Free MultiTrack from New Batch of Hymns Released

Our free track this month is from a brand new batch of 20 hymn backing tracks from Nathan Drake at Reawaken Hymns.

Jesus Thine All Victorious Love is taken from the brand new album Hymns of the Spirit. It comes with a free simple chord chart.

The song uses the original words from the old hymn with a new melody written by Nathan Drake. The song has an indie rock worship sound. Other songs on the album all use the traditional melodies but with a contemporary feel. You can listen to samples of each song by clicking the video below.

Jesus Thine All Victorious Love comes with the original WAV files for use in a DAW such as Ableton, and Transition Tracks for Worship Backing Band’s Mac/PC or iPad Transition MultiTrack Player. MultiTracks are the simplest and least expensive solution to get a full band sound from your worship team, even if you’ve only got a couple of musicians.

The song is also available as a Split Track. If you’ve not seen our Split Tracks before this is a good opportunity to download one and see what you think of the format. On-screen words and “split track” vocals.

The full list of new hymns available (and links) is:
Abide With Me
Be Still My Soul
Be Thou My Vision
Breathe On Me Breath Of God
Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Day By Day
Doxology (Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow)
He Leadeth Me

The free download is for an upbeat contemporary style song called “You Are My God (Strong Tower).” The lyrics are based on scriptures from Psalm 18:2-3, Proverbs 18:10 and Romans 11:36. (“The name of the Lord is a Strong Tower…”)

Top 20 Backing Tracks 2021-22

  21. Here I am to Worship (Light of the World)
  22. O Come to the Altar
  23. Open The Eyes of My Heart
  24. Reckless Love
  25. The Father’s House

It is interesting how the best selling MultiTracks and Split Tracks differ. This is likely due to larger churches buying MultiTracks (because they have existing musicians, larger worship teams and want more versatility in their worship services). Split tracks tend to be purchased by smaller churches that tend to prefer older, more established songs and have often not yet discovered the newer releases. So for instance, our number one selling MultiTrack, Graves Into Gardens, does not even feature in our Split Track top 25.

So if you are in a small church and haven’t yet discovered some of these newer songs such as Graves into Gardens, House of the Lord and The Father’s House do have a listen and consider introducing them to your services.

10 new backing tracks

10 brand new backing tracks in MultiTrack and Split Track format. We have selected song keys and arrangements to suit congregational worship. The song choice represents a nice mix of genres with old and new hymns, newer songs, some gospel tracks and a couple of older favourites.

Click the video below to listen to the tracks and click the song links to download.

Behold Our God – Sovereign Grace Music

Originally recorded by Sovereign Grace Music, this arrangement has been transposed to a congregational friendly key and can feature a female lead. The lyrics focus on God’s majesty and authority.

I Call You Faithful – Donnie McClurkin

From American Gospel singer and minister, Donnie McClurkin, comes this popular praise song with easy to follow lyrics and up-beat rhythms and grooves. A great song to introduce a different style of music into your worship service.

Once Again – Matt Redman

A classic praise and worship song written and recorded by one the Contemporary Christian Music pioneers, Matt Redman. A great message of God’s mercy and faithfulness in our times of need.

He Will Hold Me Fast – Keith and Kristyn Getty

A beautiful and emotional arrangement based on Keith and Kristyn Getty’s rendition. The lyrics are a powerful message and assurance of Christ’s faithfulness to us.

I Speak Jesus – Here Be Lions / Charity Gayle

A powerful new worship song originally written and recorded by the group, “Here Be Lions,” and more recently performed by Charity Gayle. This arrangement follows the original recording, but is transposed into a more congregational friendly key for both male an female voices.

Resurrection Hymn – Stuart Townend & Keith Getty

An upbeat modern hymn based on Stuart Townend’s live recording. Perfect for Easter or with any message about resurrection or defeating death. Super congregational friendly!

Because of Who You Are – Martha Munizzi / Vicki Yohe

This powerful gospel ballad has been recorded by many artists, but probably most recognised by Vicki Yohe’s version. This arrangement is based on her recording, but placed in a slightly lower/more congregationally friendly key.

Yes I Will – Vertical Worship

One of the most well-known praise and worship songs from the group “Vertical Worship.” The lyrics are filled with the theme of standing firm in our faith and speaking the name of Jesus with confidence.

To God Be the Glory – traditional hymn

This arrangement of the popular traditional hymn, “To God Be the Glory,” is based on the triple-meter swing feel of the recording by Stuart Townend. An easy to sing congregational favourite!

Every Praise – Bishop Hezekiah Walker / Love Fellowship Tabernacle

Get ready to clap your hands and stomp your feet! This up-beat Gospel praise song comes from the Love Fellowship Tabernacle in New York led by Bishop Hezekiah Walker.

 

Free MultiTrack: Anchor of My Soul

The free track for March, Anchor of My Soul, is by Calvary Chapel worship leader Kevin McCarthy. Kevin says “I love music. I love attitude. I love a good hook. But mostly I’ve come to find the meaning of ALL of it, through a love for God and His Son Jesus Christ.”

Anchor of My Soul is the title track from his album of songs designed to point others to the heart of God through songs that bless and encourage those who sing and hear them.

It was inspired by three passages: Isaiah 43 where God promises to be with us despite walking through rivers or fire, Daniel’s protection from the Fiery Furnace and Hebrews 6 which describes our hope as an anchor of the soul that is sure and steadfast.

Do enjoy sharing this song with your congregation.

The MultiTrack is designed for use in Worship Backing Band’s Mac/PC or iPad Transition MultiTrack Player. This song is not configured for other WAVs.

It is available totally free-of-charge this month only and comes with a free chord chart. Please remember to note the CCLI number 7101400 for reporting song use in church.
