Song Agenda for May 24th Chapel

Hi Everyone,
Again, great practice on Thursday - you all sounded fantastic!
Remember, Mr. Schneider is speaking first on 'Spiritual Warfare' in  chapel.  After he's done, we're up and the song order will be something like this:

Shout Unto God   Key of D (but we actually never play that chord - ironic, huh?)
https://youtu.be/IQcgtQ8-Ws4
'The enemy has been defeated...'   (repeat around 8 times, whole band building every time)

  • A.Guitar, bass, and keys (pad) start
  • Drums join, first with that beat we were talking about (snare 1/2 time with toms in between)
  • Getting bigger, guitars get more busy and louder
  • drums full on, tambourine going
  • I'll signal for when we go into....
'Shout unto God with a voice....'   (again repeat about 8 times, but staring with JUST PERCUSSION)
  • First 2 times - JUST DRUMS, TAMBOURINE, and singers FULL ON (you're almost shouting)
  • Next two times - Band joins, but does a single large SHOT on every chord
  • Next four times - everyone FULL ON
  • End on G chord - BIG BIG BIG ending
After the ending, E. Guitar can start right into....

Let God Arise  Key of E
  • Intro - like we practiced
  • Verse 1 - Just drums, bass, and singers - no keys or guitars until the C#m on 'See'
  • Pre-chorus
  • Chorus - full on - no stopping this time
  • Instrumental - like intro
  • Verse 2 - like we practiced
  • Pre-chorus - singers harmonizing
  • Chorus - 2 times - full on all band and singers
  • Instrumental to bridge (using pre-chorus chords)  E.guitar can play solid, whole note chords until singers start singing
  • Bridge (really like pre-chorus, just lots of times, starting quiet and building)
  • Chorus - Band holds chords on 'Arise' each time, then back in full on 'Reigns'
  • Chorus
  • Instrumental to end
This is Amazing Grace   Key of D  We might cut this some for time's sake
  • Intro - band starts big - everyone in, including tambourine.  Keys with solo line
  • Verses 1 & 2 - drums, bass, organ, & singers, but everyone build 'the King of Glory...' into the chorus.  Singers need to clap
  • Chorus - with tambourine!
  • Verses 3 & 4 - full band - instruments with shots. Big build into chorus
  • Chorus - with tambourine!

Overwhelmed    Key of G
  • Intro - A. guitar, keys, bass, and drums
