Sing a new song to the Lord

Mellow devotion to God. I always get a feeling of calm when I listen to your recordings. Very nice.

I have a question about the chord you play at "for" in "for He has worked wonders". I am hearing some dissonance on that word. Since you are singing the note Ab, it seems that the chord C# would work well for this phrase, i.e. C# - Eb - Bb. What chords do you play in this arrangement? I am hearing Eb - F - Bb.

If you are using a capo at fret 1, then C - D - A would work fine for that phrase.  That high Ab note is a nice ascent that could be strengthed by the right chord.

Sing a new song to the Lord

I know what you mean about the dissonance, Richard. I really like it, however. It reminds me of the sort of happy collision one might hear from time to time in a Tallis motet or something like that. It's a remarkable, pleasant surprise!  That said, the alternative chords you suggest woudl also sound great. Hats off to the composers and performers for sparking our imaginations!
