00:01 Thousands of songs have been written
00:02 about the most important story in the history of mankind. 00:06 The sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross 00:09 has inspired millions to give Him their hearts. 00:13 Now we invite you to join us as we lift up Jesus Christ 00:17 on this special 3ABN presentation: 00:22 with 00:52 And now: Calvary: Love Found A Way. 03:18 Amen! Praise the Lord! 03:20 Beautiful! Thank you so much. 03:23 Beautiful! I'm going to ask Lanny Wolfe to come up. 03:26 Come up here just a second a little farther. 03:28 Lanny, you wrote this song. It's a beautiful song! 03:31 And the folks out here... you get to see better than we do 03:35 some of the LED lights and some of the different 03:38 pictures they'll put up and video that go along 03:41 with some of these songs. And I want to thank our crew 03:44 for doing an incredible job on that. 03:46 But tell us a little bit just quickly about this song. 03:49 What inspired you to write it? 03:52 This is a lullaby Mary is singing to the Lamb. 03:56 In a stable she's holding the Lamb of God. 03:59 And so Mary is saying: "Rest, tiny hands; 04:02 rest tiny heart; rest tiny eyes. " 04:05 And so she goes through all these items 04:08 basically singing a lullaby to the precious Lamb of God. 04:11 It's that simple. All right. 04:13 Melody. 10:06 Beautiful! 10:09 I'm going to ask Lanny to walk back up again. 10:12 We're getting ready to do a song called It Was Love. 10:14 And you remember about a year and a half or so ago 10:17 that we did a project called Hallelujah! We're Home At Last! 10:21 And on that project Yvonne and I wrote a song 10:25 and I said: "All of these songs were on the second coming 10:28 but this is all on Calvary. " 10:31 So the second coming, we decided to look from 10:34 heaven's perspective what would be happening 10:37 instead of just as humans looking up 10:40 what happens in heaven. So when Jesus stands up 10:44 heaven is changed forevermore. 10:45 So in this project I said: "We've got a lot of songs 10:48 about the cross and Christ and Calvary, 10:51 but what about something from heaven's perspective? " 10:54 So I began to talk to Lanny and I said: "You know, I wonder: 10:58 did angels question God's master plan when man fell from grace? 11:02 Could redemption be bought or would the price be too great? " 11:06 Just kind of led him into it from there. 11:08 He took it - and your daughter, you might tell us about it - 11:12 and came up with a finished song. 11:14 So I really can't take much credit for this. 11:16 We give all credit to God but in the fleshly sense 11:19 I'm honest, Lanny, that you and your daughter wrote most of this 11:23 but thanks for letting me have a little part in it. 11:26 Beautiful song! Thank you, Danny. The important thing 11:29 in this song is that Danny planted the seed 11:33 because without the question "Did angels question? " 11:36 then the song... the tree doesn't grow. 11:39 So Danny gave us the seed, and then my daughter, 11:42 Lanna-Marie, who is just a wonderful song writer, 11:45 and I took the seed and watered the seed. 11:50 And basically from the first two or three lines 11:53 we finished the song. Basically, when this happens 11:55 the best way I co-write is: "Give me what you have 11:58 and leave me alone. " Get out of his way! 12:01 Get out of my way and let me finish the song. 12:03 And... we came back together on the song called It Was Love. 12:10 All right. Ladye Love, can you help me with this? 17:26 Amen! Praise the Lord! Thank you, Ladye. 17:31 The next song we're going to do is entitled, we entitled it 17:35 Gethsemane. 17:36 And were were rushing to get a lot of songs done 17:39 and try to write some new ones. 17:41 And the night before we went down to Nashville 17:44 to track the songs I was sitting with my guitar 17:47 and this little tune came to me. 17:50 And the words just seemed like they just literally flowed. 