Isaiah 12

Friday, August 1st, 2008

1 In that day you will say:
“I will praise you, O LORD.
Although you were angry with me,
your anger has turned away
and you have comforted me.

2 Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust and not be afraid.
The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song;
he has become my salvation.”

3 With joy you will draw water
from the wells of salvation.

4 In that day you will say:
Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name;
make known among the nations what he has done,
and proclaim that his name is exalted.

5 Sing to the LORD, for he has done glorious things;
let this be known to all the world.

6 Shout aloud and sing for joy, people of Zion,
for great is the Holy One of Israel among you.”

Video: Healer (Planetshakers / Hillsong)

Monday, July 28th, 2008

We had a BBQ at my Dad’s church last night and a sing-song time afterwards (as is traditional). It was fairly relaxed so I played through a few songs that we sing back in North Carolina. Healer is pretty much taking the worship scene by storm at the moment.

Ireland: Leading Worship - 20 Jul 2008

Monday, July 21st, 2008

I lead worship yesterday at my old church in Ireland.  The lads really appreciated me getting them out of bed for an 8am practice.  I think Robert even said he never got up that early - ever - not even on a week day.  I was so glad I arranged it for that time after hearing that.  ;-)
I stuck pretty much to my revised setlist except that I dropped My Saviour Lives and Above All Powers.  We did Healer (chords) which was great.  Man that song is special.  I introduced it by telling a bit of the story behind it and it nearly had me in tears.

It was nice to be back and playing with the band.  It was nearly like I was never away.

Ireland: Revised LCF Set List - 20 Jul 2008

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

I have revised the set list a little for Sunday.  Here is what it is looking like now.

  • (B) My Saviour Lives
    This song was introduced recently, so it should be fairly fresh on people’s minds.
  • (B) King Of Majesty
    I’m not sure if this one has been done before or not, but it will be easy to pick up and sing along to.
  • (G) Your Grace Is Enough
    This is an old regular (Chris Tomlin’s arrangement).
  • (B) Nothing But The Blood
    I think this one will be new, but the lyrics are familiar due to the hymn and people will be singing along in no time.
  • (B) Jesus Paid It All
    This is an old hymn with a new bridge added.  My Dad knew this one from way back.  I’m hoping other folk will too.
  • (G) Above All Powers / (B) Healer *
    I’d love to try Healer to end tomorrow’s set, but I’m not sure I can do it justice yet.  We’ll have to see how practice goes tomorrow morning.

Right click on song titles and select “Save Link As…” or equivalent to save chords to your computer.  Play with Capo on fret 4 for songs in B.

Ireland: LCF Set List - 20 Jul 2008

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

I’m leading worship this weekend at my church in Ireland.  It’s been nearly a year since I last led there, so it’s going to be a bit weird for me.  These are the songs I have tentatively selected for Sunday.  I’m not sure doing so many new songs is a good idea, so the list may change.

  • My Savior Lives
  • King Of Majesty
  • Never Let Go
  • God With Us
  • Cannons (Phil WIckham)
  • Jesus Paid It All

Video: Jesus Paid It All

Friday, July 4th, 2008

I love this hymn, but struggled with grasping the harmony on the chorus.  I sat down at the keyboard last week and worked out the harmony and memorized it for band practice.  When I got to band practice, I sang something else entirely!  Anyway, I think I have it cracked now once and for all.

I used Sony Vegas to record the harmony track.

Wow.

NHC Set List - 22 Jun 2008

Sunday, June 22nd, 2008

  • King Of Majesty - Marty Sampson
  • Mighty To Save - Ben Fielding / Reuben Morgan
  • Jesus Paid It All - Alex Nifong / Elvina M. Hall

Today worship was led by Seth, who was over in North Carolina visiting Gary for the weekend.  Seth serves as Worship Pastor at Four Corners church in Texas.  He did a great job this morning.

Hugh rocked the house with the feature song today.  Not many people knew he had a rock star voice to go along with those mad guitar skills and image.  ;-)
