Praise and worship of Jesus Christ in an Eclectic blend of acoustic and electric guitars. The words are from The Word and my Christian testimony of the struggle
Why do we do what we do, or believe what we believe? Some judge the materialistic as all there is. But, where does the beautiful painting of artistic expression in canvas, word, music and thought come from? From where do we derive altruistic love and feeling for one another? The materialistic explanations fall short of elucidation, let alone understanding of the incorporeal and/or supernatural aspects of our lives. So much so that the inadequate reasoning of the materialists become illogical and incomprehensible. So, why the opposing worldviews? If you believe the material world is the only answer, I would ask that you open your mind to the possibility of your own self imposed limitations. Does the well rounded mind limit itself? Where then does growth come from? In my personal life, I have found music can be a healing balm, a positive motivator and a conduit to profound worship. The music my Lord has given me to play and minister with, are in conjunction with my testimony, my life’s story, and the gifts He has given me. Along with studies for a Masters Degree in Christian Apologetics and Polemics, I am also completing studies for a Masters degree in Theology as well. Again, I feel that you never quit learning, nor are we supposed to. You become stagnant if you remain static! Thanks and God Bless Ron

Story behind the song
One day, while I was in Sunday School, we were studying about the life of David, when this came to me. The way he freely worshipped God, not holding back one bit. That's how I want to worship God! A lot of Christian worship is stiff, constrained and lifeless. God gave us the freedom to worship Him in Music, Dance and Song, and with Instruments. David was unashamed to dance and sing in front of the people and God. Why should we be? Psalm 100 "Make a joyful noise unto the Lord all ye lands"!
Lyrics
Let Your Chains Fall Away Remember when David brought the Ark Back to Jerusalem He danced and sang be-fore the Lord He didn’t care, He had no fear He clapped his hands and stomped his feet He sang to the Lord with all his might He let his chains fall away He didn’t worry who was around him He danced and sang before the Lord He didn’t care, He didn’t fear He clapped his hands and stomped his feet And sang to the Lord So let your chains fall away Don’t worry who’s around you Dance and sing before the Lord Have no care, have no fear When Paul and Silas were thrown in jail They sang hymns and praised the Lord They didn’t care, they didn’t fear They just sang through the night They were there to worship They were there to praise They were there to make a joyful noise to the Lord So let your chains fall away Don’t worry who’s around you Dance and sing before the Lord Have no care, have no fears Clap your hands and stomp your feet Sing to the Lord with all your might Because we're there to worship And we're there to praise And we're there to make a joyful noise to the Lord Words And Music: © 2006 Ronald E.
