As for music for youth choir (I don't know the ages that comprise of your choir so you'll have to choose songs that are age appropriate for them), you could choose to do a hymn and add your own flavor to it by adding a contemporary sound to it and making your own arrangement of it that suits your choir

*~ "This Is The Day" (traditional)
~ "This Little Light Of Mine"
*~ "Thank You Lord" by Mississippi Children's Choir
*~ "Praise Him" (praise Him when the sun goes down)
~ "Oh How I Love Jesus"
*~ "Lift The Savior Up" (Olanda Draper/Joe Pace)
~ "Higher Higher" (lift Jesus higher)

***************************************************
Here's a few simple songs that would be great to teach for a workshop, because
there's very few words to them and they're easy for the kids to pick up (I provided some clips to some of the listed songs, but you can go to the online retailers I listed towards the bottom to listen those songs that I've listed and didn't put a clip sample beside them):

*~ "We Worship You Oh Lord" (Youth For Christ)
(click here to listen to sample clip: http://mfile.akamai.com/3171/rm/muze.download.akamai.com/2890/us/usrm/530/380530_1_09.ram?obj=v10329  )

*~ "Lord I Lift Your Name On High"

You can purchase sheet music to several children's / youth choir songs at

http://www.ntimemusic.com

*****************************************

Many of these songs you can request from your local gospel radio station, purchase the albums, or download them from Kazaa (I recommend Kazaalite - it has no pop-up ads, and no spyware).

**************************************
If you need songs for your youth choir (I don't know the ages that compose of your group ), check out albums by these artists:

Mississippi Children's Choir
* "Children of The King"
* "A New Creation"
* "When All Of God's Children Get Together"


Youth For Christ
* "Higher"
* "Love Comes In All Colors"


T.M. Mass Youth Choir

* "Send Your Annointing"
* "He's Been Good"


GMWA Youth Mass Choir

* "I Never Shall Forget"
* "Come Bless The Lord"
* "Lift The Savior Up"
* "Live From Philidelphia"
* "Live From New Orleans 2000"
* "New Orleans 2000" (a different album than the one listed above)
* " Live From Minneapolis"
* "The Best Of GMWA Youth Mass Choir Vol. 1"


Walt Whitman & The Soul Children of Chicago
* "Live From The Opera House"
* "We Are One"
* "Live and Blessed"
* "This Is The Day"
* "Growing Up"
* "Generation X"


National Youth N Praise Mass Choir
* "National Youth N Praise Mass Choir"


Joshua's Troop
* "Joshua's Troop"


Cathedral Children's Choir
(you can buy the cd and sheet music from ntimemusic.com )


Danny Eason & The Abundant Youth Cathedral Crusade Choir
* "A New Beginning" (I think that's the title)


Arizona Youth Mass Choir
* "Eddie James Presents: Arizona Youth Mass Choir"


Tyscot Gospel Kids Presents


Shout Praises Kids Gospel
* "Shout Praises Kids Gospel Vol. 1"
* "Shout Praises Kids Gospel Vol. 2"

Those are a few groups that I know of that have great music with messages that are geared towards children and youth choirs. You could also use songs by Hezekiah Walker, Joe Pace, John P. Kee, and soforth, but make sure that it's appropriate for those ages.
