Alternative/Electronica ('80s) CCM Recorded with a Yamaha MT100 4-track tape recorder, an acoustic 12 string guitar (on a Radio Shak mic), a cheap Casio sampling keyboard (intro) and a practice electric guitar acting as bass. Summer of '88.
This "band page" is specifically for an album I assembled in 1994. The last several recordings are from 4-track tape in the '80s (summer of '88, mostly) and the rest are digitally recorded in the very early '90s. I thought this album and most of the songs in it were lost forever, and stumbled across it recently while looking through some old CDs! One track was withheld, because it is a "remix" of an existing worship song. Many of the songs on this page are "cut short" by SoundClick due to file size, but all the lyrics are included anyway. These are all old (rough) demos, but if there is interest, I could offer individual tracks for sale and make this a "VIP" site, so the tracks could be offered at full-length.

Story behind the song
Worship song defining the 3 persons of God in the Trinity, with an added stanza for the "Bride". This controversial stanza regarding the Bride would likely be left out of any final version of this song. (I wrote this song when I was in High School, give me a break. :) ) This song was part of an album CD I put together in 1994, including several tracks from the late '80s, that were thought to have been lost forever when the hard drive they were all on crashed. Recently a single, scratched up CD containing the entire album was discovered at the bottom of a box full of other CDs.
