Behind the lyrics of “All Glory, Laud and Honor” is a story of imprisonment and betrayal. It was written by Theodolph of Orleans while imprisoned by a paranoid ruler. The injustice destroyed his life, but the dire circumstances brought forth a fuller appreciation of the promise of eternal life that awaited him.

This arrangement is created for a male worship leader (Bb or transpose to B) or female worship leader (transpose to A) with praise team vocals or SAB - the SATB has the typical 4 parts with the soprano singing melody. I think Bb is the perfect key for the wide-ranged melody of this hymn - not too high or too low.

I've added synth loops in A, Bb and B - click on the left, loops on the right.

It's interesting to me to hear how my arranging style has changed in the 11 years since I first arranged All Glory. This new 2014 version is more guitar-driven, syncopated and has loops for a more contemporary feel.

The modern worship lyrics trend for projection is to leave out most punctuation for a clean look. The original hymncharts lyrics text file contains punctuation. Our website hymndex.com was created to help churches build hymn lyric slides without punctuation.
Instruments mp3s are the arrangements played one time through with just piano and instrumental parts to give you an idea of the orchestration. In the early days of hymncharts before I made vocal recordings I had created these instruments mp3s as a quick demo. Since I now create both a POP and an ORC (orchestrated) mix I no longer make instrumental mp3s for newer arrangements.
MP3 Problems?
Several subscribers have had problems downloading MP3s. Here are the 2 most typical problems and solutions:

1. How do I download the MP3s? MP3s and (if available) multitrack WAV downloads are found under the "tracks" tab. You can download these MP3s (or any files) to your computer by RIGHT clicking the button, then a little box will pop up with options. Select something like "save as"or "save link as" to manually save the MP3s to your computer where you can then burn a CD, email it to your praise team or upload it to a worship planning website.

2. The MP3 won't play in iTunes (or other media player.) All HymnCharts MP3s are free from ALL copy protection and can be used any way you want. Some people are clicking the MP3 button dragging it to iTunes or another media player. This won't work (you're actually just dragging the image file of the button!) Download the MP3 using the instructions above, then you can access it through your media player.
