What is the strumming pattern please

[@HowIPlayGospelSongsonGuitar]

I don't have a set "one" pattern for this. As the original is more of a calypso rhythm, I try to compensate with a combination of D/U/D/D/U/D/U and D/D/U/U/D/U as well as D/U/D/U/U/D/U. All while incorporating some hammer-ons and pull-offs. Pretty confusing I know and very, very loose. I would say pick one, like D/D/U/U/D/U and try it and see which feels better.

what is your strumming pattern

Try one of these: D/U/D/D/U/D/U - or - D/D/U/U/D/U - or - D/U/D/U/U/D/U to see which feels better.
