"The Rock I Cling To (Humble Praise)"

Verse 1
You opened my eyes so that I
Can finally see the truth
You put me on a path to righteousness
So I might walk with You
You put a song in my heart
So I might sing Your Praise
Sing a song of Your Glory
Sing a song of Your Grace
Oh Lord!

Chorus
You're the rock I cling to in the storm
You've been with me since the day I was born
Surely Your goodness and mercy
Will follow me all of my days
And all I have to give to You Lord...
Is my Humble Praise!

Verse 2
You put a fire in my soul
A fire that's still burning bright
You gave me Your word to pierce the darkness
Like a torch burning in the night
You put Your protection around me
When I was lonely and scared
You had Your angels surround me
I know I could feel them there
Oh Lord!

Chorus
You're the rock I cling to in the storm
You've been with me since the day I was born
Surely Your goodness and mercy
Will follow me all of my days
And all I have to give to You Lord...
Is my Humble Praise!

Chorus
You're the rock I cling to in the storm
You've been with me since the day I was born
Surely Your goodness and mercy
Will follow me all of my days
And all I have to give to You Lord...
Is my Humble Praise!

Nice job on this Bawb! The backing band works well and at first listen I thought you had female background singers until I took a closer look at your band description. Did you play the lead guitar parts? If so, it was played well. I didn't see a soloist listed! Thanks, Torrey

Great job on the band, and, man, what passion in your voice, Bawb. You really sell it!! Great song for sharing the experience. That falsetto is pretty high and it sounds so good --like someone watching the performance offstage who can't help herself from belting it out.

Bawb,

Good BAND. Good vocals (of course). Cool BGVs.

The vocal is a bit "above the mix" (opinion). Could use some "softening" in the upper EQ range (and, perhaps, a bit more reverb?)

Hi Bawb,

Nice intro and a lot of passion in your lyrics. The sequence of chords is very pleasant. Well done.

Kindly regard

Catchy!

I agree with floyd jane about the vocal balance. I turned it up at the beginning, and my daughter (trying to listen to NPR with her headphones on) asked me to turn it down... and then the vocals came in!

Great job with the vocals - the falsetto harmony works nicely!

Hi Torry,
Thanks for listening!
I actually made a mistake in typing the instruments.
I used 2203: Guitar, Electric, SoloistPopPromiseBrent for the solo. I WISH I could platy like that!

Thanks for the advice Floyd. I adjusted the vocals down a little and added some reverb. Hopefully it sounds better now.
