A little country, a little blues, and a whole lot of Jesus and fun.
Dave Gearhart is a renowned contemporary worship leader, songwriter, and accomplished musician and composer, writing contemporary Christian songs since 1999. Dave has pooled his talents and put a few of his songs together to produce this solo artist album. With the inspirational Christian lyrics set to country and rhythm and blues arrangements, it is truly an upbeat and uplifting album. It is our prayer that this album will minister to you and your friends who may want something other than a hard rock or gospel or soft worship style of music. Hopefully, this is somewhere in between all that and you can offer your friends who like this kind of music a different look at who Jesus really is. He is the ANSWER. - Dave and Dave.

Story behind the song
Lord, Have Mercy Blues was written for the men at Chino prison. My friend, Rick Hoover, asked me to join the Praise Team that ministers to Chino and I wrote this song not realizing it pertains to all of us who make our own “prisons” in life.
Lyrics
Lord, have mercy on this child Lord, have mercy, mercy on This foolish child I spent too many days Deep in sin and runnin' wild I'm tired so tired of my evil ways I'm tired so tired of my evil ways I just wanna come on home And bring You all my love and my praise Come on and take my heart Come on and take my soul Take this worn out wasted life, Lord And make me whole, I need you to Heal my heart, I can't do it alone Take my burdens and lead me home Back in Your everlasting arms Is where I belong Now I thank You, Jesus for giving me a new start Yes I thank You, Jesus for giving me a new start O, what peace I have With You living deep in my heart Now I've seen the light, Lord Let Your Spirit dwell in me Yes, I've seen the light, Lord Let Your Spirit dwell in me O, what joy I'll have To live with You eternally
