Info:
Words: Tim Light,

Music: Tim Light,
Don Chapman
Key: D major
Time Sig: 4/4
Tempo: 94 | mid tempo
CCLI #: #5688773
Verse: Psalm 46:7
Ideas:
This Glorious Day is not the version by Casting Crowns, but a song I co-wrote with UK worship leader Tim Light a few years ago. It's also a part of the Glorious Day Easter Sunrise Service Guide.

Glorious Day works best as a praise team special or a male/female worship leader duet. Notice in the demo how it starts with a female, goes to male, then a duet, then a praise team comes in on the 2nd verse.

Try using Glorious Day in your Easter service in these spots:

  • as an opening call to worship, then continue with welcome/announcements and your Easter praise set.
  • at the end of your Easter praise set, during the offertory right before the message.
  • to close your Easter service.
Suggested transposition:
This arrangement was originally created in D major but will also work a step lower in C major if it's too high for your vocalists.

Video:
Here's a video of a praise team singing Glorious Day several years ago for Easter at a megachurch where I worked.

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.
