I'm going to be the new song leader at my church. We lost our song leader and his family a few services back and our pastor was praying that the Lord would send us a new person to do this so he just has to concentrate on his sermons and not leading songs also. The other night I was up late studying and putting together a Wednesday night bible study message for the church and the Lord started pressing down on my heart to stand up and volunteer for the position. Singinsts g the hymns and lifting my voice up to glorify the Lord is one of my favorite parts of the church service. So I asked and prayed and have been given the go ahead to fill the empty spot. Please pray for me as I embark on this new ministry of the Lord. Less of me and More of Him! Im just a willing vessel.

I usually say: maayong buntag sa Tanan! Andam naba ta nga daygon ang atong buhi nga Diyos?Amen!! Or c'mon chruch padayun Kita sa pagdayeg satong buhi nga Diyos tungod Kay takos ug balaan Siya nga paga daygon busa atong awiton ......... Beginner lang po ako hehe🤗❤️

I usually say,:Praise the LORD this is the day that the Lord has made we will rejoice and celebrate for His goodness and greatness.

I usually say “GOOD EVENING REALJOY YOUTH! We have an awesome service planned for you tonight. We are going to kick things off with Praising and Worshipping our Jesus, but before we do that, I’m going to open us up in prayer! Father, in Jesus Name…”

I usually asked like "How are you today?" and they replied "Beyond great!" so I said "Hallelujah. That's all because God is good right? Some people who maybe feel not great these days, feel tired or failed, I just want to say that God is always good, and today I want you to feel it. The greatest time of your life, when you let God come in your heart. So let us prepare our heart and mind to focus, only on him." I think something like that.

Whatever message you give, be intentional and true. People would rather hear a short or slightly jumbled but passionate greeting rather than a poetic welcome without any passion or emotion behind it.

Good morning church! We are so glad you are here with us this morning. We are going to get ready to worship our King so if your able stand up and join us…that’s where I usually go ha

Hallelujah, happy Sunday Brothers, Sisters. God is good and we are here today to glorify our maker, our provider, our protector. Let us praise The Lord.

I just start by praying by myself, so I was asked to start allover because I was to lead people not praying to myself. I keep repeating the same words and songs. That's why am here to learn. I keep practicing till I please God's spirit😊

I usually say I was glad when they said unto me let us go into the house of the Lord ,and we enter with Thanksgiving and praise for he has been good to us all week let's worship together and welcome him in

I say Hallelujah hallelujah...lord we bless you.

Good morning everyone, we are here to worship Jesus Christ as our Lord, let us raise our voices in joy!

its always something based on ''good morning everyone!! welcome to church this morning. it is so wonderful to see you all here in the room and online this morning! let us start today in prayer and then get ready to praise our Heavenly Father'' this is all said in a high energy voice

Of course, as a worship leader you ALWAYS follow the Holy Spirit's lead and yield space for Him to move freely during your set. That's a given... This isn't about trying to override the Holy Spirit, it's for training purposes. For expanding your worship- leading skills They are tips which are helpful for overall improvement - These teachings are needed and much appreciated. Keep Going!

How's everyone doing this morning? Isn't God a good God? I don't know about you, but I came to lift up the name of Jesus. If you're with me let me hear you say "Hallelujah".

I usually say Hallelujah, praise the Lord, come and magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt his name together.

… I play the Biblical names of GOD so the congregation knows to come to their seats… & haven’t considered saying anything… I’m very new & very inexperienced as the Worship leader of our teeny Church… so much to learn but YAH will continue to show me what is needed to please HIM,,, that is the point to WORSHIP THE MOST HIGH for HE is worthy of all Glory Praise & Honor… Thanks for posting this! New subscriber! Shalom from Florida 🕊🪔🕊

I usually say Praise the Lord Church,we thank God for his grace and mercies for us. We are alive and together here today because of Him.May we rise and and worship Him. Appreciate his goodness for our lives. Then I pray to exalt a bit before I sing. If I don’t pray before I sing. I pray in between songs when the atmosphere is charged. Thank you for your guide. I am here cos I need guide to polish up. Love from Ghana🇬🇭

Steps resumed: 1. Use a countdown • This will help everyone know when worship will begin, and give them an opportunity to be there right at the start •Start on time! 2. Welcome everyone in a genuine way. • "As if you were talking to friends." • Think about the morning most church goers have had, be aware of the fact that an invitation to turn their focus to God may be needed 3. Point to truth. •Explain why you're doing what you're doing. • You can share a scripture etc. 4. Instruct. • Remember not everyone knows what to do • This step turns spectators into participants Great video!🙌🏽 Thank you!

