand new bump for the series. Awesome job!
- Marie - Thanks for running for the pancakes that we ended up not using. Grace staff...feel free to have frozen pancakes in the freezer!
It's a Gibson Explorer if you're lucky Sam will let you hold it :-)

Interesting way of playing the Crowder tune, I'll have to listen to that some time. I love doing Salvation Is Here, but it's been a few years. We did it as the closing song for our Christmas presentation one year, and it really brought the house down. It's about time to share that one with my new worship band. Have a great week, thanks for posting these.
