I start the first stanza with a simple piano patch with a mild strings background (using a guitar synthesizer) and progressively increase the momentum of the sound and rhythm pattern utilizing increasing intensity of distortion and strumming.

In the video illustration, I have attempted to start the song with a reasonably mild sound patch and build the momentum as we proceed through the stanzas of the song. While playing such songs as a team involving multiple instrumentalists during worship sessions (say a team involving an acoustic guitarist, an electric guitarist and a keyboard player), it may be good to introduce variations in sounds/rhythm patterns for the various stanzas of the song. Songs like Enna en aanandham do not have a separate chorus (just the stanzas). The second video is more about the variations that can be introduced using electric guitars/keyboards for such songs.
