Worship Leadership Tips
This song is effective just before a sermon or during response times, as it helps prepare hearts to receive God's word. Keep the instrumentation simple and intimate to foster a personal prayer atmosphere.
Arrangement Tips
You might encourage the congregation to close their eyes or lift hands in an open posture. If your team has both male and female vocalists, consider trading lines or harmonizing on the bridge.
