This song is from my Christian album and is based on these verses: Romans 3:10-12, 1 Kings 19:12, Hebrews 1:1-2, 2 Timothy 3:16,Mark 10:28, Luke 9:23, 2 Corinthians 5:17, John 10:27 Romans 6:18, Romans 8:2 and 1 John 2:1-6. I Gave It All Verse 1
Love came to me As I was I could not go to Him Yet He came to me Verse 2
He spoke to me Gentle words Come follow me today And I’ll set you free Chorus
I gave it all He cleansed me Gave me life again So that I’m free not to sin Verse 3
Now I can hear When He calls His voice I know and I’m sure He’s always near Repeat Chorus
Repeat Verse 3

Sonny (and Daniel),
Beautiful! The production on this is gorgeous. Mix, too! The pads are excellent. The piano nestled in perfectly.
Daniel's vocals are beautiful (harmonies, too).
Excellent write. Cool chord progressions...
One of your best!
Obviously, you are done with this... but for future thought...
The very beginning of the song seems "abrupt" (just slightly). The first notes of the guitar solo are REALLY nice. If you could mute the pad (and drums? maybe) until the 3rd note the guitar plays so they come in "more naturally"??? (or something to that effect...). Not to take away from how nice everything in this is...

Hi Sonny,
great composition. I like the chord progression.
The vocals are awesome, especially the harmonies and the
aah choir. You chose really fitting RTs. Brent is my
favourite anyway.
I enjoyed my several listens a lot.

Sonny,
I tried to listen to this a couple of weeks ago but Soundclick was being uncooperative at the time and I couldn't get it to work properly. Tonight it behaved.
Wow! This is such a beautiful sound.... great chords, great harmony, wonderful vocals. Like J & B, the idea of using biblical verses appealed. I'm also a huge fan of the AABA format. Another top notch effort for the SRP songbook.
Regards,
Noel

A beautiful song. Great production and performance. Brilliant use of the inspirational Biblical verses.
Enjoyed my listen.
Quick fix tip for the abrupt start: Open your master file in any DAW (even Audacity will work well) and fade in the opening. It will smooth the intro.

Sonny,
Loved this one! Mr. Hensley sounds a lot like Josh Groban to me, and he's one of my favorite singers. Very lush, great mix. Loved this one.

Bob

Regards,
Bob Thanks Bob, your comments are very appreciated. It's strange that you would mention that Daniel sounds a lot like Josh Groban for Josh happens to be one of his favorite singers. I personally think that Josh has some of the best sound tracks out there for his kind of music. I took one them (because I liked it so much) and made a Christian song out it. Now I will have to pay royalties to use it (glad to do it). Sonny
