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 There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site.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
Cousin Gene has written a couple of songs and this is one...it is one of my favorite songs of all time. It is a near perfect match of lyrical content and style. Thanks to Larry Simmons (piano) and Chris Baker (guitar)
Lyrics
Seek first the kingdom and all God's righteousness Seek first the kingdom and your life He will bless Give Him all your guilt and sin and He'll forget your past Seek first the kingdom 'cause nothing else will last Some folks think that money is the only way They store their futures in the bank they want to save it for another day But Jesus said where your treasures are your heart will be there too You better seek first the kingdom and let Him give it back to you You've got to seek first the kingdom and all God's righteousness Seek first the kingdom and your life He will bless Give Him all your guilt and sin and He'll forget your past Seek first the kingdom 'cause nothing else will last In your life there are things you don't understand Seems so empty and alone, stress on every hand But if you want to make it right turn the other way Then seek first the kingdom and start a brand new day Well, I can't promise earthly things or hope of great success You've tried all this world can bring and still there is no unrest But I know a man named Jesus who will turn your life around If you'll just seek the kingdom He'll plant your feet on solid ground You've got to seek first the kingdom and all God's righteousness Seek first the kingdom and your life He will bless Give Him all your guilt and sin and He'll forget your past Seek first the kingdom 'cause nothing else will last Give Him all your guilt and sin and He'll forget your past Seek first the kingdom 'cause nothin'.... absolutly nothin'...nothin' else will last
