Hi, I would suggest you get a copy of my book "Modern Chord Changes to Favorite Hymns" available on Amazon.com or Barnes & Noble.com.  In it you will find some very intriguing left hand voicings as well as corresponding foot pedal notes for the bass pedal.  The book is published by Outskirts Press of Denver, Colorado and has been featured at the Gospel Music Workshop of America.  You need not be able to read music notation for everything is spelled out for you.  A first of its kind book.  Enjoy and Be Blessed.  Let me know what you think e-mail me at Jayrone@peoplepc.com.

Two things that will help people who have not learned to use you LH well. One you can use larger chords in you RH or you can use smaller chords you just have to play them more often. Also play with your drawbar settings that makes a big difference. Try not to play with all the drawbars pull out all the time.
