I've always loved the fingerpicking style of Merle Travis and Chet Atkins...and these are styles that lend themselves perfectly to gospel music especially acoustic gospel...Boom-chick is light and airey and a free and joyous syncopation...so I tried it with an older song of mine...you can be the judges as to whether it works well or not...I welcome your comments and suggestions...thanks for listening...Dan

I like this version a lot. The fingerpicking style does work with the song. Enjoyed my listen.

Not always a given that playing a gospel song in any one of a number of non traditional styles is going to work out. In this one, "He Cares for Me," by my standards, it definitely did work very well.
Hope to hear more in this vein by you and your group, Dan. You are on to something.

Very cool song. Super vocal. Acoustic background. Chet Atkins vibe. Super harmonies.. Well done

Charles, Ed and Scott...thanks guys for the thumbs up on "He Cares For Me"...I love this style of music and am glad you all thought it worked well here...I appreciate the feedback...Dan

Very nicely done. I really liked the harmonies too. Nice on the ears

Loved it.

Outstanding backing tracks and a great vocal; loved those harmonies. That boom-chick works extremely well. The lyrics took it over the top for my, they are so true!

Outstanding song.

Marty and Mario...thanks for your comments...very encouraging and appreciated...Dan

Nice one!
