Episode 5: What A Beautiful Name

In this episode of the Ordinary Worship Leader podcast I will be talking about the Hillsong tune What a Beautiful Name which is currently number 5 on the CCLI top 100 chart. And for once I think you will be pleasantly surprised by my assessment of this song and how accessible it will be for your church and congregation. If you haven't heard if before I encourage you to follow the link below, listen to it, and then come back to this episode. Also, if you have a question or a comment you can find me on twitter @leader_worship or by following the link below, review the podcast and leave a comment, or go to ordinaryworshipleader.com, go to the contact page and send me a message.

Very informative

I loved how he explained each part of the song and how you may or may not need to change the key or temp depending on your worship team. Also, I love how he explained the emotional response it can bring when sung at church.
