I need to be reminded of where to place my focus. no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:14:58 +0000 1 2 4ccf120e-f759-4591-953f-8e0f9ab42882 00:04:13 no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:13:58 +0000 1 3 1706dc9b-c9a1-4ce1-8c59-94cac5e6875d 00:04:09 I wrote this one year at a Christmas banquet that went long. I ran out of songs I knew how to play, so I wrote it backstage on break. It’s mostly about the ‘aftermath’ and the one gift that keeps on giving. no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:12:58 +0000 1 4 c5eb20fb-284a-4a72-9503-3fda296de29b 00:04:50 no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:11:58 +0000 1 5 099138c2-2be5-441e-8886-c0a1f26a8133 00:03:47 My own composition. Written about a transcendent moment with one of my kids. Whose words mean more than gifts could ever bring. That card is framed and sitting in my office two decades later. no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:10:58 +0000 1 6 b12c4672-72e4-4334-8af2-30576f63b151 00:03:57 This was a staple in our Christmas caroling back when it wasn’t dangerous to go door to door singing songs of Joy and Peace throughout the world. no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:09:58 +0000 1 7 26415954-0f0d-4301-8e64-5a53cecafa10 00:04:36 How could I not record the most recorded song of all time at Christmas? But then nothing speaks to tranquility and peace of soul like this song. Here I ‘fancied it up’ for the sake of the project. But the truth is, it’s best song without music at all. no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:08:58 +0000 1 8 04f247f1-466b-493e-9c16-01328b8dd8d4 00:04:41 I heard Miles Davis do this on trumpet, a reverently sophisticated presentation of the most world changing event ever. I have no idea of his personal convictions about faith in Jesus. But to tell the story of the beginning of salvation in a jazz format has its own conviction. no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:07:58 +0000 1 9 1b74b990-6a7b-40c3-8680-66bed3471bfd 00:03:56 Ever wonder what a Heavenly Host might sound like singing? This is the biggest production piece I’ve ever recorded. Using a one hundred voice choir and a live orchestra, it’s movie soundtrack quality but a little hard to pull off on tour on a humble man’s budget. no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:06:58 +0000 1 10 7ffb1914-a84f-409a-b00c-fe5b3fc6d7e9 00:04:48 This song has a lonely feel to it. Perfect for the lack of fanfare that came with the birth of Christ. Just another day to those who were living unaware. no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:05:58 +0000 1 11 f51a23b6-3269-4974-b5c4-dc0dc724114f 00:03:45 no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:04:58 +0000 1 12 2063b2cb-5c47-4b79-af7d-2928e6a63dc2 00:04:12 no Sat, 11 Nov 2023 02:03:58 +0000 1 13 d28c9d6e-db61-44d1-9ae1-681d9dc50ced 00:03:25 no
