      @@hackednhanoied Just one of his best.
      I had read somewhere a long time ago that he wrote that song early on. Like maybe in the Glass Harp days and it was about a women.
      And that added and or, changed a few things to make it about the Lord.
      When you first listen, it can sound like a regular love song, in fact, much of it does.
      But what he added made it a love song to Jesus.
      I kind of think it's partially to his wife but mostly about the Lord.
      "I believe the day is coming when we'll never be apart" has to be about eternal life.
      But also, maybe he's also saying that to his wife in an eternal sense.
      It's a beautiful song either way.

      I attended one of his live concerts in the '90's; it was at a church, so it was pretty intimate. Being that close to a guitar master while he performed was something I'll never forget.
      Unfortunately, I was never able to see Iona perform live. If you enjoy a good shred, check out Dave Bainbridge's guitar solo at 4:19 (but please check out the whole song; it's beautiful.)

    Yahweh, I'm here to say I believe Him
    Eloi, this is my cry to receive Him
    Emmanuel has come to dwell within us
    Messiah One, God's only Son is Jesus
    Within the Psalm
    Sore agony comes to the poet
    The sin of them all
    Plus the cross made him fall below it
    That's why He was born
    That His body be torn and the veil rent
    In His loving grace
    He took my place in payment
    Yahweh, I'm here to say I believe Him
    Eloi, this is my cry to receive Him
    Emmanuel has come to dwell within us
    Messiah One, God's only Son is Jesus
    Yahweh, I'm here to say I believe Him
    Eloi, this is my cry to receive Him
    Emmanuel has come to dwell within us
    Messiah One, God's only Son is Jesus
    How we need Him
    How we need Him

    Phil Keaggy must be one of the top 10 guitar players right along with Jimmy Hendrix, Clapton and Jimmy Page. Apparently the fact that he never played in a supergroup and that he became a Christian early on was a negative for the critics.

      The show was aired by Barry McGuire as host. It was in two parts. Part one featured the band DAVID (with Phil Keaggy) and was all 2nd Chapter of Acts songs. The second part aired a week later with the band doing Phil's songs. While this was recorded earlier, the broadcast was in 1982 or 1983. The episode with Phil aired a month or so before I got my first Beta Max home video recorder! I saw the show, and you can bet it would all be here at RUclips for everyone to enjoy if only I had that video machine earlier! Still searching after all these years!!
