Great Things Lyrics and Song Review:
“Great Things” is a Phil Wickham worship song that was co-written by Jonas Myrin and is from the album “Living Hope” released in 2018.
Musically, the song is in 4/4 time and is pretty upbeat. It’s in the key of B; so, it’s best to play it on guitar with a capo on the 4th fret in G. Of course, you can adjust you capo position in case you need a higher or lower key that fits either a male or female vocal better.
For instance, the play-along video above is in the key of G, which may be a little more comfortable for a male vocal.
Because the song is 102 beats per minute, it’s on the faster side and requires a pretty quick strum pattern. I’ll cover a few different ways to play it in the guitar tutorial above.
There are also a few different ways to play it, depending on the part of the song. The bridge, for instance, starts down and then ramps up. Once you know the different strum patterns for the different parts of the song, you’ll be able to play right along.
You’ll also learn how to play the intro lick in case you are interested. This is a simple 2 string lick for electric; however, you can also play it on acoustic.
