4th Commandment of Worship Songwriting
Jul 13, 2023My new course is out and on sale!
It's called "Deeper Worship Lyrics" and it is designed especially for the worship songwriter.
To celebrate the launch, we are going through my "Ten Commandments of Worship Songwriting".
Today we look at the 4th commandment:
"If you coddle a pet lyric, your song will suffer."
A pet lyric is a line that was too cute to kill. No line in your song should be above the red pen of the editor. If you have a little turn-of-phrase that has smitten you, I guarantee it is making your song worse. Dump it.
