This modern worship song will get stuck in your head immediately! 4 simple chords & an infectiously singable chorus make this tune at home in a rock setting or an 'unplugged' format. Grab your guitar and fire up the amp! |

Story Behind the Song
I was in Phoenix for 2 weeks of training and took my recording gear and guitar with me. I tried all week to write a song, with dismal results. On the weekend, I met my wife and kids at the Lawrence's house. Saturday afternoon, I had the Bible on the coffee table, and was plunking on the guitar. God literally dropped this song on me in 5-10 minutes. I'm like "Hey guys, check this out..." They started singing with me, and we did the song that Sunday at church. Since my guitar-whiz friend Dustin Boston (The Avocado Project) now lives in Phoenix, I enlisted his help during my 2nd week of training. He did 4 guitar tracks and a bass line in less than 2 hours. I recorded the acoustic guitar part sitting on my hotel room floor, with a Shure SM57 mic laying on a folded bath towel. Got back home after training and did the synth and drum loops. (Look for version 2.0 with real drums by Steve Burgess in the near future)
Anyway, that's probably more than you wanted to know about the song...

Declare Your Glory
by John Green - Copyright © 2002
(inspired by Psalm 19)
The heavens declare
The glory of God
Creation shows His handiwork
Day after day
Night after night
The message goes out
To all the Earth
(chorus)
The heavens declare Your glory
The heavens declare Your glory
The heavens declare Your glory, oh God
The heavens declare Your glory
The heavens declare Your glory
The heavens declare Your glory, so will I -----
We're called to shine
As lights in the dark
Burning brightly with His love
Telling the world
Of all that He's done
Taking the message to all the Earth
