That song is now ON THE LIST... great suggestion... thanks.... I have an excel spreadsheet with fast songs & slow songs taht we have actually practiced in the last 2 weeks and verified the right key and I have an unverified fast song & unverified slow song worksheet as well.
I am a bit of an organization nut... at least as paperwork goes... my office wouldn't bear that trait out.

Just a thought.

Yes sir... I certainly have and we are working that direction. I have only had the group for about 2 weeks now and we are getting to the point pretty soon where we will be doing just that.
If our 2 more seasoned ladies can't play them then we bring in my daughter (and they have both seen her grow up (she is 14) and they are excited to see their "little girl" doing these songs so the Lord has blessed us with a situation where there is no musician envy)
She did "Trading My Sorrows" last night and did a great job.
I have not looked at the chord structure of "I am a friend of God" yet but I do have the chord charts here. I will look over that one as a possibility for some of the first "newer" songs that we integrate into our repertoire.
Thanks so much for the post... 2 excellent suggestions that will, absolutely, be put into practice.
