A Bit About The Song… Here I Stand As some of you know, we wrote a book not too long ago called “Here I Stand.” We wanted to share the truth that the Bible and the Bible only should be the standard of the true Christian faith, not traditions or man’s contradicting explanation of what God has plainly said. We were so inspired by the true-life stories of so many we read about and interviewed we compiled their testimonies into a true-to-life story about standing for the truth, no matter what the co...

A Bit About The Song… King of Kings “And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse, and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness, he doth judge and makes war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine li...

A Bit About The Song… What is Man Psalms 8:4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? Psalms 144:3 Lord, what is man, that thou takest knowledge of him! or the son of man, that thou makest account of him! Finite beings created a little lower than the angels, one of the youngest of all of the created being so God’s enormous universe filled with all of his children. The only planet that fell. The only planet that God became as his creation incarnate an...

A Bit About The Song… WenshaliCGsus The hymn portion of this beautiful haunting amalgamation of traditional melody and original music composed by Nicholas Mazzio is attributed to an anonymous source around the beginning of the 1800s. Some say it may have been written by American Baptist Minister John Leland. But the citation has gone unconfirmed, and it is not similar to the others attributed to him. One thing is certain, the longing for our heavenly home is apparent in the lyric. It is a rousin...

A Bit About The Song… Teach Us To Pray “And it came to pass, that, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said unto Him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples. And He said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead u...

A Bit About The Song… Have Mercy There is little to compare with that terrible sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach when you know that you have done wrong, that the consequences of your actions are irreparable, and that others are going to suffer immeasurable loss and damage because of your willful or accidental indiscretion. In that fateful moment when the realization that the timeline of your life and others’ lives will be forever changed because of your actions is indelibly etched into ...

A Bit About The Song… Man of Sin When Paul wrote his second letter to the church in Thessalonica it was in a very dangerous time for the young church. Persecution against the new Christian believers following the risen Christ was strong. They were in hiding a great deal. They were the underground church, hunted and killed freely. In his second letter to the Corinthians, Paul describes the time In which they were living like this: “We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perp...

A Bit About The Song… The Blessing After the Lord had given His wonderful law to the children that He loved through His faithful servant Moses, He asked Moses to give this special blessing to His priests Aaron and Aaron’s sons to speak over all of the children of Israel, not only on the mountain but throughout all generations for all who would become Israel through accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior and as their heritage forever. This is the blessing, the intent of our God regarding His pe...

A Bit About The Song… The Message Original words and music by The Rain. This is a single track from the album “Shelter in the Storm” The story behind the album: Our love of complex, meaningful words led us to collect old hymnals filled with the depths of poetic creativity from some of the most empathetic minds in history. With today’s “dumbing down” of words and meaning, we longed to have an avenue of preserving the beauty and depths of the messages contained in some of our old, favorite hymns, ...
