Topic: strumming for ''awesome God''

could someone please help me figure out a suitable strumming pattern for this worship song?
(the one here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M61u, I'm sure there are at least 3 with that name)
I can't even think of where to begin to build it, especially in the verses. Should I start with 4 or 8 beats per line? And how to develop it further? Nothing seems to sound right. Any ideas welcome smile

I'm not sure of the song you're wanting, but I found this link.

If this is the right song, it looks like it's played in 4/4. Good luck!

Sorry my posts are all so back to back...
Think I have the same song as Manicbassman. Assuming that is the right song, you should play it in 4/4 I think. Sounds like a tough verse to play, but the chorus should be simple. Have fun!

Re: strumming for ''awesome God''

Thanks guys, it is indeed the right song. So you suggest me to start with the chorus and pray inspiration comes for the verse? Sounds like a plan. Btw, thanks, I had forgotten how beautiful this song is and what a joy it is to worship. Had a bit of a emmm, unsuccessful week, had forgotten about the simple pleasures of being His child.
