Fall on Your Knees

Welcome to the year 2012...10 days ago!
This post serves to announce that because the last David Crowder*Band album "Give Us Rest or (a requiem mass in C [the happiest of all keys])" released today, I desired to upload a cover of one of the songs from that album on YouTube. I was able to fulfill this desire yesterday because they (i.e. the band) released their album at the Passion 2012 conference on January 3rd! Thus, I would like to share my version of the chord chart I used in performing the piece:
