“Say the Word” by Hillsong United is an acoustic worship song from the album Of Dirt and Grace, and this Say the Word chord chart gives guitar players a simple way to lead it in a worship setting. The song has a stripped-down, reflective feel that works especially well during intimate worship moments or acoustic sets.
The chords are straightforward and repeat throughout most of the song, making it approachable for acoustic guitar players and smaller worship teams. One of the unique elements of the arrangement is the use of layered harmonies, which help give the song depth while still keeping the overall feel simple and organic. Once you have the progression down, it’s more about feel, dynamics, and supporting the vocal than anything technically difficult. This chart is available in the key of G and B, along with a Nashville Numbers version for easy transposing.
