This week, we’re continuing our series on songwriting and if you’re someone who writes or wants to write worship music, this is especially for you. I love writing for the Church, but I love the craft of writing period. So today we’re talking about the prayer and process involved in writing worship songs that feel like a safe house.
When we write without a foundation, without structure needed to support what we’re saying, we leak out all of what we think, without really ever having an understanding of the format of what it is we’re thinking … We create a faulty building.
Remember, you’re writing songs that move your people from the place that they are when they came into the building further to the lap of the Lord. So I’d like to spend some time today speaking frankly about foundation, finding lyrics, themes, and communicating what’s on God’s heart with artistic and structural integrity.
