"I will rise when he calls my name, no more sorrow, no more pain, I will rise on eagles wings before my God; fall on my knees, and rise, I will rise."
— Chris Tomlin
There's a song that I used to play with a band... it's called Be Glorified and I just love it because it really rocks and is fun to play. I like hearing the bass. It was written in 1999 with words and music by Louie Giglio, Chris Tomlin and Jesse Reeves.
The song is from the Chris Tomlin Collection with 15 worship songs. Be Glorified is just one of my many favorites. Perhaps it's fun to play because of the easy progression and all the suspended chords. Sometimes we play it a bit faster but it has a lot of words so that slows it down a bit.

Fsus2 = F/CFG
Csus2/E = E/CDG
F add2 = F/CGA
G = G/BDG
G5 = G/DG
Am7 = A/CEG
Em7 = E/EGD
G/B = B/DGB
C = C/EGC
D= D/DF#A
Awh, repetition is a good thing. Recycle those chords over and over throughout the song!