17:53 And it said: "He suffered Gethsemane 17:57 through blood, sweat, and tears. " 18:00 And I said: "Wow! That's strong! " 18:03 "Each drop of blood He shed bought me a million years. 18:07 God's crowning sacrifice... " 18:09 I said: "Man, this is not coming from me. " 18:13 Some of you are song writers. You ever write a song 18:15 or maybe write poems? I know you guys do. 18:17 Sometimes you know when you really work at it 18:19 then other times when it seems like God just throws it on you. 18:25 Says: "Here, take it... what are you going to do with it? " 18:27 Well, I'm very limited as a song writer and as a musician. 18:31 But I said: "Man, that song is so powerful! " 18:33 "The spotless Lamb of God who now is the great I AM. " 18:37 And I said: "That is a powerful chorus. " 18:40 Reggie called me... talking about, the next morning 18:42 and I sang it to him. I had my guitar, and he said: 18:45 "Danny, you've got to put that on the project. " 18:47 I said: "Reggie, I don't have a chorus. " 18:48 "I don't have... I just have the music to the chorus 18:51 and the words. I don't have any verses. " 18:53 "Think about it; pray about it. The Lord will give it to you. " 18:56 So I was talking to my brother Kenny. 18:59 I said: "The Lord gave me this. " He said: "Man, you've 19:03 got to do this! " Talking to Yvonne Lewis later. 19:06 Next morning we were going to Nashville 19:08 I talked to these people and they said: 19:10 "I can't get that song out of my mind. 19:12 You need to finish that song and do it on the project. " 19:14 So I went to the airport to pick up in Nashville Lanny Wolfe. 19:17 I said: "Lanny, the Lord gave me this little chorus... " 19:20 And that's how you do if you think somebody, without asking 19:23 them to co-write, a guy like him, you don't 19:26 just ask him to co-write so you try to be... 19:28 And he knew exactly what I was doing, but I said: 19:30 "Lanny, the Lord gave me this little chorus. " 19:33 And this is evening by this time. We'd done 19:35 one day of tracking. And the next morning we went to 19:39 breakfast. Lanny said: "Danny, I can't get that song 19:41 out of my mind. You want me to write the verses to it? " 19:44 I said: "Absolutely! " 19:46 So literally that evening he put together - penned - 19:50 some of the most beautiful words I've ever heard 19:52 to the song... the first verse, the last verse. 19:55 And we asked Reggie to sing it. 19:57 It's absolutely... I cry when I hear it. 20:00 I know it's not me, it's not Lanny. 20:02 This: we do give God the credit for this. 20:04 But Gethsemane... Reggie. 26:05 Thank you... thank you, Reggie. 26:08 Wow! Praise the Lord! 26:10 God is good, isn't He? Amen! 26:12 Did you see some of the pictures behind to give a little... 26:16 Jesus. We can't imagine. It says He sweat great drops of blood. 26:21 But each drop of blood bought us a million years 26:24 and more. This love... we'll never understand it. 26:28 About a year and a half or two years ago 26:30 I had written... We were getting ready to do another project 26:33 and I was down with Lari Goss, a great friend 26:36 and wonderful wonderful man. He's now resting in Jesus. 26:39 And I was at his place and I said: "There's a song that... " 26:43 We needed one more song. I said: "I just wrote a little, 26:45 a little song and it says, I entitled it Calvary Says 26:49 Love To Me. And I played it for him on the guitar. 26:52 He said: "Danny, we've got to do this on the project. " 26:54 So as we come to this project: songs on Calvary. 26:58 And that's what Calvary says to us. 27:01 Think about it. It says love. 27:03 You know, the cross of itself is nothing. 27:05 I can go out and make a cross. 27:07 We can do all kinds of things. 27:08 But Jesus shed blood on that cross 27:11 is what changed the whole world. 27:13 When we think about it, we think about the cross of Calvary. 27:17 We're going to have Ladye Love come and sing 27:19 Calvary Says Love To Me. 31:53 Thank you. Beautiful! 