Total Praise: Songs and Other Worship Resources for Every Generation

Everything I want I'm sooooooo ready to worship

So many tunes we sing in church I thought never even had sheet music written-- Those spontaneous shouts and prayer meeting tunes. Truly inspirational improvisational utterances in song. Nice. However, other well know historic gospel, spiritual, praise tunes do not include a verse nor indisputably well-known verse, sheet music lyrics. Sort of a let down in that regard, excluding the verse may lead to a loss of historic lyrics and melodies. Disappointed. I am nevertheless happy to get music for such tunes as "He's A Wonder In My Soul," so now I can teach the tune to the new church I pastor. It is a related Baptist denomination, yet so many songs I consider traditional, this congregation has never heard. Providing obscure sheet music and lyrics for these old favorites, Total Praise is a historical marker and a treasure trove. Bless them. Second edition would benefit from compiling the verses and printing the key in the index for those scanning quickly for key signatures. Oh yes I ordered two for me and the pianist because these songs are usually sung from memory improvisationally. But I turned around after receiving it and ordered two more so the organist and guitarist each has a copy. All this and it is not our denominational hymnal.

This book is a treasure to behold. Song sung in the pentecostal church in times past that never had any written music to it now does! I felt like a kid in a candy store thumbing thru this book. What a blessing!!! It came very timely too!

This aint your Mamas hymn book.This book has songs from Richard Smallwood, Kurt Carr, Twinkie Clark, and even Thomas Whitfieldas well as all the old familiar songsworship and praise is represented as well with songs likeI love you lord today, Anointing, How GReat is Our Godplus there are many songs that have embellishment and accompaniment parts and fill ins as well as some turn aroundsto help pianists who are not familiar with how to play Gospel

If you are a Church goer or just someone who love to sing you need this book, it has the old and the new, the words are so you can read them and if you play you know what key to be in. this should be the gift you give to that person who love to sing.

Physical makeup of book is excellent. I got it for myself because I prepare the Power Point (for the lyrics) and the book has proven to be an excellent source for musicians and assembly.

I love the collection of songs. I play by music and like the ease of the arrangements. I have own this product over a month. I use it in my worship service at church.

Love this hymn book
