• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 play whole song, lo-fi (modem)

Here is the story behind the song Jesus, Your King:

I was talking to Dean Lane, my L.A. friend and studio engineer.
I was complaining that I was in the mood to write a song but didn't have a reason to write.
"Write a gospel song for me then," he said.
"Like what," I asked?
He said, "Something like I Saw The Light by Hank Williams."
I said, "O.K." and I went to Borders to listen to the song.
I also pulled out all my old Tennessee Ernie Ford gospel albums I used to listen to when I was little.
Then I began to write.

Well--- Jesus, Your King isn't quite like I Saw The Light, but here is what came out!

Jesus, Your King

The sweetest name on earth is
Jesus, your king
Jesus, your king
The sweetest song of peace
Jesus, he sings
Jesus, he sings

Gather happy hearts all a-quiver
Rejoice in his river of love

The sweetest face on earth is
Jesus, your king
Jesus, your king
The savior Lamb of God is
Jesus, your king
Jesus, your king

Rejoice hail the power all around you
Triumph in his river of blood

The sweetest name on earth is
Jesus, your king
Jesus, your king
The sweetest song of peace
Jesus, he sings
Jesus, he sings

Journey to the gate of the all mighty
Unite in his roll call of love

The sweetest name on earth is
Jesus, your king
Jesus, your king
The sweetest song of peace
Jesus, he sings
Jesus, he sings

Flock pure of heart all in triumph
Wash in his river of blood

The sweetest name on earth is
Jesus, your king
Jesus, your king…
