Worship Music Thoughts - Praise & Worship P&W

This is a place for Christians to discuss what song Worship is. How do we do it? What works well? How do we balance many issues facing us? Tough questions will be asked. We can also share favorites (songs, bands, websites) and worst "favorites" (songs, bands, etc). I hope to learn and grow and get some great ideas.

Name:
Location: Eagle Grove, Iowa, United States

I was born in 1973 in Zaire, Africa. My parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents on my mom’s side were all missionaries with the Evangelical Free Church in Zaire. I graduated from boarding school in Zaire (Ubangi Academy) in 1991 and went to Moody Bible Institute. I spent my summers working at Hidden Acres, the Evangelical Free Church camp in Iowa and it was there I met my lovely and gracious wife, Lori (though we didn’t fall in love there). I received a B.A. in Youth Ministry from Moody and spent over 5 years in an Independent Baptist Church in rural Michigan. I left there at God’s call in 2002 to serve at Grace Evangelical Free Church in Eagle Grove, Iowa, as the Youth Pastor. I have an incredible son, Benjamin, and a beautiful daughter, Elise. My wife is a huge part of our ministry with the youth. I am currently pursuing (slowly) a Master of Arts and Religion from Reformed Theological Seminary through their virtual campus (distance education). My passions are for the glory of God, my family, guitar, volleyball, sports in general, and students. Though the future is unclear, I believe God has called me to “full-time” ministry.

New (to me) Worship Songs I'm Enjoying

Just a few of my favorite newer worship songs at our church or redone stuff. (these aren't necessarily new songs, just newer to our church)
Glory to God by Fee
Revelation Song by Kari Jobe
Your Name by Paul Baloche and Glenn Packiam
From The Inside Out by Joel Houston
I Stand Amazed In The Presence - Tomlin's version


RUF Hymnal Stuff I'm loving.

All Hail The Power Of Jesus Name
Praise To The Lord The Almighty
I Boast No More (check out Caedmon's Call's version too)
- and so many more songs are simply redone - mostly less chords - more suitable for guitar.

What new or old songs are you enjoying?
