Having a wider variety/discovering more songs
I just realized, most of the new songs Ive been introducing within the past say..6 months i think have been from Hillsong. Don't get me wrong, they're great, great songs, but I want to open up my choices. What sources do you guys use when finding new worship songs? Can you guys give me some artists and stuff so i can explore new horizons?

Could you post your library... or just browse the threads on worship sets for songs you don't yet have.

"It is Well"... was that Jars of Clay, or traditional?

Try How Great Thou Art, Crown Him With Many Crowns, The Solid Rock, Go Tell it on the Mountain, The Wonderful Cross.

www.igracemusic.com has lead sheets, and I think a few sound clips of some hymns that they've written new tunes for. They might be a little more accessible for a modern band than the 4 part harmony in a hymnal.

www.cyberhymnal.org has lyrics and melodies for a lot of songs

We've used some songs from the Taize community-http://www.taize.fr/en. I think you'll find them a little different than Hillsongs.

I heartily concur about hymns. Also, Sovereign Grace has good songs. But yes, hymns are amazing.
