Learn To Write Gospel Songs

If you have dreams of being a gospel song writer ehow wants to show you how to get there step-by-step.

I’m not so sure it’s quite as easy as they make it out to be, but it’s a great start. Publishers of songs get paid quite handsomely.

Some gospel songs are very simple songs and some of the gospel hits choruses have been no longer that 3 word lines. Gospel music can be simple to write but there are some techniques to be considered when you are writing it.

Step 1-Walk it. It is hard writing from the heart if the walk is not aligning with God’s word.

Step 2- Make sure you are writing from the heart. Be honest with your feelings.

Step 3- Get fired up! Praying before you write is known to get your mind, body and spirit in a creative mode and more receptive to hear from God. Reflect on some things God brought you through.

Step 4-Start writing. Decide who you are talking to. There are two kinds of gospel songs. Songs that praise God directly, and songs that praise God indirectly.

Step 5-Refer to the bible frequently. There is poems in there that can help you communicate certain feelings that you have inside.

Gospel Songs on The Billboard Charts

The top ten gospel songs on Billboard’s charts this week are:

1. BeBe & CeCe Winans-Close To You
2. James Fortune & FIYA-I Wouldn’t Know You
3. Fred Hammond f/John P. Kee-They That Wait
4. Mary Mary & KiKi Sheard-God In Me
5. Smokie Norful-Justified
6. Marvin Sapp-Praise Him In Advance
7. J Moss-Restored
8. Hezekiah Walker & LFC f/Marvin Sapp & DJ Rogers-God Favored Me
9. Donnie McClurkin f/Karen Clark Sheard-Wait On The Lord
10. Vickie Winans F/Tim Bowman Jr.-How I Got Over

I love all these gospel songs! I see that James Fortune & FIYA’s ” I Wouldn’t Know You” has moved up to the number two position. It just might take over BeBe & CeCe’s “Close To You” for position number 1.

BeBe & CeCe also has the number 1 position on the Gospel Albums chart for their CD Still. I was wondering if BeBe’s current legal situation would have any bearing on the continued success of their new CD. Looks like it hasn’t made a difference at all.