31:56 Absolutely. You know, what's amazing to me is 31:59 when God has... Everybody has different gifts. 32:03 And I was sitting there thinking about almost every note 32:06 that you heard of all those instruments was in her mind 32:10 and Lari's mind. And then you add people like Gordon 32:14 on there and Tim Parton, then get these singers on here 32:18 and I don't think that God's people have to take a back seat 32:21 to the world, do you? No! 32:23 And I'm so thankful that each and every one of these folk 32:26 have chosen to use their gifts and their talents 32:29 and abilities for God's work. 32:32 And tonight the question would be: what about you? 32:35 What about me? 32:37 As we're here singing, and I'm enjoying being able to sing 32:40 with such great singers and musicians, 32:42 but most importantly is what does Calvary mean to us? 32:45 What does Calvary say to us? 32:47 Does Calvary say love to us? 32:49 You see, without a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ 32:53 we're going nowhere. 32:54 Literally, there's no life, there's no hope 32:58 without the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ 33:01 on the cross of Calvary. I'm so thankful that 33:04 He's a God of mercy. 33:06 That He's a God of patience. 33:08 That He doesn't mind taking the clay and re-molding it 33:12 from time to time. 33:13 But He'll only do that if we come to Him and confess our sins 33:17 "Lord, I'm a sinner. " 33:20 He says if we do that He is faithful and just 33:23 to forgive us from our sins and cleanse us from some 33:25 of our unrighteousness. ALL! Oh, ya'll are still awake? 33:28 All right. All... all unrighteousness. 33:32 Isn't that amazing? 33:33 That we as frail human agents 33:36 that God would even not destroy all of us. 33:40 But He didn't. His love for us is beyond comprehension. 33:45 So... as great a writer as Lanny Wolfe is 33:48 when he gets to heaven he's going to have to sit in the back 33:51 corner and say: "I thought I was a pretty good song writer 33:53 but I didn't know half the story. I didn't know 33:57 a tenth of the story. " Because we won't know. 33:59 The Bible says: "Now we see through a glass darkly 34:02 but then face to face. " 34:06 Isn't that wonderful? 34:07 I praise God for His plan of salvation. 34:12 Amen! It's very simple. 34:14 Maybe the greatest song ever written 34:17 Jesus loves me, this I know 34:20 for the Bible tells me so. 34:23 Right? Little ones to Him belong, 34:25 they are weak but HE is strong. 34:27 Yes Jesus loves me; 34:29 yes Jesus loves me. Do you love Jesus tonight? 34:32 Amen! I don't care what your problem is 34:35 Jesus is coming back for a purified bride 34:37 and a purified church. 34:39 And as I travel around I see ya'll are just like me. 34:42 You've got a lot of problems in your life. 34:44 Right? And I don't think the reason Jesus is not here yet 34:48 is not because we're waiting on Him. 34:50 He's waiting on us. 34:52 He's waiting on His people to perfect His character 34:55 within our lives so that He can come back 34:57 for a purified bride... a purified church. 35:00 And when we get to that point He says: "I, if I be lifted up 35:03 from this earth will draw some folk to Me. " 35:06 All! You're still awake; all right! 35:09 "Draw all men unto Me. " 35:11 So I'm so thankful tonight to have this opportunity 35:15 to be here and minister music 35:19 that talks about Jesus. Right? The cross... 35:22 the sanctuary. To give the world a last-day message 35:27 because I believe we're living in the end times, don't you? 35:29 Amen! We have present truth to give to a lost and dying world. 35:33 If we don't do it, who will? 35:35 I don't want to stand before Jesus and Him say 35:38 "Why didn't you do? You had the truth, but you 35:40 didn't tell anybody. " I was over in London the other day 35:45 and somebody there said to me: "You know what? 35:47 This is not like anywhere else in the world. 35:50 London is impossible to reach people. 