Worship is an integral part of our lives, as we acknowledge God in our everyday dealings. In prayers, in songs, in study, in exercising our faith we are in continual conversation with Him.

In songs, our hearts speak melodies and extol His name.
This song has been performed by Benjamin Dube live, with a very engaging worship tone and flow. It has such emoting tunes and choice of instruments. The harmony of the choir voices just cements the worship vibe very accurately.

Playing this piece had me really engage with the motions of the song while playing, and I had to just keep myself to the performance as I just wanted to lift my hands and flow along.

Join along with me as I play my sax rendition of the song!

Lyrics (Musixmatch):
Bow down and Worship Him
Bow down and Worship Him
Worship Him, Oh Worship Him!
Bow down and Worship Him
Bow down and Worship Him
Worship Him, Oh Worship Him!
Jesus the king of kings
Jesus the king of kings
Worship Him
Oh Worship Him!
Jesus the king of kings
Jesus the king of kings
Worship Him
Oh Worship Him!
Consuming fire, sweet perfume
His Awesome Presence fills this place
For this is Holy ground
So come lets bow down
Consuming fire, sweet perfume
His Awesome Presence fills this place
For this is Holy ground
So come lets bow down
Glory to the Lord Jesus
Bow down and Worship Him
Bow down and Worship Him
Worship Him, Oh Worship Him!

Thanks for listening!

What to say and not repeat what I have been already told? So amazing sound you have and excellent work. Oh well, I can say that today's entry exceptionally shines with all the improvisation parts!! So beautiful participation @draysax

Thank you so much @mipiano
I'm always glad to see my sound entertain and have great feedback from you!

hehehe, you are welcome :))
you are doing very very well! 🎶

You play so well bro.
I enjoyed every bit of it.

I would like to ask a few questions.
The device you used in recording is different from the one playing the music right?

If not, how did you do the whole thing?

Thank you so much for listening @jessicaossom
Very glad you enjoyed it!

I recorded the audio live,through a microphone and soundcard to a computer using Audacity, an audio recording app...
A soundcard enables you to hear the music via headphones while recording.

Here's my audio and instrument setup. Also included it at the end of the post.

Soundcard?
Is that like an app one has to install to use?

It's an audio interface device that processes sound from a microphone and converts it to high quality digital audio, which it feeds a computer usually via a USB connection.

So it's general AIM is to provide great sound via USB for recording/editing on your computer.

It looks like this.

They come in various types and sizes, with various capabilities, the major differences being the level of quality of sound and the amount of inputs they can take.

Summarily, all it does is to supply quality audio to your computer and your headset.

You can now decide what app you want to use on your computer to record/edit the audio.

Okay, thanks for the explanation.
I don't even have a computer

You can actually get good audio without a computer too.
All you need is a good microphone! And there are a few affordable mics that can do the job.
Some phones do actually have great mics inbuilt too.

Long before now, I'll record straight into a phone and get some useful audio.
It's about how well one can use what you have on your hands.

Oh alright.
Thanks alot

This is a powerful one bro..
