Guitar Worship Class for me, after 3 weeks, is a very impacting learning experience. Learning the different basic chords, scales and strings can be a lot of fun and also a lot of practice at home! We even learned a way to remember the names of the six strings on the guitar:
"Eddie Ate Dynamite, Good Bye Eddie." Which is a poem for the six strings: E, A, D, G, B and E. Our teacher, Nicole Hopman, has also been teaching us wonderful worship songs to play on the guitar and sing. We have been learning these songs:
- Revelation Song, Micah 6:8
- Open the Eyes of My Heart Lord
- Amaizing Love
- I Will Follow
- Here I Am To Worship
- Healing Is In Your Hands
- And lots more to come!
In the Bible it says in Psalm 33:2-3,
"Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy." Also, in Ephesians 5:19 it says,
"Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the LORD." After reading these two scriptures, we can realize that God loves when we worship him. While using our guitars, or using our God-given voices to sing to him, we are honoring and pleasing God in these great ways.
