Jesus Freak Hideout Podcast

Jesus Freak Hideout Podcast

We are mentioned in this Podcast at around 19:49 minutes. He gives a thumbnail sketch of our history. He notes that our sound "balances the classic rock sound" that was popular when we started, "....picking up other elements along the way and sometimes getting pretty epic in scope, but also knowing when to get simple and smaller, when to pull back and be tender....". He presents our song "Sunrise" as a balance of these two styles on "Overflow", playing a clip of "Sunrise" in the middle and playing the whole song at the end (39:38). Pretty cool, huh?

We are celebrating! After 42 years of existence as a group, Living Waters has our first full-length studio album released on Spotify. It is now also on Amazon and many other sites. I never thought this would happen. There have been hints and the aroma of grace associated with this project the whole way, as if it wasn't really our idea, but Someone else's. I call the result a small miracle. Please, rejoice with us by listening on Spotify, if you have it. If you don't, it's easy to sign up. MAKE SURE TO PRESS THE "FOLLOW" BUTTON!!! Plus, we get a tiny remuneration for our troubles. We are praying you will be amply enLIGHTened and blessed!

Peace & Love & JOY,

Mark LaJOIE! with

A New "Sunrise" and More

A New "Sunrise"...and More!

Things are starting to really heat up in music production land. Mike's song "Sunrise" has just been re-mixed from the GarageBand demo, and...it is absolutely gorgeous! Mike says he actually wrote this one way back in those days when we were young. Now we in the band are all closer to that final sunrise, the one that will last and last and last...when we will meet Our Risen Savior, Deo volentes. This song sounds like a movie score; come to think of it, Josh has done those, hasn't he! Yes he actually has done that for pay! CLICK!

Sunrise!

Danny Gagnon

Dave Bourque, Mike & John

Thematically, it matches well the other song that Josh has now re-mixed, "When He Came Into My Life". This was written by Danny Gagnon and Dave Bourque back in the late 70's. I (Mark Lajoie) re-imagined it with a Dave-type bass line and recently worked it up on GarageBand. This also has been re-mixed to great advantage.

Here are the lyrics, all about a personal Pentecost and the desire to give everything. The spiritual life actually is a constant battle with vice, evil and anything that gets in the way of loving God and our neighbor with all that we are.

“When He Came Into My Life”

by Daniel Gagnon & Dave Bourque, adapted by Mark Lajoie

copyright 2010

When He came in-to my life He set my heart on fi-re

Loos-ened the bonds and set me free with His love

Yes, He came in-to my life with tongues of burn-ing fi-re

Lord Je-sus, my sa-vior I know that I'm read-y to give

He asked me if I was will-ing to give com-plete-ly

For the road is hard and filled with mi-se-ry

"Don't wor-ry, my son, for I will al-ways be with you"

Lord Je-sus, my sa-vior I know that I'm read-y to give

The dark-ness is gone and now I see the light

The blind-ness in my eyes is read-y for sight

With fi-re inside my heart I know I can fight

Lord Je-sus, my sa-vior I know that I'm read-y to give

Well, He can come in-to your life and set your heart on fi-re

Loos-en the bonds and set you free with His love

Well, He can come into your life if that's what you de-si-re

Lord Je-sus, my sa-vior I know that I'm read-y to give

Lord Je-sus, my sa-vior I know that I'm read-y to give

Lord Je-sus, my sa-vior I know that I'm read-y to give
