As per a few requests, I will be posting the chord charts for our Messianic Psalms songs, "The Gospel According to the Psalms." The audio can be found on our Facebook 'fan' page. This particular song has audio posted twice: once as a single practice session, and then included in the 3 part live recording of our Hudson, MI concert. We will be releasing a recording of these songs early next year (2010), Lord willing.
[Verse 1]
. ---C#dim---------------E9
When anxious thoughts disturb my sleep
. --C#dim --------------E9-------A9
and grief would turn my faith to fear
. E -------------C#dim
I look to you my living priest
. --E2 -----A2 ---------------B2
and rest in hope, for you are near
[Chorus]
. E ---------------C#dim
O Love Divine! You stooped to share
. -E -----------------A9
My sharpest pains, my bitterest tear,
. E --------------C#dim
I bring to You my earthly care,
. --f# ----A9 ----------E
and all is well, all is well
[Verse 2]
. ---C#dim ------------E9
When threatened by the darkest day,
. --C#dim ------------E9 -----A9
the thought of You dispels my fear.
. -----E ------------C#dim
Though all the world assaults my way
. ----E2 ----A2 ----------------B2
still all is well, when You are near
[Verse 3]
. ---C#dim ------------E
When sleep has come to take my breath
. -C#dim --------E9 --------A9
My waiting heart expects to hear
. -------E
Arise my child!
. -------g# ---------------A9
Arise my child I conquered death
. ---------E
and all is well,
. -----A2 ------------B2
all is well, for I am near

Music
...is like a language, with the volume turned up on the emotion, and when this is accompanied by lyrics, the result can be both powerful and memorable. Because of this, music must be used carefully and with particular attention to what is communicated to the audience (both lyrically and emotionally).When these elements are brought together, you have a Sermon in Song!
