My God Is So Great, So Strong And So Mighty: Lead Sheet / Fake Book

A sturdy affirmation wrapped in a straightforward melody. The harmonic language is direct and accessible, making this a song that children can grasp immediately while still offering enough musical space for thoughtful interpretation and genuine expression of faith.

Pianists and singers in children's choirs, Sunday school programs, and early elementary music classrooms. This lead sheet works for pianists who read chord symbols fluently and want the freedom to create an accompaniment that fits the room and the moment.

• Encourage the pianist to listen as much as play. The keyboard voice should support and highlight the melody without overwhelming it, especially when working with younger singers.
• Experiment with chord voicings. A lead sheet invites flexibility in how you voice harmonies, so try different inversions and registrations to match the energy level of each verse.
• Establish a steady harmonic rhythm before rehearsal begins. Decide whether the accompaniment will stay sparse and hymn-like or gradually build texture as confidence grows.

Use this as a flexible opener or closer in chapel services, church school programs, or community concert moments where accessibility matters. The single page format makes it ideal for quick rehearsals and spontaneous performances when you need something that reinforces confidence in young singers.

• Reading and interpreting lead sheets with chord symbols
• Singing sustained lines with clear projection