I usually say "Good morning Victory Church! Will you stand with me and prepare your hearts for worship? We are here to worship the Lord Jesus, so let's sing out his praise together." Or something like this.

Bless the Lord Oh my Soul and ALL that is within me. Let us exalt His name together.

I usually say "Praise the Lord everyone! Praise the Lord everyone! Stand with me in the presence of our almighty God and let's join in worship!"

Hey Spencer...I’ve been leading Worship for more years than I care to remember.... let God go...unless you have a Holy Ghost Church....When people would not respond ....I would stop the singing and declare....were here to praise the Lord...I don’t care how you feel...I don’t care what kinda week you had....we’re here to Worship Jesus...

Welcome Elevate Life Church! We are so excited that you’re here with us! Go ahead and stand to your feet and worship with me this morning!

Good morning, we here to worship so let us open our hearts to worship

I'm glad and thankful there is video like this. I believe God does want us to prepare ourselves for worship, especially, if you are a worship leader. Sometimes, I have done the silent thing, but in my heart, I feel like that's not my best I can do for God. I have noticed that if I am more prepared to talk, then I am more confident to do so. I absolutely believe the Holy Spirit should be speaking through you, too, and preparing ahead of time helps you bring out the message of the Holy Spirit even more. A pastor, usually, prepares for the message, and I believe God is pleased with this preparation. Without practice, a musician would not be able to perform their best. God wants the best for us and from us. He unconditionally loves us no matter what we do. When we follow Jesus the best we know how and grow deeper in our relationship with our Heavenly Father, our lives become more and more blessed with the Holy Spirit and amazing Joy of the Lord! I think that is something worth practicing.💛

I do different things. "Nice to see you all this morning. Let's praise the Lord together because He is good" or "You are all looking good today. say hi to someone and welcome them to church this morning. Let's rise and worship the Lord together because He is great and greatly to be praised.

This instruction is excellent! As a professional educator, I know how important it is to offer clear instruction to all audiences. It helps each person in attendance to be actively engaged in what is being presented. I strongly believe this approach is so beneficial to honoring God. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.

Hallelujah,let's be on our feet as we worship The King of Kings and the lord of Lords. The Bible says in the present of God there's fullness of Joy.

Thank you for this, it's my first time to lead the praise and worship and I'm so excited!!

Well, my first time was last Sunday, and I was nervous. It didn't go well, but thank you for this. Now I'm excited to lead this Sunday

Good Evening, let's all rise up to your feet and prepare our hearts for worship

Hi, I'm Jillian from the Philippines and not so long ago before I started leading the worship. To answer the question in the first seconds of the vid, I usually open the worship by asking the congregation to greet the person next to them "Good morning sis/bro!" and say "Ang ganda/ ang pogi mo today" which translates to "You look beautiful and handsome today." Thank you for this video! Really guilty on saying those common phrases whenever I lack preparation. I want to improve for the glory of the Lord and lead a spirit-filled worship. :)

Good Morning welcome to VLCC this morning we are thankful to be here today to give God glory, honor and Praise

You are so right my Sunday morning vs. the average person's morning. The past years I have been serving in worship team and my mom is a staff member, so we both get to church 1-2 hours earlier than everyone. In our church the starting time is 9:30 and we're used to seeing people come in during the first song

I usually say. Good morning church! Let's prepare our hearts and minds as we sing praises to God--- and I'll start off with opening prayer.

Praise the Lord. Let stand and give God the praise. Let us rest open up with praise and worship with a song

Let us stand and go into the presence of the Lord....worship is not about us, but about Him! We were made to praise Him, so give Him Glory!

Good morning, This is the day that the Lord has made and will rejoice and be glad in it. We are so glad that you have decided to worship with us.

Holy Spirit is the best teacher.!!!

Good Morning Everyone! So glad you're here. I'm excited to worship with you all.

good morning everyone, welcome to our church, and to any newcomers we may have here for the first time, we are glad to have you worship with us.

