Story behind the song
Basically i am at heart, an end time evangelist who is a pastor! My heart is evangelism and i love to win people to Jesus and share the message of salvation. However, i am compelled to tell the truth, whole truth, nothing but the truth, so help me God!!! Which includes informing my audience of the troubled times we live in, and also prophetic end time events. Because it all leads to THE SOON RETURN OF JESUS! I preach and teach about the last days all the time to my congregation. But i wanted to sing about it the same way i preach about it. That's why you can feel what i'm singing about in this song! I was very emotional in the studio when i recorded this song and it comes across in the recording. The music is also energized and charged with passion designed to carry the compelling, convicting, lyrical content! I also wanted to give some hope in the midst of the last day turmoil with the "Hook Of The Song" which is the title of the song... the words, "The Best Is Yet To Come" so while i'm describing the perilous days we live in, i'm also pointing you to a brighter day to come. This is a "Double edged" song! Reminding God's people of the coming redemption and also it's an invitation to sinners to come get in on God's best ( Abundant Life ) while there is still yet time!!! The slight rawness you hear in my vocals was due to a previous case of laryngitis, but i liked the raw sound which helped display my real emotions coming across in the song! Normally i would have scratched that take and waited another day or 2 to be in smooth voice... But the rawness really captured my attention and grabbed me! So i decided to keep it just as it is.. (unpolished and gritty) which is some times better!!
Lyrics
"The Best Is Yet To Come" ( Chorus Repeat ) I'm working with ambition because the best is yet to come i'm going on a mission because the best is yet to come ( 1st Verse ) As i look around it's plain to see the fulfillment of prophecy i don't mean to sound like a kill joy but when they talk about peace they start another war children dying in the streets going without enough to eat these are the beginnings of sorrows and it's not gonna get better tomorrow ( Bridge ) So glad i have found a better way i'm looking forward to a brighter day i have life more abundantly i want you to come and go with me because the best ( Chorus ) I'm working with ambition because the best is yet to come i'm going on a mission because the best is yet to come ( 2nd Verse ) We are living in troubled times people looking for peace of mind running to and fro looking here and there only to realize can't find it nowhere i know a man who can give you peace deliver you and he'll set you free set you on a road to victory take you to heaven to live eternally ( Bridge ) So glad i found a better way i'm looking forward to a brighter day i have life more abundantly i want you to come go with me because the best (Chorus ) I'm working with ambition because the best is yet to come i'm going on a mission because the best is yet to come Written, Arranged and Produced by Garry Moore for Outreach Productions!

Pastor Moore, If U don't mind me saying so,... I have 2 agree with the brother on the Minneapolis comment. (we definitely hear 'Prince' type funk jumping off here) :) There is something 2 be said for head bobbing, toe tapping, hand clapping joints like this one that have a message. They grab U and move U. Without a doubt, one of my favorites from your collection. Respect 2 U my brother. Peace

I'm listening to that rhythm guitar and thinking "did Pastor G do some 'time' in Minneapolis"??? LOL Great song with a great rhythm to it. I love when you change things up with the female vocals. Hook is fun and nostalgic, but with a serious message. Production is solid.
