I would appreciate any worship music resources that you have. I am in a new(as in just beginning) church. We are about to start up a youth group and I have a heart for leading the worship. Contemporary and Traditional is great.
Any websites or recommended books would be a great help.

worshiptogether.com is great... there is free sheet music and even video workshops with song writers.
worshipmusic.com is a great store to find new worship releases and sample tracks.
PaulBaloche.com is the personal site of Paul Baloche, the writer of Open the Eyes of My Heart. His site has song charts and lyrics on it, as well as amazing instructional DVDs that I highly recommend (I have them all and have passed them along to people in our youth band).
SoulfulProductions.com is a company that makes great instructional DVDs for worship musicians. Their DVDs are more in the contemporary Gospel style and are endorsed by Kirk Franklin and Martha Munizzi to name a few.
ChristianGuitar.org has a whole bunch of free worship chord charts which will help you prepare for rehearsals.
In addition, always go into a rehearsal with a plan. For instance, a rehearsal setlist.
One primary thing you'll do is look for good songs that the youth can use to connect with God. I highly recommend these albums, because the songs are so usable in a youth group setting:
Hillsong United - United We Stand; Look to You; More Than Life; To The Ends of The Earth
Lincoln Brewster - Amazed
David Crowder - Illuminate
Matt Redman - Facedown; Where Angels Fear to Tread
