Hey, Thanks for the feedback - I really appreciate your time! I had thought about doing the "we" thing but I think that it needs to be consistent throughout the whole song. In other words, I can't say "my" in the verse and "we" in the chorus. I love the whole congregational concept but I felt like if I had to pick one type of ownership for the whole song, it should be personal instead of plural. 'Hope I said that in a way that makes sense! I should have thought of the key thing! We all tune down a half-step, so we're just playing the song in "G". We've had some serios craziness going on close to our church with an "evangelist" named Todd Bentley. A lot of people have been getting caught up in a false idea of what it means to be "Filled with the Spirit". My pastor delivered an incredible message, based on a Biblical look at what it means to be "Filled with the Spirit". 2 verses which blew me away were: "the words I speak unto you are spirit" (JESUS speaking!) John 6:63 "the spirit, which is the word of God" Eph. 6:17 I love the fact/thought that God's Spirit is present in His Word and that being filled with the Word is, Biblically speaking, the same thing as being filled with the Spirit. So if I am storing His Word in my heart and abiding in His Word, then His presence is "here"! That blows my mind... Thanks agian for the kind words and encouragement!

Chris & Iain - I totally didn't realize that I didn't have the consistent me/we thing going on! I definitely need to tweak it so tat it's consistent - I 'll try and change it so that it's got the "we" focus. Thanks for pointing that out! That's why feedback is so important... Thanks Mackam - when we do the song as a full band arrangement, the verses and first 2 choruses have a very open 8th-based groove on the toms. I thought about grooving the verse sooner but specifically decided not to because I think it's the predictable thing to do. The feel of the song stays very open without ever really "breaking" into a driving beat until the instrumental verse after the second chorus. Waiting that long actually created a really cool "tension" so that when we "Break" into the big instrumental, it just explodes! But thanks for the point - 99 out of 100 times, I'd do exactly what you mentioned. Here are the chords if anybody wants them. We play the song tuned down a half-step, in the key go "G". The numbers in brackets represent the number of beats each chord is played for: INTRO: G2 (8) – G/B (4) – Em7 (4) (x2) VERSE 1: G (8) There is no fear In Your presence G/B (4) And You are here Em7 (4) Your Word is Spirit C2 (8) You intercede Before the Father D (8) And know our need Before we speak CHORUS: G (4) You are Em7 (4) D (4) The Lord of the miracle C2 (4) G2 (4) The One who restores and heals Em7 (4) D (4) The God over every need C2 (8) I believe INTRO VERSE 2: With hearts of faith We will trust You Walk on the waves Our eyes are on You We cling to grace When all is falling (And) we'll stand amazed As You reveal... CHORUS (play the C-chord @ the end for 1-bar instead of 2-bars) INSTRUMENTAL VERSE BRIDGE: (play G/B (4) – D (8) the last time) Em7 (4) (You’re) my hope C2 (4) My strength G2 (8) My peace And my confidence (x4) CHORUS (play the C-chord @ the end for 1-bar instead of 2-bars) CHORUS (w/3 additional tags riding the C-chord; end on the 1-count of the last “believe”) Jeff T. blogsology.wordpress.com
