In this video I show how simply using the G, C, D chords you can play all of your favorite old hymns like "I'll Fly Away" "Because He Lives" "Blessed Assurance" "Amazing Grace" "Victory in Jesus"
Many people think you have to play up and down the neck of the guitar but using only the 2nd and 3rd fret you can play most of the classics.
Thanks for your support!
God bless!
Matt

@@acousticselection Howdy 🤠 young man ,
I was just praying & pouring myself out to God and asking if it was what He wanted, that He would have to show me the way.
I said God, I know I might not ever really be a top quality musician , but could I have your spirit and help me learn my Acoustic guitar, and learn banjo, and mandolin, & violin, and bass, so I can lead small study Bible groups or even big groups,. That nothing is impossible for you, if it is your will. I just want to play and sing and express my feelings toward you God and share my devotion with other believers so to encourage them in the things of God.
And so soon after I stood up and phone in hand, I googled old time gospel songs on utube.
That was the first thing that came to mind. It like came natural,, the Lord put those words on my mind in that moment..
So first thing up popped you.
So I touched on video and there you are with the plainest way to start learning gospel songs..
I immediately started crying, then realized, this is from God.
I had told Him that I was going to need the Holy Spirits help in learning & understanding how to play. So thank GOD HE provided me with you..
Your first video has been so easy using G C D cords.
I am going to watch over and over again.
Your up close video of fingering is totally what has done it right of the bat for me.
I knew right there, that this is from God , and I can learn and God can use me to share His word & my heart with folks..
I told Him I wanted him to use me that way. That ,that was what was and is on my heart.
I remember thinking while I was praying, God you know my heart.
Thankyou young man.
You truly are my brother in Christ Jesus...
My name is brother Harvey, some places known as brother Barnabas.
A man with encouragement, faith and who loves God..
I am going to toughen up my fingers again and not let them get soft no more, I am on this.
God is good, God is providing.
I am trusting in God.
God bless you in all you do.
And remember, pray & read your Bible everyday...
Fantastic. Great enthusiasm that rubs off too.
Thanks for the help. Love the old hymns.
One song I wish I could play that I remember at church camps was .. it only takes a spark. Many years singing it around the camp fire.
Thank you so much for the lesson. God Bless!!
Brother I see the glow of God on yah love yah
Thank you so much my Brother in Christ, I can play chords but have problem with strumming, you just inspired me by watching this video, God Bless You Always!!

A million thanks from Nigeria.
Yessirr Hallelujah G C and D !😊
Thank you..have a great day.
Wow very awesome! Thank you so much.
Amen, I want to learn again
Loved it! Gonna play in an old folks home tomorrow and this lowered the anxiety a bunch.
These are the songs they will want to sing and they don't care about the key or chord progressions. Bless you brother!
My grandmother had Alzheimer’s and remembered no one in her family but she knew all the words to the gospel hymns …it was like that was her only clear moments in her later years. Bless you for doing what you do …it means so much to the residents and their family’s.
Amazing! Thank you so much!
Thank you. I am going to try it
Huge cover! keep it :))
Amen🙌🙏 Praise God
Brilliant! You're such can inspiration...thank you, God bless!! :)
awesome!
I want to learn the old hymn "Without Him" on guitar.
I’m currently practicing slapping my guitar with “Because He Lives” . I hope to catch on soon. I’m hoping that my playing percussion through Highschool will give me a little edge with picking up good rhythm🤞🤞🤞🤞
I’m a new worship leader and so far I just play mainstream songs. Loving to learn some hymns to sing
Thank you for your motivation!! I have been getting so frustrated and ran across this video and am glad
You are so welcome!
Enjoy your Godly spirit!!!!
Nice one brother! I am new to your channel. I love hymns.
Thank you!
I saw you had tab music for “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms”. It’s my mom’s favorite song and since she is the one who got me a guitar, I figure I should master that song first. I love it because there is a lot of easy percussion beats that sound great with it. I’m sounding pretty good on it and am just so happy! Thanks for all your guidance. 2 weeks ago, I knew nothing about guitar and now I’m playing some songs’. Feels awesome to praise God in a new way!
