Contemporary hymns and new worship music
CONTEMPORARY HYMNS AND NEW WORSHIP MUSIC These are acoustic worship songwriting demos with chords sheets. IF YOU'RE A SINGER, BAND, OR WORSHIP LEADER/PASTOR, FEEL FREE TO USE these modern hymns and worship songs in live settings, and to reproduce lyric sheets for Power Point, overhead transparency, or whatever you use. THE MODERN HYMN MOVEMENT: The recent explosion of contemporary hymns and inroads made into churches by Indelible Grace, Stuart Townend, Keith and Kristyn Getty and other modern hymn writers has done wonders for reminding us of the relevance of old hymns and turning again to new hymns crafted in old literary patterns that expressed theological truths in ways that many modern song-constructs cannot follow. I work in this tradition, writing deeply theological worship songs that can be adapted for various musical genres, while presenting the gospel in the depth that hymns are famous for. Click the "Lyrics/story tab next to each song on my MP3 music page for chords, as well as a list of themes/liturgical settings for each song and CCLI #s. YOU CAN ALSO DOWNLOAD OVERHEAD TRANSFER SHEETS, chord sheets, and lyrics to some of these songs by looking up my name in the Artist List of these two sites: Just send me a note letting me know who/where you are -- I'd like to know! .

Story behind the song
This is a HYMN OF ASSURANCE in common meter. I was fooling around with a different chord progression than I've used before, and started playing it in various rhythms. I sort of found my way to this (I think) simple, classy late 19th-century gospel hymn arrangement. THEMES: Assurance, Blessing, Character, Christian life, Cleansing, Comfort, Ceremony: Funeral, Courage, Faith, God's Faithfulness, Sovereignty, Will, Heaven, Obediance, Protection, Providence, Trials, Trust, Truth
Lyrics
C E7 Am A7 How blessed we are through all the pain Dm C G G7 That drives us to our knees, C E7 Am A7 That shows the weakness of our strength, Dm D G Proves Your sufficiency. F G Through desparation, suffering C G F At last we see the truth: C E7 Am A7 We could not master our own fate -- F G C That power lives in You. C E7 Am A7 How blessed we are through all the pain Dm C G G7 That won't let us forget C E7 Am A7 This life is just a steppingstone; Dm D G You are not finished yet. F G You left to build a place for us; C G F Why would we want to stay C E7 Am A7 And let the worries of this world F G C Steal our hearts away? C E7 Am A7 How blessed we are through all the pain, Dm C G G7 The burden of our cross. C E7 Am A7 We take it up and journey on Dm D G Through Your own strength, in us. F G We sing and pray through suffering, C G F Then others understand C E7 Am A7 That stubborn peace in perilous times F G C Comes from Your nail-scarred hands. CCLI# 4878247
