I've heard this hymn song by dozens of people and choirs. This is one of the best!

The worship pastor I play for, David Parker, was Chris Tomlin's roommate at Texas A&M. Dave told me the other day, "Chris can't play but about 4 or 5 chords, but he knows how to put them together into amazing worship songs." I thought that was pretty funny.

Where were you in '72? This tune was all over the radio as the Eagles debut single from their eponymous first album. Composed by Glen Frey and neighbor Jackson Brown it was the kick off tune for my last summer as a long haired hippie college student.
R.I.P. Glen Frey.
