I Will Worship
by Ron Kenoly
Theology & Meaning
I Will Worship is a declaration of committed, ongoing worship — the 'I will' indicating not emotion but will. Drawing on Psalm 34:1's 'I will bless the Lord at all times' and the Hebrews 13:15 call to continually offer up a sacrifice of praise, the song declares that worship is not dependent on circumstances or feelings but is a choice of the will. This is the theology of sacrificial praise — worship that costs something because it is not contingent on feeling good.
Worship Leadership Tips
Ron Kenoly's worship leadership style is joyfully committed and inviting. This simple declaration works as an opening worship statement or in any service that wants to model worship as a deliberate choice. The repetitive, accessible structure makes it ideal for all-age gatherings and for corporate declaration.
Arrangement Tips
Upbeat praise feel with keys, rhythm, and full vocals. Kenoly's style is joyful and participatory — the arrangement should invite the congregation in rather than showcase the musicians. Keep the melody prominent and audible. The simplicity of the declaration is its greatest strength.
