New Song For Easter

[nrand]

I am a full time minister in the Uniting Church in Australia and I often write song material to add to my sermons. This one has ben kicking around in one form or another since 2003, and I just finished it last week following the death of my mother's sister.
Due to my low voice I often tune down two semitones to enable me to use cowboy chords - most people with normal voices will find this sounds better in a higher key - the chorus sections will also benefit from some high harmonies.

If you wish to use this in worship please log on to CCLI and get the words from them. Feedback will be appreciated, as I am planning to up load 15-20 of my better songs over the next few weeks. Subscriptions are welcome [free]

It would be great to see how others approach the use of this song.

Peace in Christ
Nicholas Randall [Rev]

If your search Google for 'Hold Your face Up to The Light' you will find the song.

In case you prefer electric guitar, here it is again with my G&L and in G - a bit too high for my voice but the key will suit most singers. The guitar is straight into my Fender Super Twin [valve amp] with no effects. The chords I use are G D C Em and Bm. I hope this helps.