35:53 People don't want the truth; they're not willing to change. " 35:57 And I said: "Well then why didn't Jesus say in 35:59 Matthew 28:18-20 "Go ye into all the world except London? " 36:03 See? He didn't say that, did He? 36:06 He said: "Go ye into all the world. " 36:08 And I said: "I can tell you for a fact 36:10 that people in London are looking for truth 36:13 and they are looking for a change. " There are 30,000 36:18 preachers throughout the great city of London 36:21 but there are over 80,000 registered witches. 36:24 There is every kind of cult you can think of: the New Age. 36:28 There's all kinds of false religions who do not 36:31 give honor and glory to the Lord Jesus Christ and to God 36:35 and they're growing by the millions. 36:37 The reason I believe they're not accepting truth - 36:41 not only London... here: West Frankfort, Illinois, 36:43 whether you're from Alabama, Tennessee, Africa... 36:46 I don't care where you're from - 36:47 is because we have been ashamed of the gospel of Christ. 36:50 We should be so excited that everybody we see 36:54 we want to tell them about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. 36:57 Am I right? Amen! I'm starting to get excited 37:00 so I'm not a preacher. Not a son of a preacher. 37:02 I'm going to back up, but we're going to sing a little bit 37:05 about heaven right now. 37:06 Heaven came down and what happened? 37:08 Glory filled our soul. All right. 37:10 Quartet? OK. All right. 37:14 I'll try. I don't have much voice left 37:16 but we'll do it. 40:39 Amen! Yeah! Amen! 40:41 Thank you. Thank you guys. Beautiful! 40:46 I want to say a word about Reggie Smith. 40:49 Reggie... I called Reggie to say: "Reggie, would you 40:52 produce this project? " If you don't know what 40:54 a producer does you can ask Ladye Love. 40:57 He spends... If you have a studio - a music studio 41:02 in your attic - they call it their attic - 41:04 a nice little upstairs. But if you have one, 41:07 you spend about several months in the studio 41:10 so she and Bret didn't get to see him very much 41:13 unless they went upstairs in the studio. 41:15 But Reggie literally pro- duced, put everything together. 41:18 Worked with Kris, Gordon... Larry... everybody together 41:23 and with the choir... putting all the choir. 41:26 Arranging. He literally arranged all the parts 41:28 that we're doing. So Reggie, thank you so much 41:32 for the literally hundreds of hours and months 41:34 that you have put into this project. 41:39 Our next song is Precious Blood. Lanny, 41:42 come and tell us about this. You wrote this song. 41:46 Paul talks about a thorn in his flesh. 41:49 Well for many years of my life a thorn in my flesh 41:52 was cellulitis. Some of you know what that is? 41:55 I don't know what it is; I just know I would get it. 41:58 And when I would get it, it would, my ankle would hurt 42:02 and it would get red, and I couldn't even walk to the car 42:05 to go to the hospital. And then I'd be in the hospital 42:07 for a week and pay $10,000 and come home... 42:10 and then work to pay off the hospital bill. 42:12 So that's what cellulitis was. 42:14 I was on a chorale tour. We were in Cincinnati, Ohio. 42:17 I would never know when this was going to happen. 42:19 It just happened. And so we were there 42:21 and it happened in the middle of a service. I had 50 young people 42:25 on a chorale tour, and I thought: "God, I don't know 42:28 if I can make it through this service. 42:29 Help me get through this service. " So at the end of the 42:32 service I turned the chorale... we had more tour dates... 42:34 so I turned it over to somebody to go on with the choir 42:38 to the next city. I said: "Take me to the emergency room " 42:41 and they did. And so they put me in a room and they started doing 42:47 all the stuff they do. And the first thing they do 42:49 is take your blood. Well, I've had my blood taken many 42:52 times. You have, too. But it was what I call 42:56 as a song writer "the moment of truth. " 43:00 It was THIS time, when they were taking my blood, 43:04 Bro. Murray... THIS TIME I got it. 43:10 Without blood, none of the rest of this works. 