Some of you say he's rushing it... and he is... but in his defense, some songleaders have to do that to keep the congregation from slowing them down. I'm speaking from experience here. Sometimes you gotta stay one step a head of them so they don't drag it down.
This is Burlington, Iowa. Our congregation is about 80 total. Eric was 16 years old at that time and this was one of the first times he led singing and was on a Sunday night. He became the Sunday night song leader to help prepare him for future service. Eric is now a freshman at Oklahoma Christian University. I am his dad and an Elder at this Church.
And the rest of yall need to chill out God Don't require Perfect singing if he did there wouldn't be people with horrible voices.... Obviously he needs work you encourage not tear down tell the man to look at Jeff Murrah or something Paul Williams Great examples of that song.. Don't say things like Don't just stand there
@TAndrews2100 Paul Williams is an excellent example of a songleader! I hate to admit to watching a church of christ video for the sake of entertainment but he is very interesting to watch while he's worship leading. I too am a songleader. From one songleader to another, I appreciate the way you handled everyone elses criticism towards this young man.
You did Well brother.. Needs a little bit of work Your tempo needs to be more consistent, direct your audience with your arm like Wellch said that lets everyone know your tempo.. Keep striving listen to some other brothers on Youtube it helps I'm 17 and Have song service Tomorrow night
@dlewis94 what a mean spirited thing to say! i'd hate to be the burlington church song leader and read this! if you want to train young men to lead, the least you could do is be a little encouraging!
You mean to tell me that they sing this song in the Church of Christ?!? No Way. You must be kidding. I guess EVERYBODY who has ever stepped in the door of one knew that already... Too bad we don't have a governing body so we can make it our official anthem...
You show me in the Bible where we see the example of anything else being done.....The meaning of Christians is :trying to be like Christ.....That means that we do anything like they did back in the times of the New Testament.....
This is one of my favorites! Great job!

i love this song, but seriously as a COC song leader you really need to slow down. No need to rush thru it.
