The Lord sent this song as I was driving down Route 140
in Bellingham MA, on the way to make a bank deposit.
It came so quickly that I had to pull over in a nearby parking lot
to write it down (before I forgot the melody and words!)

It was first publicly sung on Christmas Day 1993 at New Hope Chapel.
Dave Hughes and Bob Burns sang along with me.

Recorded on: "New Works Of Grace.
