Here is a new song I just finished. I wrote this for the worship band I play in at my church. All comments and critiques welcome. Put Your Faith in JesusPut Your Faith in JesusIt's never too late to say you're sorry Turn your back on your mistakes God rewards faith with forgiveness The Power of Christ prepares the way Put your faith in Jesus And don't look back x4 This world tempts us with illusion Blinds our heart to the Savior's plan Salvation lives in the Word of God Given to us by the Son of Man Put your faith in Jesus And don't look back x4 Instrumental Break Christ is the Resurrection He is eternal life Whosoever believes in Him They shall live and never die Put your faith in Jesus And don't look back x4

Very well done. Loved the singing; both tone and arrangement. The negative: Whenever I listen to worship songs, they all seem to have, (what I consider) the same flaw: the lyric content never seems to offer a new twist or a new angle and that's disappointing. Aside from that -I enjoyed the song. Best -Mike

TC,
Pretty cool sound you have here with this one, nice melody., sweet harmonies in the chorus. It’s not my genre, but that doesn’t keep from appreciating the artistry. Well done!
Best regards,
Deej

I liked the sound and your harmonies. I would have put the vocals a bit more up front in the mix. Regards Mimmo

We will see if I can come up with more memorable lyrics on new material. I appreciate the listen and critique. Peace, TC

I liked the sound and your harmonies. I would have put the vocals a bit more up front in the mix. Regards Mimmo Thanks, Mimmo. My wife and I had MANY discussions about the main vocal level, lol. In the end, it was a compromise with me thinking it a bit loud and her wanting it louder. It's always a fine line (especially for someone that doesn't really have great vocal chops!). I appreciate the listen and comments. Peace, TC

Great song very well produced lovely harmony In short exceptional Thanks, Travis. I wrangled my wife into the studio and made her sing the top harmony. It was a struggle but a bit of rope and a lock on the door helped! I'm glad you liked it; many thanks for the listen. Peace, TC