43:14 All right. It doesn't matter how beautiful your body is. 43:17 It doesn't matter how much money you've got. 43:19 If the blood is not there, nothing's there. 43:23 And so at that moment of truth 43:25 God impressed me that for hundreds of years 43:28 lambs were brought to offer for sacrifice for sins. 43:34 But Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God - Amen! - 43:38 All right - He went to the cross and He said - come on: 43:41 "I will go and I will shed once and for all. " 43:45 All right. "You don't need to bring any more lambs. 43:48 I am The Lamb... I am the Lamb of God. " That's right! 43:51 Once and for all He drank the bitter cup 43:54 and He took the stripes on His back for our healing. 43:59 And so Jesus Christ heals. He heals today! 44:04 You need to be healed? He took the stripes 44:07 on His back so we could be healed. 44:09 And so this song came in a hospital room 44:12 in Cincinnati, Ohio: Precious Blood. 44:15 Melody. 48:31 Amen! Amen! Praise the Lord! 48:41 Wow! I don't know about you all but I'm getting those great big 48:44 old chill bumps all over me. I'm going to call them 48:47 Holy Spirit bumps, all right? 'Cause it's sure not cold 48:50 in here. But I feel the anointing of the Holy Spirit. 48:53 Is anybody with me on this tonight? 48:56 Because we're singing about the only thing that really matters 48:59 in life, right? 'Cause life itself... the Life Giver. 49:03 We're bringing honor and glory and praise to Him tonight. 49:08 Reggie. We were at your house visiting... 49:11 Reggie went to the piano and said: "I think I've got a song. 49:16 that might work on the project. " 49:19 And it worked. A beautiful song. Tell us 49:22 about this song. Well, this is an old hymn 49:25 and... just a different arrangement. With 49:27 a different arrangement... a little twist to it. 49:29 At The Cross. You know that hymn, right? 49:32 And I didn't know if it would, you know, fit for the project. 49:35 You know you want to tie everything together nicely. 49:37 And I was a little scared to play it for Danny, honestly. 49:40 I was a little nervous but I said: "Well I was just working 49:42 on this little hymn. " And Yvonne was sitting there. 49:45 So I started playing along 49:47 and Yvonne said: "Um-hmm... yes. 49:50 Yes, yes, yes... it's in! " 49:55 So that made the cut. So it's a beautiful, beautiful... 49:58 old lyric but a good song. So... thank you. 54:33 All right. I'm going to ask Lanny Wolfe and Melody 54:36 to come up. I have to tell you a really short story. 54:41 I don't have much voice left 54:43 but I've got enough to tell THIS story. 54:46 I mean, we've gotta talk about something tonight, right? OK. 54:50 Another idea came to me. I'm going to let you do this. 54:53 No, no, no. Another idea came to me about a song 54:57 and I said... Started talking about it. I told Lanny, 55:01 I said: "I've got this, I think it's a great idea for a song! " 55:04 He said: "Danny, that's a baby that needs to be birthed... 55:07 needs to be born. " 55:09 Hung the worlds in space... I said: "Hung the worlds in 55:11 space was the One who hung on the cross in our place. " 55:14 Now... That hit me: that's powerful. I said: 55:17 "Now what if we could write, Joy, what if we could write 55:19 all the parallels like that? " 55:21 Something from heaven to earth. 55:23 Lanny said: "Oh... that's wonderful! " 55:25 So we told Melody about it. Melody came up with the first 55:28 line or two and then Lanny came up with some more. 55:32 Pretty soon I saw the three-way e- mails were going to two-way 55:37 e- mails... and my name was left out. 55:41 My name was left out. 55:43 And I said: "Now wait a minute! I thought I had the baby 55:46 that was supposed to be born. " 55:47 And so now all of a sudden things got very quiet. 