A rockin worship machine on a crash course with Heaven!
------ . This CD is a must have for anyone looking for something new and refreshing in Christian music. This CD has a little of something for everyone who is a fan of modern, adult rock. If you are a fan of top 40 type music. then I suggest checking out "When I go on", "Before Forever", "Holy Kiss" and the inspirational track "New". All 4 of these songs could easily make the rotation on any major contemporary radio station across the country. If you like songs with a little bit more of an edge, then be sure and listen to "Deeper Still" & the title track "Fire". There are also some great slower tracks such as the haunting "Allasso" and the emotional "In the Garden of Wildflowers". For the Ballad lovers out there pull out your lighters and select "Lost in You" and my personal favorite "Father's Eyes". You will truly be inspired. The bottom line is this is an amazing CD by an artist that will without a doubt one day be a big name in Christian music. ------------------------------------------------- This music is for real and right. It gets better everytime I listen to it! ------------------------------------------------- Go to Jamey's official forum and let him know what "you" think of his music or just stop by and say hello. . -------------------------------------------------

Story behind the song
I was asked to come up with a Father's Day song for a sunday service and I really wanted to write something instead of singing someone else's song. Well I sat down and asked the Holy Spirit to help me write a song about The Cross of Calvary from Father God's perspective. He then asked me, "how would you feel if you were in His position?" Having two wonderful little boys at the time I began to draw on my feelings for them as a father. I added the last section after being reminded of a missions conference I had attended just before this and how the Muslims look down on Christians for believing that Father God could have sent His very own son to His death. They believe that we dishonor Him in doing so. Well if God says in John 15:13 that "greater love has no man than to lay down his life for another". I know that God had to be bursting with pride on the day of his crucifixion.
Lyrics
1 At twelve years old I could not comprehend How it must have made you feel To see His blood soaked face I know I did not understand Why you'd give new life to me and take my place But when I look in the eyes of my own son I see a war of love that had to be won And a priceless prize that no one could shun Chorus When you see the world through fathers eyes You see a world of hope and love, and helpless cries When you see a child through fathers eyes And feel a world of hope and love, you watch Him die 2 "Peace on earth good will toward man" Now that I'm a father too I think I understand But one think I can't imagine still Of how anxious joy for two days must build Knowing that the war is won And in the bowels of the earth is your only son And that He will rise to be the KING OF KINGS Chorus 3 It must have filled your heart with pride to watch He did not walk away, He did not walk away It must have filled your heart with pride to watch He did not walk away, He did not walk away It must have filled your heart with pride to watch That little boy become the King of Kings
