Can someone explain how to sing in a lower octave?
When I'm singing songs from spotify or the radio, I can almost always match the pitch and sing it well. The second I go to a church service, half of the notes are too high for me to sing. I don't know how to do anything but match pitch, and whenever I try to sing in a different octave it sounds horrible, I'm obviously doing it wrong. I have a higher voice (male), but the top of my range isn't that far above what I feel is the middle range for me.

It has to come naturally, it's very easy. If you have to sing a C5 for example, you sing a C4 instead, I don't know how to describe it. You sing lower but exactly the same notes, just different octave. The key is the same.

If you have a choir director, have him/her explain relative pitch. More useful in a choir than perfect pitch. And some people can be taught it. Maybe you can fatten up the song with harmony. It is too hard to help you, without hearing and seeing you.
you need one on one instruction. You may be trying to sing a note that is out of your range.
Perfect pitch, can drive some people nuts in a choir. They hear these people singing off pitch, and that can be very distracting. I have never seen an adult taught perfect pitch.
