An old song from 15 years ago. The miracle of the ages.

Jesus is Risen

Just because it's resurrection Sunday. We have hope and faith because of this.

Enjoy

Happy Easter, Herb. Great start to the day. Excellent lyrics tell the story, and a passionate vocal delivers them. Cool band too. I like the modulation --it's literally uplifting. Inspirational!!


Enjoy whatever happens!

Herb, it’s Easter Monday morning, and your work is a reminder that what happened on that day changed things for all time.

On the.musical side—realizing that this has been ‘in the can’ for a long time—I’d have started the first verse with a simple piano solo backing, then swung into more of the full ensemble. Sort of building up the sound wall as it moves along.

None the less, timeless message…thanks for “resurrecting” it for this special season!

Herb,

Very spiritual and timely post. Nice production work on this . . . falls easy on the ears. Stellar write to boot. The country feel this has gives it a distinct touch. I think I would have liked a little bit of harmony on the chorus (or BGVs of some sort), particularly at least on the later chorus, but that’s an artistic choice.

Well done!

I hope you have a good Easter Herb!
An excellent song that really tells of the events that happened back then.
Everything is perfect
Loved it

Herb, really nice song, and super vocals. I'm guessing those are (mostly?) BiaB instruments. They sound great regardless. Like the modulation and the switching out of instruments. A song this long really needs that kind of variety and dynamic flow to create interest. As Deej notes, more wouldn't hurt. smile

Very nice traditional country song with an Easter message.

I enjoyed the vocals, lyrics, guitar solo, and the key change after the instrumental break.

Resurrection of an old song on Resurrection Sunday - a cool idea [Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]
Nice arrangement and performance.
It could be a bit faster for my taste, but it works well as it is.

Sounds good, Herb. An excellent Easter message. Happy Easter and week late. Today's sermon was about doubting Thomas, so your song fits in with today's morning service. Dual guitar solo? That was cool.
