How Great Music Directors Guide Worship Bands

Our church has one of the best

music directors I’ve heard anywhere.

His name is Jeff Lewis.

You cannot steal him.

But I thought you might want

to hear what it sounds like

to have a world-class music director

leading your band through service.

That’s what this video is.

You’re going to get to hear

Jeff MD, our whole set.

This is part of our brand new

Music Director Masterclass

that we just launched in the academy.

If you’re interested in adding a music

director position to your team, I’m going

to tell you about a huge discount that

you can get at the end of this video.

But in the meantime, check out Jeff.

Pay attention to what he’s saying,

when he’s saying it, how he’s saying it.

Then from a worship leader perspective,

you can also listen to me, how I’m

using vocal cues, microexhortations,

and word gaps to encourage

more participation from my church.

So watch this video, and then I’ll

tell you about the new course at the end.

Jesus name, Amen.

Sing this together, Christ is my…

And Christ is my firm foundation.

You could keep that came.

The rock on which I stand when

everything around me is shaking.

I’ve never been more glad

that I put my faith in Jesus

because he’s never let me out.

He’s faithful through generations.

So why would he fail now?

He won’t.

He won’t.

He won’t.

He won’t.

I still got.

Great.

It’s two, three, four.

And I still got joy in chaos.

I got peace that mine.

That makes no sense.

So I won’t be going under.

I’m not here by my own strength.

I build my life on Jesus.

He’s never let me down.

He’s faithful in every season.

So I’m leaving.

So I’m leaving.

To break you.

And when it came you,

my house was built on you.

I’ll stay with you.

I’m going to make you through sweet again.

When it came you,

when my house was built on you.

You won’t fail.

You won’t.

No, you won’t fail.

You’re the solid on which we see.

My hope.

My hope is built on nothing you Jesus,

love and righteousness.

I dare not trust the sweetest friend.

But we trust in Jesus’ name.

Lift it up together.

Christ alone.

And say, Christ, our God.

We make in the second.

Three, four.

He’s in love for love.

When darkness.

When darkness seems to hide in space,

I rest on his unchanging grace.

In every high and small he gave,

my anchor holds it.

Take.

Bigger for Line.

Three, four.

Instrumental.

Break down.

Make this your prayer.

When he shall come with trumpet sound.

Oh may I have him be found,

dressed in his rite, just this alone.

One.

And fall this than before.

You’re the Lord of All.

The Lord of Everything.

We love you all.

So bless the Lord, oh my soul, oh my soul.

Worship his Holy name.

Sing like ever before, oh my soul,

how I’ll show your Lord be.

One more time, please, with your heart.

And bless the Lord of my soul.

Oh my soul, oh my soul.

Worship this holy day.

Sing again.

Sing like every fall.

Oh my soul, I worship your holy name.

I worship.

Yes, I will worship your holy name.

I will worship your holy name.

What?

Yes, Lord, we worship you.

We love you guys for singing with us.

It’s definitely a group thing.

We definitely want your participation,

and you guys are awesome

with that, so thank you.

Why don’t we take a moment,

get out of our rows, and try

to meet one or two new people

that you’ve never said hi to before.

All the injured must do it also.

Go ahead.

Three, four, five, yeah.

Christ alone.

Three.

One more time.

Retard it right here.

End of five.

All right.
