Celebrate Songs: Piano Chords

Image via Wikipedia

For me, the month of June has been filled with  celebration days from weddings, birthdays, graduations and Father's Day. How about you? Many songs come to mind when I think of the word celebrate, from praise music to pop. Here's a few.
I WILL CELEBRATE (1982 Maranatha Music) by LINDA DUVALL     Gm Dm I will celebrate, sing unto the Lord A7 Dm I will sing to Him a new song Gm I will celebrate, sing unto the Lord A7 Dm I will sing to Him a new song Gm C F Bb A7 Dm I will praise Him, I will sing to Him a new song Gm C F Bb A7 Dm I will praise Him, I will sing to Him a new song Gm Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Em7 A7 Dm Hallelu, hallelujah Gm Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah Em7 A7 Dm Hallelu, hallelujah! Now, here's how I play this song. You can almost  hear the phrasing of the song and where the notes will go. Keep listening to the song and training  your ear for the changes. I'm playing:   CG/Cm I Will Celebrate   FC/Fm Sing Unto The Lord   AbEb/Cm I Will   GF/BbM7 Sing To Him a   CG/Cm New Song     Musician Training Center

“No Greater Love” song – Don Moen

Lyrics:-

You loved me,
When I was so unlovely,
You sought me
When I was lost;

You showed me
How much You really loved me,
When You bought me
At the highest cost

There’s no greater love than this,
There’s no greater love than this,
That a man would give his life for a friend;
There’s no higher sacrifice
Than a man would give his life,
You have paid
A precious price for me

You chose me,
When I was so unworthy
You cleansed me
With Your own blood;
You clothed me
With righteousness and mercy,
And You crowned me
With Your steadfast love

There’s no greater love than this,
There’s no greater love than this,
That a man would give his life for a friend;
There’s no higher sacrifice
Than a man would give his life,
You have paid
A precious price for me   (2)

You have paid
A precious price for me…

No Weapon- Fred Hammond

I love the song No Weapon by Fred Hammond. I can listen to it over and over... same for you? Fred Hammond's No Weapon Formed Against Thee Shall Prosper is based on the scripture Isaiah 54:17. The song is in the Key of Ab. I wanted to share the piano chords with you along with this great piano tutorial by hns music on YouTube. You will learn so much from this great teaching video and you probably will find yourself wanting to emulate his playing style, very smooth and a pleasure to hear.
Listen for the tritones, so professional!

* No Weapon



* No Weapon Lyrics and MP3

(Chorus)
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work
No weapon formed against me shall prosper, it won’t work


God will do what He say He would do
He will stand by His word
And He will come through
God will do what He say He would do
He will stand by His word
And He will come through

God will do what He said He would do
He’s not a man that He should lie
He will come through
God will do what He said He would do
He will stand by His word
He will come through

(Bridge)
Oh I won’t be afraid of the arrows by day
From the hand of the enemy
I can stand my ground with the Lord on my side
For the snares they have set will not succeed

(Repeat Chorus)

Don’t be afraid
Of the arrows or the snares
Set by your enemies
If you believe it say, ooo, Ooo

There just ain’t one,
There just ain’t one weapon, no
There just ain’t one
There just ain’t one weapon, no
