We usually do a pretty contemporary style of music but I still have southern gospel genes. Here's a very rough video of our gospel group, Cornerstone, singing a song I wrote,"I Found I Can Stand".
It was a song born out of tragedy. I attended the funeral of a precious young lady, Joanna Dalton Knepper, who was tragically killed when her car was struck by a drunk driver. One of the illustrations in the eulogy planted the seed that blossomed into a song.
We say time and again, "How can people without a relationship with Jesus make it through tough times?" I still don't know the answer to that one. What I do know from personal experience is when those in Christ reach the bottom, you will find you are standing or more likely kneeling broken on the Solid Rock of Jesus. He is there with open arms to comfort, heal and restore. I've found I can stand.