One on my many openers: "Happy Sundayyyyyy Great morning This is the day that the Lord has made let's rejoice and be Glad in it so come and worship our God with us😂 (Smiling the entire time)

Start on time! The musicians and I used to worship wether the church was full or empty! I also used to start with ‘the Bible declares’ Scriptures is always a great said way into worship.

Hallelujah! Are you ready to praise the Lord? Then some encouragement word.

Good morning church,Praise the Lord we are gathered here to worship Him,are you ready?

I generally try to include something current - weather, time change, etc - and then lead into scripture relevant to the first song or focus of the service that day, however I have prepared it - whether I read it or just refer to it. This past Sunday was right after "Spring Forward" and the sun enters the sanctuary spectacularly so I spoke about The Light. Then I mentioned how reading different versions of scripture are enlightening and can sometimes shed new light on a specific reference, so I explained who JB Phillips was and read Romans 11:35-36 from the New Testament in Modern English and ended saying, Please stand and join us as we sing of our amazing, marvelous, wonderful Savior! And we sang I Stand Amazed (How Wonderful).

Praise God for you! I am leading Sunday and I haven't led worship in over two years.

My husband is the worship team leader but it has always been hard for him to know what to say. He watched your video and wanted to tell you how much it will him. Your informal instructions were very helpful. He wanted to to thank you very much.

Wonderful my brother sometimes we don't know what to do while we start worshipping in the church now I have known thanks very much

As for opening, I say Good morning New Life Center! Let’s give the Lord a great big Hallelujah! I read the verse of the day, Then I may say hello/welcome to the new people, maybe a small testimony, and say if you can honor the Lord by standing with us let’s pray. (Some people are older, it’s hrs for them to stand) We like to say the This is My Bible pledge...(I call it a declaration) After that, 11:00 and I start exactly at 11, when you start on time, people will see that will start being there on time.

I usually read verses from the Bible, mostly from the book of Psalms as a call to worship. Thank you so much for sharing this ❤

Am supposed to lead worship on Sunday and it will be my first time,am glad I have learnt something

Yes, the Spirit leads us. It is wonderful to enhance what we already know. We study God's Word, we learn to lead people into Worship.

Can’t get enough of this, I wrote down everything you said and am gonna go through it again to improve leading in worship. Thanks for sharing

Praise God, Church. Let us focus on Jesus and His love. Let us blot out the distractions and center our minds on Jesus our King. If you are able to, please stand and join me in raising a praise offering to God.

Ohh Lord I love you, I worship you, I bless your name for you are worthy to be worshipped...

Starts with always instructing myself and people to open our hearts

Welcome to the house of the Lord! We are so glad you are with us today.

thank you for this video . i came to Canada from Korea, so i'm not good at English yet but i need to lead worship sometimes in English. This video makes me clear how to say that. thank you so much :) Praise the Lord!!

I usually say. "Let's rise on our feet as we enter into the mood of worship."

Good morning church! Let’s stand to our feet and clap our hands. Reading scriptures occasionally

Thank you my colleague in the kingdom of our God 🙏I believe my job will be better this coming Sunday after taking notes in this training. 😇

I always start with..GOD IS GOOD..ALL THE TIME..Are you ready to Praise the Lord this morning..I can’t hear you..awesome let’s Praise the Lord🙏🙏🙏

Thank you.....yes the Holy Spirit will guide us too as we make our hearts ready.... blessings

Hey y’all! Glad we made it here this morning :) I’m gonna start with a song called “___________”. I want you to really focus on these words and tune your heart in to connect with The Father. He loves our songs, but they’re nothing without our hearts 💕 You can stand if you like, or stay seated if you need some more rest and reflection this morning. Every posture is welcome here. Jesus will meet you right where you’re at. Let’s sing these words out to God together...

safely through another week, praise God; I'm glad you are here.....

Hallelujah . "Are you happy to be in the presence of God? Turn to your neighbour tell him/her "something in the theme of the song". Amen!".

My first word when istand and lead worship is hallellujah..lets rise and praise rhe king of kings.....hope you can help me grow in my leading scheme

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. It's gonna be my first time leading worship and I'm super excited. I'm glad I found this video. It's awesome and of great help.

Us sually i always say Goodmorning church are you ready to serve and worship God the king of all kings and the Lord of Lords common church lets give our best worship to him and im blessed because you all here Amen hallelujah!!!

