**** Sunday Setlist for St. Simons Community Church, Nov 16, 2008 ***
Today I co-led with Harriet Jones, another one of our worship leaders. We sat down together earlier last week and considered the service, elements, and picked some songs that would flow together and compliment our various styles. Here’s what we came up with:
Walk-In:
“Thank You, Lord” (Don Moen/Paul Baloche)
Comments: I wanted to introduce this as a “walk-in” song, and will use this song again next week as a fun, celebration song for Thanksgiving.
Open Set: (led by Harriet)
My Redeemer Lives (Hillsong)
Revive Us Lord (Alvin Slaughter)
Comments: Harriet led this set, and I played B3. The “Revive Us Lord” was just the Chorus, we sang it through 3x, getting faster each time.
Announcements: Larry Wade was back, making everyone laugh as usual.
Second Set:
Hallelujah (Your Love Is Amazing) Brian Doersen
Comment: new arrangement on his CD, starts slow, then has a seriously cool groove on it. It’s still not quite there yet in our rhythm section, but we fared OK. Tim, our acoustic guitarist was so into it during the 11:00 he forgot the song was ending, and just kept playing and playing – it was pretty funny. It started getting awkward when after a couple of times through the last bars of the ending, we’re all stopped and he’s still jamming back there. He finally figured it out, and rather than move on in awkwardness, I kinda joked about it and said “Yes, Lord – Your love makes us sing … and it REALLY makes us PLAY…” to which the congregation really chuckled, so it lighted up the weirdness.
Agnus Dei: Great flow here. Though we didn’t rehearse it this way, when we finished the song, I brought back the Chorus, just vocals and pads – it was sweet.
Sermon: today was a rare day, in that we basically took the entire sermon time to discuss our history, where we are, and where we’re doing, and specifically tied this into our building fund and capital campaign. It went really long (20+ minutes longer than normal), but our people seemed to hang in there. I hope and pray that hundreds of people will take their pledge cards home and seriously consider giving above and beyond what they are doing now. (myself included).
Communion:
How Beautiful (Twila Parise
O The Wonderful Cross (Tomlin/Redman version)
It was a great day – a LONG day, but great. There was good energy on the stage, and though we had a really long rehearsal this week, it paid off and we came together quite well.
That’s a wrap for us – your time to share!

Two questions: is it ok to post set lists here in the comments if you don’t have your own blog? Also, is there a better place to comment on “struggles” encountered during a set than here. I’ve had some problems with monitor levels being changed after our pre-worship practice Sunday morning and was thinking of a ‘diplomatic’ sign placed on the mixing console regarding this. Since I’m using a hybrid ( Carvin AE185 ) guitar it can be pretty quiet ( and stressful ) if the guitar level suddenly drops in the monitor.

Here’s our set for 11/16/08:
1. Love the Lord your God ( Brewster )
2. Everlasting God ( Chris Tomlin version)
3. Open the eyes of my heart
4. I stand amazed ( Bart Millard version of old hymn )
5. I delight in the Lord (Chris Falson © 1989 Maranatha! Music CCLI # 420627)
All went well except some changes in monitor levels during the set that the team wasn’t expecting. As usual with such things, the congregation worshipped and had no idea we were struggling a bit. Thank the Lord.
6. Lord I lift my hands to you ( slow worshipful song written by one of our singers )
Great worship set Fred. I am sure you had lots of fun.

Hi! This part was the only part I could figure out how to do (I’m still not quite sure was a “URL” is, or whether my link is an “innie” or an “outie”). But, comments: I like the atmosphere and presentation of this thing, as well as the fact that you are into Hammonds (my Dad played them for a living, and I still have a D-152 and six volumes of Bach in my garage). This week’s set. Sunday AM we had guests; the leader writes a lot, and taught us two songs. He did something neat – he came out before church started, introduced himself and taught the two songs, so when worship time came we could flow right in. PM, again the word was ‘joy, thanksgiving, and, yes, taking a spirit check). Opening – “In Him We Live” and running right through the greeting time, “I’ve Got that Joy”, both full country-style (this is NW Oregon, after all, I mean people sometimes stomp their feet here). Then, l’istesso tempo right into “The Lord Reigns”, with an 8th-note CCAGCCAG idee fixe in the bass, like a locomotive). gets you happy.
A brief usher’s prayer, and we continue to the main body of worship music – Ancient of Days (as Latin as possible), melding to ‘Everyday’ while my wife spoke us from ancientness to today. Musically we continued in the same tempo, just Aussie-izing the in-between beats. This song naturally leads into ‘Everlasting God’, and logically to ‘You Never Let Go’. We stopped here, as I sang as song I’d written in 2005 but have been waiting for the right week to sing it. The political year has made Psalm 73 almost a necessity to sing. My version starts out like a Hebrew song of thanksgiving, but quickly turns to self-examination, as the Psalmist considers his own rotten attitude towards the wicked; but it ends with a heart change and thanksgiving to God. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop on carpet. Without comment we continued worship with ‘Healer’ and ‘Breathe’, at which time I had a friend with folksinger in his blood sing ‘Lost and Found’, by Andy Park. Again, everyone was listening, actually listening intently. How could you conclude worship with anything but ‘My Tribute’? So that was Sunday Evening, a time of radical thinking and quiet joy.

Great Sunday worship … I felt unprepared and anxious, but God was prepared! Used an excellent arrangement of Holy, Holy, Holy by Don Chapman. Contemporary styling that all ages loved!
