Date: Apr 17 2000 22:25:00 EDT From: "Songs of Praise" Subject: Songs of Praise - The Rain Is Falling Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, This week we have a new song, a new Afrikaans translation and several new SATB music scores at "Songs of Praise". The new praise song is called "The Rain Is Falling". I started this one, and Steve and Larry joined in on the lyrics and arrangement. You can hear our song at: http://songsofpraise.org/falling.htm We will create a SATB music score very soon. Speaking of SATB (soprano/alto/tenor/bass) music scores... people have been requesting these a lot so I have created several new ones: - All Of My Heart (http://songsofpraise.org/myheart.htm) - As I Gaze At The Stars (http://songsofpraise.org/stars.htm) - Shout Hosanna (http://songsofpraise.org/hosanna.htm) I will be happy to make more. Please send your suggestions. Someone has already suggested "Jesus Is The Light" so I will do that one soon. Finally, André Esterhuyse of South Africa has sent a new Afrikaans translation of "God's Love Makes Me New" called "God se Liefde": http://songsofpraise.org/newza.htm - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Here are the lyrics to "The Rain Is Falling"... Jesus calls, listen to the words He said: "Come to Me, taste the neverending bread". His loving kindness Is like a beacon in the night that shows The Way Won't you hear the Savior's call? His tender mercy Is like a shower in the desert bringing life Feel the rain begin to fall. The rain is falling, The Lord is calling, His voice again and again and again is pleading with you.
