It’s the early 1990’s, possibly even the very late 1980’s, but if it is that late, they can’t get in and we’ll have to leave it at the early 1990’s. At the time I was being very conscious of the music played by my sister and my mother. I remember seeing the album cover of […]
Read More Waymaker – Tramaine HawkinsIt wasn’t that long ago before I posted something about getting Marvin’s latest album entitled Alone But Not Alone. I don’t know if we’ll ever read his biography or even autobiography, but this song plays a good part in sharing a bit about himself in that vague kinda way that seeks to connect to others. […]
Read More Alone But Not Alone – Marvin WinansThere is a very real danger of loving music for the effect it has on you and so leaning more towards music power rather than the power of the spirit of the song itself especially as expressed in the truth of the words that make it. I believe in the therapeutic power of music and […]
Read More This Is The Time – Terry MacAlmonI forget. I have to acknowledge that. Due to that independent aspect of my character that needs to have all the answers and be the top dog, it’s not as yet automatic to remember, but there are reminders like this. The issue I forget is that the scripture informs me that that greater is He […]
Read More Greater Is He In Me – The Crabb FamilyWas Elvis even the king of his own household let alone rock and roll? Hey, ask Priscilla, she would know. What I do know is that there can be no denying the impact he made on the world of music as a whole. Something I found bizarre in his promotion of a music of rebellion […]
Read More Elvis Sings Gospel – Amazing GraceSo regular readers of this blog will know that I am a keen admirer of the singing talents of Marvin Winans. Lately our loving heavenly Father opened up the windows of heaven and poured out a blessing for which I could only return uplifted hands and shouts of adoration to the ever generous Father and […]
Read More I Still Believe – Marvin WinansThere are certain phases in life that you look back on fondly for one reason or the other. One of those phases for me was back just on the cusp of finishing my A-levels and going onto university. Around that time I was thinking I was establishing my independence (ha, little did I know), and […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Show Up – John P KeeThis is one of the most profound pieces of gospel music I’ve come across. The honesty before God of where you are in your relationship with Him and your ongoing need for Him, is truly something that I relate all too well and perhaps all too often. It’s one of the reasons I have so […]
Read More DMCD Songs – My Eyes Are Dry – Keith GreenOne of my favourite hymns is called Sweet Will of God. It hold very special memories for me including what I regard as my first personal experience of the charismatic. I like the writer’s desire to see self lost in God, the whole identity no longer about self-glorification, but now focussed on godly character emerging […]
Read More Lost Inside Of You – Jon Gibson & Crystal LewisYou ever have a favourite tune? You know you’re going about your daily chores and then that song pops in the head and it doesn’t leave for the best part of an hour, then you get home and slap it on the sound system of choice and because you like it that much it’s on […]