55:52 You know what that's like? Like, I'd look at my e-mail: 55:54 "Now surely they'll... No... nothing here today. " 55:58 So anyway, but I'm really glad. 56:01 I'm really glad. I love teasing Melody about this. 56:03 Now you know Lanny's in charge. 56:05 So blame Lanny? Hear what he says... Now wait just a minute! 56:09 God woke me up in the middle of the night 56:12 with a chorus that was in an Easter musical... my first 56:17 Easter musical... called Love Found A Way. 56:19 And I thought it was a chorus because at the time it was. 56:23 It had 3 lines and then it repeated the third line. 56:27 It really wasn't a full- fledged "legit" chorus. 56:30 God woke me up in the middle of the night 56:32 and reminded me that it wasn't a real chorus... 56:35 to make it a chorus. So I called Danny and Melody 56:38 and I said: "I've got the glue for this song. " 56:43 And that was the moment when your line almost went dead. 56:46 When he said "Danny... you're out. " 56:50 But what I'm going to try to do is sing on it anyway. 56:53 Right? I was a part of it. But honestly, 56:56 it is such a beautiful song and Lanny said: 56:59 "It'll just be birthed at another time. " 57:01 The idea that I had. So I'm going to hold you to that, 57:04 OK? But thank you, Melody, for your support in this 57:07 and the words that you gave - thank you - and working together 57:09 with Lanny. Beautiful song, and we're actually entitling 57:13 this whole project Calvary: Love Found A Way. 01:01:58 Amen! 01:02:02 Love found a way. Aren't you glad? 01:02:04 Amen! I'm thankful. Without that there's nothing, folks. 01:02:07 Love found a way. Melody, Lanny, thank you so much. 01:02:11 We're going to have Reggie and Ladye come up. 01:02:13 Another beautiful song. This was written by? Dottie Rambo. 01:02:17 Dottie Rambo. The wonderful Dottie Rambo, yes. 01:02:19 Beautiful song. Ladye Love, you going to sing with him? 01:02:22 I Will Glory In The Cross is the name of this one. 01:02:25 And Danny you know, when we... to do the arrangement and 01:02:28 we all got together in Kris's room and we started 01:02:31 trying to figure out how... It was fun. Oh, you kidding me? 01:02:34 She's magnificent, she's amazing. 01:02:36 And when you called me, Danny, to produce this thing 01:02:38 you didn't tell... I told everybody no twice. 01:02:40 I told you no twice. You did! Because our dear friend 01:02:44 and the most wonderful producer that we ever knew 01:02:48 was Lari Goss. He produced our last Hallelujah! 01:02:50 And so there was just no way - 01:02:53 me - I could follow up anything like that. 01:02:56 Are you kidding me? Really? Lari Goss? 01:02:58 But you know what? I said: "If we can build a great team - 01:03:01 a great team - then we can get through this. " Absolutely! 01:03:04 Of course we started with the magnificent orchestrator 01:03:07 over there, and then Larry obviously was there too 01:03:10 helping write some, and then great musicians and everything. 01:03:14 And you know, we got to thinking about this song. 01:03:15 We said: "How do we treat this because it's been recorded 01:03:17 many many times? " Larnelle Harris did a wonderful 01:03:19 arrangement of this song... an incredible arrangement. 01:03:22 And we started thinking: "How would... " I started thinking: 01:03:25 "How would maybe Miss Dottie have written this song? " 01:03:29 And she... I think she's from Kentucky originally. 01:03:32 Is that right? Kentucky. So she was a country girl 01:03:35 I think, and she played a guitar... 01:03:37 just kind of simple chords guitar. 01:03:39 And I don't think she would have played all these fancy 01:03:41 chords all over the world, you know. 01:03:43 She'd have played just straight... straight ahead. 01:03:46 And so we kind of put a Celtic - OK - feeling to it. 01:03:49 Celtic-Kentucky feeling to it. OK. 01:03:51 So that's what we came to. Yeah, that's right. 01:08:44 Beautiful! I will glory in the cross. 