Christ centered songs written by Dan Simmons...the best Gospel and inspirational A.I. music on the internet!
"firesong" is the songwriting ministry of Dan Simmons Thanks for stopping by. It's my desire to faithfully share that which has been given to me. This website will be a sampling of recordings that I, along with family and friends, have done over past 45 years. There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site. Special thanks go to my partners in music, my daughter Amber, son Ian and the guys of Single Heart (Gene, Bob, Chris, Marty and Tata) who joined me to sing praises to the Lord down through the years. I also wish to thank those co-writers and artists that have joined with me in developing new music the passed few years to share on this website. I'm now featuring AI (Artificial Intelligence) groups that I've developed to sing some of the songs. I hope it's evident to everyone... that though the melodies and harmonies, styles and singers may change... JESUS has always been and will always be...the Song! ...this music is one simple expression of a very thankful heart. (Dan is a retired firefighter and ordained minister)

Story behind the song
I wrote this song for my daughter Amber . This song moves me beyond my ability to explain. I hope it has the same effect on everyone who hears it.
Lyrics
There’s a river... that is flowing... from the throne room of a King Deep and wide... ever growing... is the well from which it springs Living water...freely given...streaming forth... in vast supply Let’s go down to the river of life There’s a Man down by the river...Who can heal a wounded soul He will touch you and deliver...make you pure...make you whole Beneath the water there’s healing power that can wash our sin away Let’s go down to the river today There’s a river that is flowing from the crown of thorns He wore Down the cross that river’s pouring form the nail scars that He bore Bruised and broken...torn and tattered...His precious blood poured down like rain Let’s go down to that river again There’s a river that is brighter than the sun up in the sky Oh, it shines in crystal splendor just beneath the throne on high Heaven's watered by this fountain that will never run dry Let’s go down to the river of life Let’s go down to the river...the river of life
