DESCENDANTS OF ASAPH Asaph was the first and chief musician in the early days before the temple was built in Jerusalem. By all accounts (1Chron 16v5) he was a percussionist and drummer and together with Heman and Jeduthun formed the first worship band to accompany the choir in praise and worship of God He wrote a number of psalm lyrics under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. His lyrics are very down to earth and he likes to say things exactly as they are! 'Descendants of Asaph' follow in his tradition and is a virtual band dedicated to making music and song unto the Lord and presenting His challenge to the world today through parables in music.

Story behind the song
Inspired by Psalm 137
Lyrics
Psalm 137 My Highest Joy By the rivers of Babylon We sat and wept When we remembered Zion We choked on our regrets By the rivers of Babylon Babylon We hung up our guitars 'For Sale' In a Babylonian streeet bazaar If I forget you, Jerusalem or let another song,another song my voice and skills employ Should I forget you, Jerusalem or place another love, another love above my highest joy or place another love, another love above my highest joy In the gardens of Babylon We hung our heads and cried How can wee sing the Lord's song with this emptiness inside In the gardens of Babylon Babylon How can we sing the 'Song of the Lord' While in this pagan land, this pagan land This pagan land If I forget you, Jerusalem or let another song,another song my voice and skills employ Should I forget you, Jerusalem or place another love, another love above my highest joy or place another love, another love above my highest joy