01:08:48 I also want to thank E.T. Everett sitting down front 01:08:50 right here. Amen! Amen! Some of the folks, you might not 01:08:53 be able see her on camera too much but what an incredible job! 01:08:57 She's our sound center manager. Incredible musician. 01:09:01 Literally arranger, singer; and she's worked countless hours. 01:09:06 Bobby Bradley... chief engineer, sound engineer. 01:09:09 Incredible. He is always behind the scenes. 01:09:12 And our whole 3ABN crew here for what they're doing... 01:09:15 it's so neat. In fact, I can say after thirty-one years 01:09:18 it's fun working together. Isn't it, ET? 01:09:21 It's still fun after all these years when you literally 01:09:25 know that you're doing some- thing for the Lord Jesus Christ 01:09:28 and you're able to do it with folk who have the same likes... 01:09:31 the same desires and same mission and motives 01:09:36 that you do, and that's to ful- fill the great Gospel Commission 01:09:40 "Go ye into all the world. " 01:09:41 Tell the people about the Lord Jesus Christ 01:09:44 and Him crucified... giving present truth 01:09:47 to a lost and dying world. 01:09:49 Now we're going to do a medley. 01:09:50 I think Reggie's going to go down now and direct, right? 01:09:53 Help direct. So we're going to do... 01:09:55 Thank you, E.T. You've been doing a great job... 01:09:57 for all that you do. Now we're going to do a hymn medley. 01:10:00 When you know it, some of the songs you hear it, 01:10:02 give us a little bit. C.A. is going to come out 01:10:05 and John and then maybe on some of the choruses 01:10:07 you join with us. 01:15:59 You know what? You all sound really good out there. 01:16:03 Thank you for singing. It's really nice 01:16:05 when we sing to hear you all singing back on songs 01:16:08 that you know. The next song is a song that 01:16:11 Reggie and Ladye and maybe Marty... I'm not sure 01:16:15 who all wrote on this song. But come up and 01:16:18 tell us about it and sing it for us. 01:16:21 It's entitled I'll Never Know. 01:16:26 Danny, I think we're just going to sing it and let it 01:16:28 speak for itself. All right. 01:16:31 But Marty did a great job, right? But Marty, honestly 01:16:34 wrote some music, and I had a kind of a hook in my mind. 01:16:38 You know the hook? You've got to come up with the hook, right, 01:16:40 for the song? Had written the music and I just 01:16:43 was not pleased at all with what was going on with the lyric. 01:16:46 I was just not pleased with it. As a matter of fact, 01:16:48 the only reason it got brought back was because Danny 01:16:51 brought it back because I had already thrown it on the cutting 01:16:53 floor. It wasn't going to make the cut. 01:16:54 But anyway... And then Marty is amazing 01:16:57 and so he wrote a great lyric to it. So... here we are. 01:20:27 Amen! Thank you! Beautiful! Beautiful! 01:20:33 Our last song on this project... we saved it 01:20:38 last for a reason. 01:20:41 It's probably one of the most worshipful songs. 01:20:44 When you listen to it you can't hardly help 01:20:47 but get in the spirit of worship of our Creator God. 01:20:50 Lanny wrote it, and I can actually say this without 01:20:53 trying to be too funny... but he co-wrote it with Beethoven, 01:20:56 wasn't it? In other words he borrowed - we'll use the word 01:21:01 borrowed - some of Beethoven's music 01:21:04 and added his own Lanny Wolfe. 01:21:06 But what an incredible song! And we were able to get 01:21:10 the Aeolians from Oakwood University 01:21:12 so you'll hear them singing with the choir here. 01:21:15 Absolutely incredible young people. 01:21:18 Love Jesus... talent that's off the charts. 01:21:21 And we're so thankful for them 01:21:23 and their leadership in being able to come to the studio 01:21:26 and help Yvonne Lewis. Yvonne's going to be singing 01:21:29 the lead part. Absolutely beautiful song! Thank you, Lanny 01:21:32 for this song, and Praise His Holy Name. |