"Turning spectators into participants" - good way to word this 👍 Thanks for this break down.

I usually say good morning congregation welcome to church, we are in the best place this morning in the presence of God, let's praise God for all He's done for us

Thank you so much for sharing this video. This can be a big help for me, I am not really good in speaking publicly, but with this i know i can gain more confidence, and ofcourse by the help of the Holy Spirit. God bless you. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you very much ch for sharing this beautiful tip.I’m not a worship leader but sometimes I’ve been call to welcome the congregation and to lead hymn which first all is to welcome the trinity before we proceed.🙏🙏👍👍

Hey i am from india Let the lord will be glorified

Good morning Church, please let us be in the mood of worship

Usually ,. I begin it with welcome greetings and after that , by giving a inspiring verse and also depends by the leading of the holy spirit. Thank you for this tips as a worship leader ,it is very helpful for us .🤗♥️

Thank you so much! This is the best, most detailed breakdown I've ever heard. Most of the time I over complicate things and wind up not saying what's on my heart. God bless you and your ministry🤗

Praise the Lord everyone welcome to our service today...

Your tips/tricks/teaching has truly blessed me. Thanks for sharing! God Bless

Not quenching the holy spirit is very important. Leading by holy spirit is abve all. But he just said if we listen carefully , 4 formulas that you "can do" not you "must do." So it's still up to you if you will follow these formulas. When im leading worship, i always starts with illustrations and explains how we would respond to the love of God he has bewtowed for us. 😊 thanks for sharing though. :)

I was a bit skeptic of this video, but I'm glad I watched it... All of it. Thanks for sharing.

God is Good all the time!, this morning we're going to worship the king of king and the Lord of Lords, Amen?!

Now that we are having online/virtual worship because of the pandemic, my go-to introduction usually goes like this: Good morning everyone! How’s your week? I hope you had a good week, and a good night sleep last night. I hope everyone is ready and excited to worship our living God this morning. Even though we can’t have a face to face fellowship with each other, still we praise and thank our God for giving us the means to continue having fellowship with one another while worshipping Him. Then I’ll be reading a verse that is related to the song that we will be singing. Then i invite them to stand, raise/clap their hands with us if they can, even if they are at their respective homes.

I would say Good morning church how are you today? Are we ready to lift up our voices and give praise to King Jesus

Thank you so much. As a liturgist I like to bring something different to the worship experience. I will definitely use some of those pointers this Sunday!! thanks again.

This Sunday will be my first service as the Praise leader..pray for my nerves please

How many of u guys are excited to be in church tonight?!? ... amen!! Let’s stand up and sing this song to God .

Before I start to sing....Inopen ip in prayer. Thanking God for today....and then I invite the congregation to join us in worship and praise.

Welcome everyone in the presence of lord ,God serve our worship and praise ,let us praise him for his glory

Thank you so much!!!! I learned so much from your amazing 4 step instructions! Sadly, I blank out when i get nervous, and I feel I am a disservice when I do so. so planning something like this is so beneficial for me, and for the congragation, thank you! #subscribed

I begin by saying Praise God and then provide a song related scripture. Then I personalize and help congregates make a personal connection. Then ask them to stand in the presence of the Lord and let's praise in song.

Thank you so much for this video, so very helpful. We have prayer 20 minutes before the service starts at 10am and we start on time!

"Good morning, and welcome to Hillcrest Chapel. We're so glad you have come to join us in worshiping our Lord, so please, let's be on our feet and open with prayer together." I then pray that people can enter into the presence of God in worship, be refreshed in His presence, leave behind what might be distracting them, and that God would move through the word the preacher will be speaking in our lives. Something like that.

When i lead the worship, i use to start--- good morning beloved..let's all stand and welcome the holy spirit in our midst. And pause for a few minute to intune our heart in worship. By allowing the holy spirit to flow.

I usually say " let's stand up and begin to say something to the lord 🙏 because he has been good to us. Then I speak in tongues for like a minute and then raise my first song.

A very good morning to one and all .....First of all let's thank our heavenly father for giving us this previlege to worship him once angain🥰🥰

Love this! I’m growing in the public worship and this was great. It’s A challenge to implement but we’ll victorious by the power of the Holy Spirit
