    Story Behind the Song
    This is a Spiritual, almost Gospel type of tune that comes to me from time to time. I assume that at some level I'm having these conversations with God in prayer, although I'm not always consciously aware of it. What comes through is the Inspiration that then becomes the song. I'm almost always surprised at what comes out.
    This song struck me pretty hard when I first wrote it and in this first incarnation I recorded a demo of it in Nashville. Went over pretty well down there.
    This is the current version. I can always hear a Choir in the background, so I'm not willing to say it's the final version just yet.

    Lyrics
    Oh Holy, Oh Holy, Oh Holy (2)

    Oh Holy Truth Sayer
    How have we been
    Your mighty army
    Your Nation of men

    Come to me quickly
    I now say to you
    Come to me darling
    Come to me true

    . . .singing
    Oh Holy, Oh Holy, Oh Holy (2)

    I am yours my love
    Oh true as that is
    I am yours forever
    Let that be my wish

    A wish and a whisper
    On that I can assure
    Love me Almighty One
    Help me to mature

    Oh .. Oh .. Oh .. Oh ..(3)

    Gain all that you can
    Standing there by Me
    Gain yourself a house now
    And not just a dream

    A house made of courage
    Sacrifice and good
    A house made of pilgrimage
    And no more "I should"

    A house made for Love now
    On that He insists
    A house made for Love darling
    Is how He persists

    . . . singing . . .
    Oh Holy, Oh Holy, Oh Holy . . .
