Ideas:
Face to Face is one of my first HymnCharts arrangements – I created it in 2002. As I’m going back to record these hymns, it’s interesting to note how songs and arrangements have changed over the past twelve years.

It seemed like almost every arrangement in 2002 had a key change at the end. When was the last time you modulated on the final verse these days? I can’t remember 🙂

So I now have two versions of Face to Face: one with a key change and this one without.

The key change version is recorded in what I’d call a more “classic” worship style – with oboe and rich three-part vocals.

The non-key change version updates the sound to a slightly more contemporary style with a touch of electric guitar and a more modern lead vocal. HymnCharts arrangements are flexible enough that you can tailor them to your worship style.

LISTEN Heaven Medley Idea

End your praise set with a Heaven medley using Face to Face and Sweet By and By. The songs work thematically, by key (lower Face to Face or raise Sweet By and By a step using my transposed chord charts and/or Finale software, sold separately) and by the linking words:

Face to face in all His glory, I shall see Him by and by.
- and -
In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore.

Start the intro to Sweet By and By right on measure 40 of Face to Face (don't play the outtro.)

   HYMNDEX Links
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.
