This is one that the Lord just gave me this week, and I recorded it this morning.

Five Loaves And Two Fishes

https://soundcloud.com/ronniefields/five-loaves-and-two-fishes


Of all the miracles he performed in his day,
one that's remembered, and still talked about today.
As he preached, upon a hillside,
the multitude they came.
But when they left, on that very day,
they would never be the same.

Five loaves and two fishes, there was no other meat,
he blessed it and broke it, everyone did eat.
Over five thousand, were fed on that day,
five loaves and two fishes, was the miracle that day.

My friend, if you're looking for a miracle today,
give your heart to Jesus, and in his name just pray.
Lift your hands toward heaven, and give him praises too,
if you have the faith of a mustard seed,
there's a blessing just for you.

Five loaves and two fishes, there was no other meat,
he blessed it and he broke it, everyone did eat.
Over five thousand, were fed on that day,
five loaves and two fishes, was the miracle that day.
Over five thousand, were fed on that day,
five loaves and two fishes, was the miracle that day.

The perfect backing tracks, great vocal, outstanding lyrics and message, what else could one ask for?

This may be your best to date.

Loved it

Ronnie.
as an ex chorister i must say... nice lyrics/arrangement.
also let me add... useing a church choir in the song i feel would really elevate this song imho.
eg maybe the choruses ? "five loaves etc etc.."
every happiness to you.

Well done, Ronnie. Funny coincidence, I just opened Matt this week, following a two week trek through Isaiah.

What they said - sounds great in my headphones.

And the usual solid write and soulful vocal. Very pretty combination of instruments, excellent mix. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Ronnie,

Really pretty tune . . . soft and soothing. Nice vocal; love that guitar. Cool build on the production—like that cello a lot. Well done!

Wishing you the best for the Holidays,

Ronnie, great song and an excellent production. I sure liked the music you chose, the instruments you chose to play it, and the way you mixed it. The vocal sounds really good on this too. My only nit (a small one at that, and something I do sometimes too) is that the last two lines of the chorus end with the same word, "day". Perhaps with a bit of manipulation another word that rhymes, yet still portrays the meaning and feel could be found, but like I said - that's a very small nit. I think it's a good song.

As a side note, I sure liked the next song in your line-up, "Good Old Country Music". You always get such a good steel sound. What style did you use for the steel for that one?
