Songs Of Heaven: Writing Songs For Contemporary Worship

Over many years, Amanda has cast her heart and mind into the negative space behind and in-between every word you see printed on our Hillsong lyric sheets. Often helping our writers see things they haven’t seen, understand complexities of thought and emotional conflicts of poetry and theology, and pushing many a song from OK, to something richer.

Covering such topics as:

• a theology of worship,
• the power of song sung to God,
• the qualities of a God-centered songwriter,
• the importance of structure,
• writing the music: melodies, harmonies and rhythm,
• The major themes in the Psalms and much more!
