Overwhelmed - Big Daddy Weave (A Cappella Cover)

Overwhelmed
Words and Music by Michael Weaver & Phil Wickham
A Cappella Arrangement by David Wesley
©2011 Phil Wickham Music, Seems Like Music, Sing My Songs, Curb Songs, Weave Country
I fell in with this amazing Big Daddy Weave song a number of years ago, and had planned to record it way back in 2018. The original has a children's choir singing words in Swahili, which were difficult to track down. Between this obstacle and other priorities getting in the way, Overwhelmed went on the back burner. I realized a couple of weeks ago that it was time to bring it to life. I had no written arrangement for this - just the chord progression to keep me in tune and in time. I hope you enjoy my take on the song!

I was just reading my Bible and this song came to my mind. I take my phone and I see your notification! I'm so overwhelmed by God. God bless you, Br. David! Continue to use your beautiful voice to glorify God like King David!

This song makes me think of Isaiah seeing the Lord high and lifted up and how overwhelmed he was! Beautiful rendition as always 🩷🙌🏻

[@jamescole7686]

Thank you for the Saturday morning blessing, bro!! I’ve heard this song before, but never really paid attention to one line until just now as I listened to your rendition: “God, I run into Your arms. Unashamed b/c of Your mercy.” What a powerful truth!! And oh, the whistling is waaay cool-super creative and sounds awesome🤙🏼

[@peniel_ulao24]

Always love your arrangements. Another one of those ones. Praise to our God.❤🎉

[@noel4424]

This is a beautiful praise to our Lord! Every background part is heard so well, the bass, the whistling, every part so we’ll balanced with none overpowering . I too love “…run into Your arms unashamed because of mercy…”. Will share. ♥️

[@kathleensheehy]

Beautiful and uplifting. And wow do you have an overwhelming collection of hoodies!😅

[@JonathanCorwin]

I've long thought that this is primarily an outlet for David to showcase his hoodie collection and it was just an accident that he happened to be quite a good singer too 😉

[@DavidWesley]

I’ve been meaning to make a video about my hoodie collection.

[@ronniebozeman5059]

Love it David! I love that what you sing is Christ centered...all about him

David, Thank you for this arrangement :) It's a fitting tribute to our Heavenly Father this Father's Day. I like the way you layered the 2 melodies at the ending :) Wishing you a Happy Father's Day as well 😊

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

David! I LOVE THIS!!! It's awesome and beautiful, and the timing is PERFECT for "the now," worldwide! On June 14, I wrote a new article on my website, that I can't link to here, but I'm sending you the link by e-mail. The written article will also be published, audibly, on my Grandma's Got Grace channel, on Monday, June 19, and the link to this video will be in that description (as it already is, in the written version). Grandma HUGS!

[@timothyblack1098]

I think it would be amazing if you sang a cover of Abide, by Dwell songs as a capella with harmony, my family sings it frequently during our morning devotional and we some times follow along with a video because the younger kids are still trying to learn the words and tune. I'd love to follow along with you.

So beautiful!!!!!!🎉
