The majority of the songs on this CD are a direct result of the Word of God flowing from our leadership at River of Life Church. Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." I am so grateful and privileged to sit at this table and eat of this Bread of Life. Many of these songs, as you will hear, reflect the heart of this wonderful body of Christ we call Home. So, come on in and sit down at the Father's table with me. Let's "taste and see, that the Lord is good." Good indeed. Bon apetit!

Glory of the Father

Let Him breathe on the flame. Let Him burn inside your frame 2x. And the glory of the Father will usher in His holy reign.
Speak Holy Father
"We do not find, nor do we seek for the voice of the Lord in the winds, earthquakes and fires of our experiences with Him. He is not in the manifestations. The manifestations are a result of His presence and power. Now see, here is the difficulty with the Church. The Church seeks to hear His voice in manifestations. Oh, Lord let Your fire fall, Oh Lord, just come and shake up or do something! And when the Lord's doing something, maybe we will hear You then. It's this way in our individual lives. We're seeking to hear God through signs, through manifestations rather than hearing His voice".
He's not in the wind. He's not in all the noise. He's not in the earthquake or the fire. He's in the still, small voice. 2x
So speak, Holy Father. Your voice is life to me. Speak, Holy Father for I am listening. Your voice, Your voice, covered in the mantle of Your Glory, I turn to see Your voice, I turn to see Your voice.
"Our hearts must be converted to see Him as He is now. If we turn to see the Voice. And If we really want to see Him, and hear His voice, we must see as He is. As our Alpha and Omega, as our Beginning and End, as our First and Last"
Your voice, Your voice. Covered in the mantle of Your Glory, I turn to see Your voice, I turn to see Your voice. 2x
