DESCENDANTS OF ASAPH Asaph was the first and chief musician in the early days before the temple was built in Jerusalem. By all accounts (1Chron 16v5) he was a percussionist and drummer and together with Heman and Jeduthun formed the first worship band to accompany the choir in praise and worship of God He wrote a number of psalm lyrics under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. His lyrics are very down to earth and he likes to say things exactly as they are! 'Descendants of Asaph' follow in his tradition and is a virtual band dedicated to making music and song unto the Lord and presenting His challenge to the world today through parables in music.

Story behind the song
Inspired by Old Testament book of Job chapter 19
Lyrics
ENGRAVED IN THE ROCK Like a bad dream, by day and through the night An open wound turning septic in my sight I’ve been caught within a net Hedged in with no way out I cry aloud but will anybody hear? I need a friend but no one ventures near I’m forgotten and despised All my hope is gone But I know that my Redeemer lives He shall stand upon the earth But I know that my Redeemer lives And at last I shall see God Face to face A courtroom drama, I protest my innocence Standing in the dock but where is my defence? When the verdict has been passed Justice goes astray No words express the anguish that I feel I’ve lost my case with no hope of an appeal Oh that my words were written down Engraved in rock for all to read But I know that my Redeemer lives He shall stand upon the earth Yes I know that my Redeemer lives And at last I shall see God Yes I know, yes I know My Redeemer lives Yes I know, yes I know My Redeemer lives And at last I shall see God Face to face
