My Lighthouse - Sheet Music for Rend Collective

„My Lighthouse" by Rend Collective as a lead sheet edition – the melody line with chord symbols leaves room for your own accompaniment and improvisation. The format is aimed at players with approximately three years of lessons: the intricate legato phrasing with many short slurs demands more control than a first glance might suggest.

Sheet Music „My Lighthouse" – Vibrant Worship Song as a Lead Sheet

Rend Collective is an Irish worship band that brings energy and a sense of community to church music. „My Lighthouse" is one of their best-known songs, released on the album Campfire (2013). The lyrics describe guidance and steadiness in times of doubt and uncertainty – a declaration of faith heard in congregations around the world. The melody carries that character directly: straightforward, with a clear forward momentum.

C major gives the piece an open, unadorned sound. The melody moves from C4 to G5 – roughly an octave and a half, covering the entire middle register without demanding extreme leaps. The consistently diatonic harmony – meaning all chords are drawn exclusively from the C major scale – keeps the harmonic language manageable and lends itself well to guitar or piano accompaniment. For those wishing to use the lead sheet in a worship setting, this is a real advantage: the chord changes follow a predictable pattern, allowing accompaniment and melody to come together quickly, even in smaller ensembles.

The tempo is 100 BPM in 4/4 time – a steady, forward-driving pulse that gives the song its characteristic momentum without rushing. The short slurs call for deliberate bow or breath management: establishing clean phrasing from the outset will prevent inaccuracies later in ensemble playing. A practical rehearsal tip: first sing or play the slurs in isolation without rhythm to develop a feel for the phrasing, then put it together at tempo. There are no major stumbling blocks; the real challenge lies in maintaining a consistent legato flow across the roughly 80 seconds of playing time.

This arrangement is well suited for intermediate musicians looking for worship repertoire for church services, youth groups, or community evenings – and who prefer a format that accommodates flexible accompaniment.
