Things That Matter -- A New Recording

My wife, Carol, and I made several recordings of Christian music in the 1970's and 1980's. We used these tools for ministry as we traveled around the country preaching and singing the Gospel. Believe it or not, we hear today from some who still listen and are blessed through those recordings. Remind me to tell you the "yard sale" cassette story some day. Oh, by the way, we still have some plastic albums and 8-track tapes collecting dust. I've even thought about posting them on Ebay to see if they might generate a bid.

I have recently been singing with sound tracks of excellent quality and annointing produced at Benson Sound in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Last year I made inquiry with Benson Sound about recoring with them and set a date for December of 2005. However, I ended up with a herniated disk in my neck which delayed the recording process until this year. Carol and I made the trip to Oklahoma City on June 1 and spent the next day in the studio. The result is a new recording titled, Things That Matter, which includes fourteen songs around the themes of Faith, Family and Freedom.

Here is a listing of the songs on the new project:
  1. We Will Glorify
  2. Hallowed Be Thy Name
  3. We Fall Down
  4. Medley: Heaven’s Jubilee – When We All Get To Heaven – What A Day That Will Be
  5. Medley: Above All / My Jesus I Love Thee
  6. I Never Shall Forget The Day
  7. Medley: Turn Your Eyes / There Is None Like You
  8. Let The Redeemed
  9. Medley: If I Gained The World – Jesus Is The Sweetest Name I Know
  10. Singing With The Saints
  11. He Set Me Free
  12. Strongholds Are Coming Down
  13. America Bless God
  14. Things That Matter

Our prayer is that God will use the recording to touch someone's life with His love and grace.