I'm researching best christian guitar courses and discovered an awesome resource at Worship Fixer Formula (look it up on google)
how to play country christian songs with guitar chords
I'm studying how to play christian guitar and found a great resource at Worship fixer formula (look it up on google)
Greetings from India bro.
awesome!
Wow
Thx matt
I really enjoyed this video. It's simple, and to the point. I typically play surf and rockabilly stuff but I've been wanting to see about bringing old gospel songs into the mix, because rock n roll has gospel roots and I'd like my playing to glorify God, otherwise it would be a waste of my time.
Ooo don't wanna limit yourself like that. God never stops speaking. Wisdom in all things if you look for it. God made you and the world around. All things are God and his lessons shine the strongest even in the gritty. I've never been much for covers because writing songs comes easily through me. After meeting God I thought all I could write was praise music. I later found out I can uplift I wider range of people if I'm not slapping a spiritual label all over everything I do and pigeonholing myself. Now I write whatever comes. Country, gospel, grunge, pop, blues, and my shit moves people to tears and they tell me it helps them and causes them to look at their lives. Maybe they find jesus, maybe they find Buddha. Doesn't matter cause in the process they find themselves and become a force for positive change in the here and now.
A full cup can hold nothing else.
God bless.
Matt u help me soo much
Awesome!
Thank you so much
You’re welcome!
Thanks man you taught me alot and you make it look so easy, you do an awsome job, keep it up . I'm going to order the DVDs on your site. I'm going to try and get my wife to learn the piano. 😉

Waoh... great lesson for beginner. Keep it up
Thanks for watching
@@acousticselection As a beginner I'm learning so much from your videos. May God bless you and your wonderful family
very cool Matt. Keep reminding the new players that the guitar is a "rhythm" instrument. Yep, don't worry about the strumming, learn the muscle memory, build those finger pads and keep practicing. I'm subscribed and follow you.
so true Paul!
The Lord put guitar in my heart and hand and it teach in a way that is clearly understood so from my heart to yours thank u and God bless u abundantly... I also have another question i wrote many many songs is there away i can somehow put my songs out there on a song sheet or something where i can learn the chords to it
Great lesson thanks that's a different way of doing a c
exactly! it sounds similar and is quick to change to for beginners
Please play the simple chords for We have this Hope brother.. thank you and God bless your music ministry
Hey Matt Thank you for all you do. I've learnt alot from you.
God took the drugs and alcohol and gave me a guitar...
Could you teach " your still God by Phillipa Hanna please? Thank you Jeff
The Lord has called me to the jail ministry about 6 months ago and I can not take in any electronics. So I am learning the guitar. I’m getting there. Strumming is kicking my tail. Definitely be ordering your song book and your 20.00 for life videos... Blessings to you Brother. Thinking we will see each other in the clouds soon! Till then lets be about our fathers business!
Hey
How are you doing with this. I saw this comment today and I will be praying for you brother. May God prosper the work (His work) of your hands to His glory.
@@tracyspencerokulczyk3 Good afternoon, I am still playing. Slow process but it has been so much fun. My wife and kids and I have been going to the elderly homes and playing the old hymns! So much fun. This morning my wife and I worked the nursery. So we were playing the kids songs this little light of mine ect.... My wife bought me a new Taylor... So I told my Dad I have a 1,500.00 guitar and 50.00 worth of talent 🤣 Thank you Brother for thinking of me and your prayers.... Blessings
I'm really enjoying the way your showing how to play the song. Could you please help with finger placement with the pinky and ring finger please. Most difficult for me. Thank you Bro
Thanks so much what type of picture do you use for country songsBy Luke Bryan
Matt thank you so much for for your guitar video's you are the reason I picked up the guitar in the first place your an inspection to many
Huge! Glad I could help!
Thanks for this video! I play the ukulele instead of guitar - I found this very helpful!
God-bless you man you're doing the Lord to work. I used to play regularly but I could never learn hymns with just the GCD chord progression you have opened my eyesAnd God-bless you for it. I do have some talent with the guitar nothing to boast at all but this simplifies hymn songs hymnal songs. I want to check out your keyboard hymnal songs also hymnal Because I'm interested in the keyboard as well as I do have one. I fell into the trap of trying to play play 10 Fritz of tfrets Sorry I'm using I'm using speech to text as I'm on a tablet I'm helping a pastor in a startup church as I am also a minister but spent more time in The Bible than the guitar so I thank you God-bless you and your family and I'll be looking for those digital lessons !
good stuff brother!
