Sunday Setlist August 2

Here's the Sunday setlist report from Gospel Light Community Church in Bridgeport, Ct, on a warm and rainy Sunday morning.

Opening:

Your Grace is Enough (Maher)(G)

Main Set:

All Because of Jesus (Fee)(C)

Freedom (James)(B)

History Maker (Smith)(G)

Healer (Guglielmucci)(B)

Higher (Fieldes)(C)

Offering:

Ancient of Days (Sadler/Harville)(G)

With the exception of the opening song and the offering song, nothing on this list has been played during the main part of the service for at least seven months. So let's boogie:

"All Because of Jesus" is a song we introduced as an offering song last week. It was very popular, and made it into the main set this week. Great song, great vibe, lot of fun to play. A keeper.

"Freedom" is a song by Eddie James and The Ultimate Call. It's really high-energy and fun. Today was the first time we've ever done it, and judging by the clapping, shouting and dancing, it won't be the last. If you've never heard this tune, watch the video below - you'll wanna play it.

The three "H's" made it back into our available list in July. "History Maker" by Delirious? is one of my favorite worship songs, and I was glad to be able to play it. "Healer" really ministered to the house today. When we play it, Justin does most of the melody on the keys; I just do that haunting, repetitive B note through the verses, then come in with some overdrive in the chorus.



It turned out that the multi-echo I had set up for "All Because of Jesus" worked well for "Healer" and "Higher." In fact, it worked really well for the intro to "Higher." (Not that Nigel Hendroff is in danger of losing his job or anything.)

And of course, "Ancient of Days" is one of those great, timeless songs that everyone in our church loves.

So how was your service? Once you're done watching the Eddie James video below, jump on over to Fred McKinnon's blog to see some more setlists.
