A rally call for a return to pure Christianity

Submitted By admin on 09/01/30

Aubrey Falconer, music, christianity

The song that's playing is Come Thou Fount of every blessing. Many of you will recognize it as the "Mars Explorer theme song"! The recording was produced impromptu a couple weeks ago while several of my friends and I were playing music together. (Please forgive the audio quality - our recording equipment was nothing more an iPhone sitting in the middle of the room)

Following is what currently exists of a song that I am writing to the same tune:

We Be Brothers

I like to think of it as a rally call for those who are separating themselves from modern, "corporate", bureaucratic, denominational Christianity - and are striving to return to the pure doctrine of the new testament Church. I woke up one morning singing the first verse to myself, and have been gradually adding to it as new verses occur to me.

Sons of Jesus ~ We be brothers,
Daughters ~ ye are sisters too
Cease your squabbles, love each other, just as Jesus Christ loved you

Let us gather now together,
Each among us priests of God
Living stones of Jesus' temple ~ purchased with His holy blood

Some hath psalms, some revelations
Each gift given from above
Let us edify each other - Sharpening iron, forging love

Let us gather now together,
Each as equals to the Lord

As the temples of His Spirit ~ guided by His holy Word

Boldness in the day of judgement,
Following a higher law
Marching onward ~ for His kingdom ~ We shall be known by our love

As we gather In your name Lord,
Just as countless have before
Teach us, lead us ~ guide and feed us ~ as in sacred times of yore

Those four instruments sound really nice together.

Eric;

Click {Direct link to Audio File}, the music will download to your computer, and one double click should send it right into iTunes!

(If it plays in the browser instead of downloading, just go to the "File" menu and select "Save As".)

That was very nice - especially w/o professional equipment! The words are really great too. So, what are the instruments (besides quitar of course).

Thanks for your compliments!

Kellie was playing a mountain dulcimer, two friends ("Edith" and her brother) were playing a guitar and a mandolin, and I was playing my new favorite instrument - a polycarbonate "G", ultra portable, super easy to play, highly affordable mountain occarina.

Kellie has recently been doing amazingly well on the accordion - hopefully I will get a chance to add some of that music soon...
