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 There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site.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
I was thinking about my family and the legacy that's been entrusted to us by those who've gone ahead and the promises of God attached to this legacy of faith.
Lyrics
How sweet it is to gather as a family How wonderful this fellowship we share But one day when we will gather up in heaven Well the joys of this world will not compare We will celebrate upon the streets of glory We will gather with the saints...over there And we will sing our songs and tell the old, old story How Jesus came...Jesus loved...and we were there Well the angels they will gather just to hear us As we reminisce about God's amazing grace They'll stand in line just to be there near us When we greet our loving Savior face to face We will celebrate upon the streets of glory We will gather with the saints...over there We will sing our songs and tell the old, old story How Jesus came...Jesus loved...and we were there Instrumental We will celebrate upon the streets of glory We will gather with the saints...over there We will sing our songs and tell the old, old story How Jesus came...Jesus loved...and we were there Jesus came...Jesus loved...and we were there

In a world filled with original music, your original songs stand out as a testament to your obvious artistry and dedication. I'm truly impressed with your creativity, and it's evident you've poured your heart and soul into each and every composition. The lyrics are not just words but a reflection of deep emotions, and the melodies they craft are both captivating and soul-stirring. Kudos!!!
