These Gospel Chords Will Breathe New Life Into Any Hymn!

In this video, I take the classic hymn Fill My Cup, Lord and transform it with modern gospel reharmonization techniques. I break down chord substitutions, passing chords, and voicings like major 9ths, minor 11ths, dominant 13ths, and chromatic movements to create a richer, contemporary sound. I also explore harmonic concepts such as 6-2-5-1 progressions, tritone substitutions, and altered dominants to add color and movement.
