Unstoppable God – Elevation Worship – Resources

Unstoppable God is a great upbeat song by Elevation Worship from the Wake Up The Wonder album. I really like the lyrics in this one, and the half-time groove in the chorus is a lot of fun. We use this one as an opener or anywhere we want a high energy song.

In our resources we play it in the key of A using key of G chords with a capo on the 2nd fret. The album key is B, so if you’d like to play along with the album, just put your capo on the 4th fret. I find that it’s pretty high in the album key of B.

Strumming Patterns

For the intro and verses, you’ll want to use a constant down-up pattern, but the chord changes happen on the ups. It’s kind of a difficult thing to do if you’re just starting out, but it goes like this:

[hr]

1   2   3   4   , 1   2   3   4   ,...

d u d U d u d U , d u d U d u d U ,...

[hr]

When you get to the chorus, solo, and bridge sections, and the strumming pattern is:

[hr]

1   2   3   4   , 1   2   3   4   ,...

d       d   d U ,   u d u d   d U ,...