Thank you for the tutorials very helpful .. I’m an old rock and roll fan and have never belonged to a church…I’m 63 …do you think it’s too late for me to part of a music ministry in church somewhere? I really like the upbeat songs…love the happy good man’s Florida boys . Have a little talk with Jesus …I’ll fly away…looking for a city some of my favorites. There is a real funny song Excuses..do you know that one by chance?
I agree with Chocolate Almond 👍
This is great, just came accross this after struggling to hold my G Chord...you have simplified everything and within minutes I am playing worship songs...loving it.
I discovered an awesome compilation of videos that may help on Worship fixer formula
Thank you sir. I need to get your song book purchased. Your music ministry is awesome and appreciated... I shouldnt just say music ministry- all of your your ministry is appreciated.
thank you Donnie! i really do appreciate that!
Do you have a video for how to play shout to the north thank you
@ acoustic selection-I had trouble saying amazing grace (my chains are gone) instead I kept saying amazing chains (my grace is gone). And now I don't say amazing chains (grace is gone )I say amazing grace (my chains are gone) . I had practice saying the right song title several times to get it right.
Play Lost friends- by Johnny Curtis please 🥺🙏
I love this song so much so can you teach me how to play it on guitar?
Come to our church!!! We need a worship leader!! :-)
i'm not that good! ha
Hey Mat is you 4 chord worship songs book only digital or is there a hard copy let me know I want a hard copy because I'm not computer savvy thanks
It’s all digital.. I’ve had many people go to staples and print it though
How do you know Matt which chords to play for a specific hymn? example: I'll Fly Away. I really like your videos, keep up the good work! :-D
easiest way is to look for the song name and chords at different sites online.
🤜🤛
it would be great in the description the teacher gave the chords sequence.
Thank you! Just to let you know that the verse of the song He gives and takes away is not what our God is like. That was Job speaking who was NOT in the same Covenant we are in.
God does give and take away. You clearly have not learned that lesson yet. You will as you grow closer to the Lord. What Job said is still the Word of God
hey Matt if you don't mind me asking what church do you go to?
love my church..i go to the Summit Church in raleigh, NC
Hi Matt I'm a new beginner but I live in Creedmoor I go to Be them Don Westbrooks church. It's very nice know someone teaching guitar on here is down rd from me. Great job all teaching .
Sorry Bethel Christian Center
I can't access the website, is there another way I can be able to have access?
you're trying acousticselection.com and it's not working?
@@acousticselection okay I got it, Blessings
How to play Crowder , All my hope
"blessed assurance" the old gospel hymn, "bless-id assurance" did i miss it? Or was that the new version? Guess i was mistaken. Good job anyways, thanks s lot!👍👍
Okay. I'm confused now. Were you playing a fourth chord? It looks like a modified (for your method specifically) E chord. Or...am I due for an eye appointment? Lol
I might have thrown in an E minor (my version) there at some point ha
Matt don't recognize that D chord ....?
His voice was on , but the guitar off.
How do you learn how to play and sing
it can def be tricky! I have a video or two "Matt McCoy play and sing" check those out.
@@acousticselection yeah definitely hey man thanks for the respond
Please teach on guitar blessed assurance Jesus is mine😀
Hahaha I'll slap why way to eternity..😀😃 anyways thnx..
Give me guitar 🥺
I like to see you not using a pick. I play so much better without a pick. The tradeoff is my fingernails stay ripped to shreds but I make a joyful noise
Well I'm just going to follow chocolate almond with da day du do u do mo me so mah! U b mazn cuz da skil u b makn yo mah ainya no fakn!
Why are you not an artist?
Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH The Father In Heaven’s LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can be forgiven of your sins!
HE Loves you! Come to HIM🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
amen!
You said amazing grease 🤣
🤣🤣
@@acousticselection lol
I appreciate the video/help, but it'd be better to not tap. It's a an unnecessary extra distraction noise. The tap is too out of harmony high pitched
