How to lead singing in a home group or small group
Simple ways to lead worship and singing in a living room, a prayer group or a youth group, with everyone reading the same words.
Home groups, prayer groups and youth groups often sing in a living room with no screen and no sound desk. The leader may also be the one playing the guitar. What helps most is everyone having the words, without fuss.
Step by step
Keep the list short
Choose a few songs the group knows, or one new song at a time. Paste the words or pick from the free library.
Send the link before you meet
Share the join link in the group's WhatsApp. People open it when they arrive, with nothing to install.
Let the words move on their own
If your hands are busy with an instrument, set the seconds per line and let the words advance by themselves.
Include everyone
Anyone can make the letters bigger or use dark mode in a dim room. Readings and prayers work the same way as songs.
