Story behind the song
I wrote this paraphrased setting of Psalm 146 in 2004. It uses a gospel flavored accompaniment with Band in a Box support on the backing and the solo. My lead vocal is supplemented with TC-Helicon produced harmonies. My 12-String Epiphone guitar provides the chops throughout the recording.
