Hey Brenton  my brother is teaching me how to play the guitar but, he dose not know how to teach me to strum!!!!!     I know the cords to
Lord Reign In Me but, I do not know the strumming patterns.    So if you could help me that would be great.   Thank Linnea

if you have a recording of the song, just listen to the rhythms and then try to imitate that.

"The fight is over now, the bright lights turned somehow
The strength I have is running out, the current pulls me down

I'm wondering

Is anybody out there, who's cold and incomplete, inside?
I can hear Him calling
Come and follow Me, My child..."

That would work. Just it seems they haven't posted back on this topic. Since they posted this topic back in December of last year. But maybe they will post back on this topic some time.

I like Skillet and thousand foot krutch and they are christian!

my fave song ever is whispers in the dark by Skillet


For god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life
John 3:16

One way to learn at first, something that I did with my cousin, is buy a metronome and set the beats between 75-100.  Then practice strumming the guitar one beat at a time.  I know this sounds boring, and it is, but it train you to play on beat and in time, which is absolutely critical.  If you can't play in time you're going to struggle for a long time; train your mind and hears now.  After a while you'll find yourself being able to do other strum patterns without even really thinking about it.  That's my suggestion.
