    Good stuff. If you were to sell your music this would be your hit. Thanks for the free worship music though. Keep rocken on. Is it just me but did your recording quality get better? Godspeed, your Brother in the flesh and in the spirit, Tim

    Dan: Did you use a particular template to set-up your website? I have written quite a number of praise songs and would like to post them in the same way with the same convictions that you have shared.
    God Bless you for your inspiration!

    Dan – Just found your website and thought I would say hi! Hope all is well and thanks again for sharing your worship with me for so many years. Miss you!

    Hello Dan,

    First, I want to say, love the music. I'm always on the look out for great praise and worship music. It's such a blessing to me. I heard about your music through Bible Study Podcasts, and I loved the first song I heard and now I'm hooked.

    I do have a suggestion, if you don't mind. This is very powerful song. One that is completely captivating. It frustrates me at the end when it fades out. I'd love to hear a big BANG finish if possible. Of if you choose the fade out, fade out to just the guitar and let the word "Freedom" be stong and full at the end of the song.

    Just my thoughts. Thanks for all you do.

    Sincerely,
    Melody

    Melody,

    Thanks for the encouragement and the comment. I agree with you about the ending, I feel the same way. I can't remember exactly why but there was a problem like the mic fell off the stand or something, and I had to fade at the point I did.

    That's kinda the dilemma I find myself in. Time and cost is always of the essence. So sometimes I just post a song with some (or many) imperfections. As much as that urks me, it's either that or not post at all. I wish I had the time and resources to achieve a more finished sounding song. Hopefully I'll get a little better at the technical side of things as time goes on.

    Thanks again for your thought, I really appreciate them.

    Thanks,

    Dan

    I just discovered your podcast and website and wonderful talent. I really appreciate and love all your songs. I've been playing and singing for three years, the three years that I've come to know my Savior, and music has been the dominant media that God has always used in my walk. I thank you for the tabs to the songs, I also write some of my own, but love to fall in love with someone elses creation and then play it also. Continue to do what you're doing, it's raw and beautiful sounding, it's clear you're a man after God, and I love how that is evident in your songs. It's what we all strive for in our walk to be as close to Him every day of our lives. God Bless

    Hi dan,

    Great song that you have. I love it. Always remind me the freedom I have received through Christ Jesus.
    Just wondering if you can email me the chords of this songs so that I can play too.
    Would appreciate it a lot. : )

    Thanks

    Hey,
    I just discovered the podcast and heard some of your stuff. It's great hearing new worship songs like this. Well I am part of a worship team at a start up church and we are in the process of trying to radically change what we are doing. I was looking for some new songs and I love this one. Any chance you can email me the changes and lyrics? That would be great.

    Thanks,
    Bryce

    hi, a friend of mine showed me some of your songs and i love the message of this one! i was hoping you could email me the lyrics so i could share them with others! thanks so much and keep up the awesome work you do for our Lord!

  10. Dan Says:

    Hey Jade, Thanks for the comment. I attached the charts for this song. There is also a post on the website morerain.com that has all of the charts in a zip file. God Bless, Dan

    I just totally stumbled onto your website by accident looking for some acoustic worship to listen to with my baby and I must say that you are really, really good. Do you have a CD? Peace of Christ, ldg

  12. Torre Says:

    dan the man! i am positive that you get generalized comments all the time about how people just love your music and how they appreciate what the Lord has been doing through you and how they just want to say thank you... well, that's pretty much what this is. i can't express how refreshing it is to not only find and listen to a delightful, Word-inspired, uplifting set of tunes, but for it to be free. the Gospel is free to anyone who will take of it. i realize musicians have to eat, too. so i know they need to make a living, but for you to generously give of the gifts that God has given you... it is very encouraging. keep it up brother. God bless.

  13. David Says:

    Shalom Dan, Thank you for sharing your gift with us. Your music is so beautiful and I am so grateful that you've choosen to freely give. I came across your Podcast for the first time last night and I had an amazing time worshiping The Lord and soaking in His presence along with your music. Thank you for recording such genuine, sincere, from the heart worship music. It is a great blessing to the body of Christ. May The Lord totally bless you in abundance with health, strength, favour, open heavens, new wine, love, peace, and joy in Holy Spirit! Shalom! David

    Love this worship song... could you email me the Lyrics and chords... Thank you so much!

  15. Torrent SE Says:

    Thank you for a nice song! I have personally arranged over 150 of today’s popular worship songs – more times than I can count – but even having an intimate relationship with every song doesn’t mean that I know exactly what song will work with the theme for this week’s services. Sometimes I truly cannot find a song that ties in perfectly; if that happens I have a tendency to write one.
