websites

[km7100]

Do any of you have any good websites you use to help with your worship leading?

A few of the ones I use are:

1)songselect.com - some great tools including lyrics, chord charts (it will actually transpose the key for you), and lead sheets

2)hothorship.com - list of churches who post video of their worship services online. Some of the videos are really good, some aren't. Cincy Vineyard is usually pretty good. So is 722.

3)pwarchive.com and iwillworship.com - chord charts, although many of the ones on pwarchive no longer have lyrics with the chords

Quick question: Does anyone know of a site like song select where you don't have to have a CCLI #?

The reason I ask is, I used that site for the last 3 years at my old church. I'm in a young, smaller church plant now, and we don't have CCLI.

The best thing I have is all the chord charts I've made, which are pretty good, in my google documents. But that key change thing was just great and I think I got spoiled.

Anyway, just need a couple ideas. I'll be clicking away on the links you've all posted!

Has a lot hymns I've never heard of before. Also, has demos.

"Rockin' With The Cross"
www.1christian.net/guitar/.... small annual fee for membership, but worth it. users can transpose lead sheets to any preferred key on the spot.

Most non-official sites which are operating legally won't have charts for popular worship songs because it violates the publishing rights.
My site has worship songs written by my wife and I, and a couple of other writers which can be used with or without a CCLI liscence:
www.RecentRainfall.com

A couple of other sources for independant worship music:
www.FreeWorshipMusic.com
www.ShareSong.org

Paul Baloche offers free charts for a number of his songs:
http://www.leadworship.com/resources/songbook.html

and also, if you sign up for the email group for www.WorshipTogether.com, they send out several free songs charts frequently.

www.WorshipSource.com will be launching sometime in September and will offer independant and well-known songs.


Hope this helps.

I started HighestPraise.Com (http://www.highestpraise.com) years ago ... at the time, it was one of the only sites out there offering free downloads of praise and worship .mp3, leadsheets, lyrics, etc., of our original songs. At the time, I was actively writing and pursuing publishing deals with other writers and because HighestPraise.Com was such a popular site, many of those songs have become distributed all over the world.

I'm the first to confess that the site has fallen way down on the priority list, but that may be changing soon as I'm doing several things to get re-aligned back into full steam in my passion ... worship, writing, playing, teaching.

All that to say - many of the songs are older, but still great for corporate worship. Check them out at http://www.highestpraise.com.

this has EVERYTHING:
www.hotworship.com
i discovered it this past week....

[Klampert]

[twc_admin]

cecworship - here here .. which is one of the Top 5 most referring sites to TheWorshipCommunity.Com!

[WorshipCity]

www.delicatefade.com - it moved to a pay site but I find it worth it

www.bwacksforum.com - duh

www.worshiptogether.com - duh

www.logue.net - chords but more importantly an awesome transposing site. Copy and drop in your chord charts and click the key you want and presto chango you've got it!

Hello

I must admit I could not let this go. I have been put to the task of developing a website for Sermonspice.com called www.Worshipspice.com (original I know). It is being designed to be the best place for new worship music and new recordings of known worship music. If it is of any help to you please let me know.

hope it helps.

Mandy,
Yeah - hotworship.com is a huge list of links ... I'd seen it mentioned in a couple of other places, and they've added TheWorshipCommunity.Com on their links as well!

[Anointedforworship]

can I suggest my website http://www.anointedforworship.com?

It's got no chord charts, but got free guitar video lessons, i mean its gonna be useless for those who are already playing, but for the beginners, I think it will help them in some ways... I teach primarily how to use the guitar to play in a "1 instrument setting" - meaning the guitarist will have to tink of how to incorporate other instruments like drums, bass gtr, keys, horns, etc..

you might wanna check it out :)
