I decided to write a liturgical/worship piece..but didn't have an idea for the lyric. One day, I came across words that, while reading, realize fit EXACTLY into my piece's melody line. So it's a collaboration. But the lyricist is Isaac Watts, who wrote the words in the early 1700's. They have been used for other hymns, but I like mine! It is so cool to have 'worked' with a master!

[Link no longer valid]

Rejoice, you righteous, in the Lord,
This work belongs to you;
Sing of his name, his ways, his word,
How holy, just, and true!

His mercy and his righteousness
Let heav'n and earth proclaim;
His works of nature and of grace
Reveal his wondrous name.

Really nice work Tano smile Right off the bat, this has to be one of the music unique approaches to a worship song I've ever heard. Really nice backing tracks, and some really catchy harmonies to pull the whole thing along. Your vocal delivery is top notch here too.

Great job on this one - thanks for sharing!


Cheers,
Deryk

Interesting. Unique.

The rhythm of the organ combined with the drums give it a "different drive". Makes it kind of "catchy"...

The melody fits the theme and its interesting to hear drums on a hymn.
An original piece - I enjoyed listening.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hello, Tom

It is a very easy-to-remember melody.
But the accompaniment is very unique as your usual works.
I agree with floyd.

Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Loved that catchy, quirky 3/4 rendition! As has been mentioned several times, the unusual drum-organ combo is a real nice fit. Very nice work! Wishing you the very best.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
