The latest recording session found us working on an old song with a somewhat new twist.
All the songs on the project are faithful to the original music. In other words, the melody, tune, etc. are basically the same as the original though the style or instrumentation may be different. Saturday night we recorded an old song called "Are You Faithful?" that features lyrics by Charles Naylor and the music... well this is where the twist comes in. This is the one song on the project that has a different tune than the original.
Naylor wrote the lyrics in 1918 but they are so appropriate for today that we wanted to find a way to get them on this project. To get an idea, here are the words to the second verse:
Look in the Bible, brother,
Then at the way you live:
Can the Lord as He views youHis full approval give?
The song features mostly acoustic guitar and piano and has a real "earthy" sort of feel to it. Looking forward to getting it out so others can hear it as well! The current goal is to have everything done by the end of May/early June time frame so we can have everything ready for Campmeeting.
If you haven't already committed to pray for the project would you consider it? We feel that the Lord is really moving throughout this project and that there is more on the horizon than we can see. If you would like to commit to pray, just fill in the info on the "contact us" tab. We'll send you some specific requests as they come up!
In HIS service!
