Music
1) Singability (Is the lyrical pattern consistent and easy to pick up if you don’t know the song? Are there tricky parts? Is the range of notes easy to sing, or is it really high or low in parts?)
*
2) Style (What style of music is it? Is it a good fit for the group at Connect? Is it “contextually appropriate”?)
*
3) Pace (Is it upbeat? Is it slow? We're seeking balance.)
*
4) Can our band handle it? (As best as you can tell, can the song be played by a band with a guitar, keyboard and drums? Does the song rely on challenging solo parts?)
*
Lyrics
5) Biblical Accuracy (Are there lyrics that are inconsistent with God’s truth? Do some lyrics come straight from scripture? Are they clear, or are they ambiguous?)
*
6) Biblical Richness (Is there a level of depth in the truths of the song? Do they exalt the greatness of God’s character and deeds? Is there too much repetition?)
*
7) Theme (What is the song about? What character attributes or deeds of God are featured? Do we already sing a lot of songs with that theme? We're seeking variety.)
*
8) Type (praise or response) (Are we primarily singing praises that exalt God, or are we singing about our response to God’s blessings in our lives (or both)? Again, we're seeking balance. Or is there a different focus? E.g. Does the song seek to tell a story?)
*
9) Perspective (What is the perspective: I/me/my or we/us/our? We're seeking balance, but we’re low on “we/us/our” songs.)
