4 Guys Singin' Gospel

We have a small church in Rochester, Michigan, where we've attended for about 21 years.  Over that time, I've sung with the praise team and played hand percussion in the band.  Last year, I became director of our small choir.  I also sing with some other men as the Faith Gospel Quartet.  We're just 4 guys who got together a few years ago because we all enjoy singing.  We rehearse about once a month and plan to sing in our church every couple of months or so.  This isn't the 'big time', but we do enjoy it, and the congregation seems to appreciate the music.

Over the past 30 years, I've been able to write a few songs that I thought maybe were pretty good.  They just come once in a while from the Lord.  When I sit down to write a song myself, it seldom turns out; but when the right inspiration comes, the song is usually complete in a short time.  Last year I wrote a song about the wonder of God's love.  You know I try to tie my posts into the title of my blog, "I Am One, etc".  The basic concept of this song is that, while we know that Jesus gave His life for the world, His sacrifice takes on greater significance when I think that He did it for me -- little, old, insignificant me.  But He did!  And He did the same for you!  It's truly a wonderment.

Anyway, each time I tell my family (who all live across the country now) that we just sang in church, they say: I hope you recorded it so we can hear it.  Well this time I did.  So here's a little number called "Don't Make Sense."  I hope you enjoy it, and may God bless you for listening.
