Christ centered songs written by Dan Simmons...the best Gospel and inspirational A.I. music on the internet!
"firesong" is the songwriting ministry of Dan Simmons Thanks for stopping by. It's my desire to faithfully share that which has been given to me. This website will be a sampling of recordings that I, along with family and friends, have done over past 45 years. There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site. Special thanks go to my partners in music, my daughter Amber, son Ian and the guys of Single Heart (Gene, Bob, Chris, Marty and Tata) who joined me to sing praises to the Lord down through the years. I also wish to thank those co-writers and artists that have joined with me in developing new music the passed few years to share on this website. I'm now featuring AI (Artificial Intelligence) groups that I've developed to sing some of the songs. I hope it's evident to everyone... that though the melodies and harmonies, styles and singers may change... JESUS has always been and will always be...the Song! ...this music is one simple expression of a very thankful heart. (Dan is a retired firefighter and ordained minister)

Story behind the song
We were asked by the director of our local Rescue Mission to sing at their summer fund raising concert...I began to think about the homeless and destitute and this song for the church came to me....I know the Lord was directing it at me but thought I would share it with everyone.
Lyrics
Voices cry in the wilderness Searching for the answers that we possess Longing for the truth Hungering for a taste of our Bread People die in the wilderness Thirsting for the Wine that the Lord has pressed Settling for the bitter taste of their own success Unquenched the thirst keeps troubling their minds (chorus) And we’ve been too long not hearing We’ve been too long with blinded eyes We’ve been so wrong not caring We can’t hear the Spirit call If we can’t hear the voice of their cry Spirit of Christ open up our eyes Help our blinded hearts to see again Shake us from ourselves...take us off the shelf Wake us from this slumber we’ve been in (chorus) And we’ve been too long not hearing We’ve been too long with blinded eyes We’ve been so wrong not caring We can’t hear the Spirit call If we can’t hear the voice of their cry (repeat chorus and instrumental) (chorus) Oh. Lord we’ve been too long not hearing We’ve been too long with blinded eyes We’ve been so wrong not caring We can’t hear the Spirit call If we can’t hear the voice of their cry
