Craft serves the congregation

A worship song has to be singable by people who are not musicians. Range, repetition and clear language are pastoral decisions, not artistic compromises.

Stewardship of the work

  • Register songs with a collecting society
  • Document splits with co-writers in writing before release
  • Keep clean recordings and stems archived
  • Budget for mixing and mastering as ministry infrastructure
