I took time to put this together because of the wonderful response I got for Beginning Guitar: Folk Songs. I would appreciate any comments on your experience with these materials. Whether you want to institute worship in your home, teach your kids to play guitar, or spice up a Sunday school class with music, this book can help. As time allows, I plan to record the songs so beginners can learn by playing along and can hear the tunes if they don't know them. This list includes 90 worship songs that can be played by beginning guitarists, even young children. To my delight, many kids who started out with this approach went on to become outstanding guitarists, much better than me! My goal was to ensure kids experienced early success, whether or not they followed through to become proficient guitarists. I started with one-finger chords, then added a few more simple chords, one at a time. Years ago, I wrote Beginning Guitar: Folk Songs to teach my elementary students how to play guitar well enough to accompany themselves while singing. Worship involves adoration or respect for the God we deem to be worthy of all we are and have. Viewed from this perspective, worship through song has little to do with the technical proficiency of a musician and everything to do with the heart attitude of the worshiper. God doesn't hear notes so much as He hears hearts! (1 Samuel 16:7) "Worthy" means "deserving effort, attention or respect." The word "worship" comes from the same root as "worth" and "worthy." One definition of "worth" is the level at which someone or something deserves to be valued or rated. Related resource: Beginning Guitar Folk Songs This takes a while to download on my computer.
