Respite for the Remnant

I’m that old to have been writing music and strumming a guitar back in the Jesus Movement days. Today’s “musical respite” for you, dear reader, is from my “archive” resurrected from a fragile beat-up cassette tape with the help of my daughter Jenni and son-in law Gary who are eons more knowledgeable about technical thingies than I am.

With a little AI enhancement this tune never sounded so good–nor did I in reality–back in the day nor do I today, except for the styling vibe. My guitar, however, was–and is–a little dinged up but it still puts out the chords.

NOTE: when you sit back for a listen, I hope, in some quiet corner, keep in mind that the “singer” here is Jesus, the “you,” is, well, you peering at this screen, because sometimes Jesus gets this personal–even smack dab in the middle of some fray or other, often multiple, frays.

May I invite you to pause a little in your busy life and savor.
