0 Turn Your Eyes (Official Music Video)

This is the Official Music Video” for my “revived” version of the classic hymn, “Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus.” I altered the melody and chorus and added a bridge; while keeping the lyrics in the verses the same. I am joined on this song by the musical talents of Nick Garrett-Powell who recorded and produced the track as well as singing the amazing harmony parts. On drums with the smooth brush work is the fantastic G.T. Albright and on stand-up bass is John Lingafelter rounding out the little jazz quartet.

We are currently working on a new hymns project in the studio that includes several hymns that I have modified with new melodies and sometimes additional lyrics. This is my attempt at writing a new original hymn in the style of Charles Wesley with a modern worship chorus feel. This song will be included on that project that we hope to release in the near future.

Here is another “revived” hymn for my hymns project “Hymnody” that we are hoping to get completed soon. This song will be joined by my versions of “Turn Your Eyes”, “When I Survey The Wondrous Cross”, “Where Shall My Wondering Soul Begin” and others. This is another one of Charles Wesley’s from 1739, “And Can It Be That I Should Gain”. I took parts of the stanzas to create verses, a chorus and an out at the end and created a new melody as the backing.
