Dan,
Love the folk-rock feel of this song... The vocals sound excellent (and Fresh Fire is such a cool name).
Great tracks selection and an awesome mix really top this one off.
Outstanding job!

Well...Dan! Really nice tune, and Fresh Fire sounds fabulous. Whatever you're doing with those vocalists sounds really pleasing to my ears. And your nylon string guitar from the Genos fooled me completely. That's some really skilled action. Anyway...loved it!

Dan, not only are you a fantastic writer of Christian songs you also have mastered the synth vocals. You also have a knack for choosing the perfect backing bands for your songs. You are also a fantastic musician. Loved the lyrics. Loved the song.

Just as I am big fan of firesong, I am quickly becoming a huge fan of Fresh Fire. Hmmm. Bet you have a lot to do with that, Dan. You write consistently good songs. I'm also a big Scott Collingwood fan, and, since I haven't heard that one, I had to listen first. Man, Scott, you are really quite amazing in your ability to interpret any song in such a personal and perfect way. Just brilliant, man. Wow, definitely the best way to experience this, Dan. It's really quite impressive how you seamless can just add lyrics, and heighten the intensity with some great vocals. This is simply great, showing masterful talent. I tell folks I pay tribute to Jesus everyday. I start off drinking water all day, and then at night I change it to wine.

Nice work. This was totally enjoyable. I'll just echo the comments of the previous posters before me.
Good production Good vocal work. Good writing. Good Mix Good Job

We listened to both versions and the feeling of transformation comes through well on both.
Janice said she could just hear her Mama saying, “they ought to perform that beautiful song at the Revival!”
Fresh Fire and the band sound great and the mix is as Gregg Allman would say "it's hittin' the note!"
Enjoyed the update!

Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.
