This is the first time that I have used Band in a Box to demo one of my original songs. It is a Praise/Worship song called “ Rejoice!”. This demo is meant to show how the song might sound with a guitar oriented church praise team. "Rejoice!" on soundcloud RealTracks used: 1268: Bass ,Electric,PopUplift Ev16 120 692:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming AcRockBright Ev 120 405:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev120 1607:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Pop16thsGritty Ev16 110 543:Guitar,Electric, Rhythm Dreamy, Ev 120 RealDrums=RockRootsEv8 RealDrums=PraiseWorshipPowerPush The organ is NI B4 Express Synth sounds, cymbal roll, and handclaps are Yamaha MO8. I played live tambourine and perform all vocals. I imported the BB files into Cubase LE where I used the mute and volume automation to mix the various BB parts. LYRICS: VERSE 1: The warm golden sunrise Painting its light across the sky The sweet smell of springtime Colors so bright they come alive CHORUS: All of creation Every nation shouts out loud This is the day that the Lord has made Let us rejoice Lift up your voice Let us rejoice This is the day that the Lord has made Let us rejoice Lift up your voice Let us rejoice and be glad Rejoice and be glad Rejoice and be glad in it. VERSE 2: Today's a new dawning Bursting with life and hope so strong This glorious morning After the night, a brand new song CHORUS BRIDGE: Today is the only day That will ever be today So whatever comes my way I will praise!! VERSE 3: Maybe tomorrow Will bring pain and heartache to my soul In Joys or in sorrows I know that my God is in control CHORUS "Rejoice!" on soundcloud

This is the first time that I have used Band in a Box to demo one of my original songs. Congrats on taking the plunge.  Wonderful uplifting praise song! The RT's you chose sound great in your demo. I love it.

I like this a lot! Its a perfect fit for the genre... in fact, it really brought Paul Baloche's sound to mind while listening!
I can easily imagine this fitting in at any church service... except they couldn't go straight to the main message afterwards because people would still be tapping their feet!
And you have a great singing voice... are you the music leader at your church?
VERY nice song, and awesome first submission! Welcome to the forum!

Thanks all for taking the time to listen!
In August I will be rehearsing this song at a couple of churches in my area ( I posted the demo that they heard) so maybe I'll be able to post a live version for comparison.
...and additional thanks to those who took time to comment!
