Sweet Peace (Studio Combo Version) 02:13
lyrics
SWEET PEACE Words and Music by Dan Holder © 1977 Daniel James Holder - All Rights Reserved Worldwide I used to feel so empty Needing to be filled With something other than my tears; And then, with faith in Jesus, I found while on my knees His Gift of Love that took away my fears. For Jesus lived and died for me To purchase my release So, where I once had guilt I now have His Sweet Peace. It puts my troubled heart At quiet, restful ease In Jesus, now, I know That Sweet, Sweet Peace! So, if you’re feeling empty Needing to be filled With something other than your tears; Just put your faith in Jesus And you will really see His Gift of Love will take away your fears. And how you’ll love to know That Sweet, Sweet Peace!

NEVERMORE ALONE Words and Music by Dan Holder © 1978 Daniel James Holder - All Rights Reserved Worldwide Sometimes when your only friends are butterflies Sometimes when your only light is the sun And you reach your hand out to touch someone But they walk away, and you’re all alone Sometimes when your world is spinning backwards And clouds are rushing in instead of sky And you need to find someone to laugh with But there’s no one, and so you cry Look up, look to the sky Jesus will always be a Friend to you No more, nevermore alone Jesus will always be a Friend to you. So there’s no reason now for being alone You’ve got the best Friend one could ever know He’s true and loving, gentle and caring Wonderful Lord of Lords, So… Look up, look to the sky Jesus will always be a Friend to you No more, nevermore alone Jesus will always be a Friend to you. And... No more, nevermore alone Jesus will always be a Friend… to… you.

CHURCH OF MY CHILDHOOD Words and Music by Dan Holder & Alan Pierce © 1977 Daniel James Holder and Alan Pierce - All Rights Reserved Worldwide Today I remember The old church where I used to go Nestled on the hillside In spring, and winter snow Although it may seem different Unlike in many ways The place that I remember The church of my childhood days It didn’t have a steeple No crosses carved from stone But it was flanked with faithful sleeping Awaiting Gabriel’s horn It may seem to you imperfect And have such simple ways But I still know it’s the house of God The church of my childhood days.

YOU LOVE ME Words and Music by Dan Holder © 1978 Daniel James Holder - All Rights Reserved Worldwide About as unworthy as a man can get I am such a man, and yet, You love me. While scraping the bottom of this world I found me: a sinful man, But You love me, Lord, You love me. Please, Dear Lord, don’t let me go Wash me with Your blood, for I know Though I fall and fall again That Your forgiveness lifts my feet And shows me in Your mercy sweet That You love me, Lord You love me! I know that others deserve it more And I don’t know what You give it for I am but a lost and lowly lamb But You accept me just as I am And love me, Lord, You love me Oh, You love me, You love me.

BECAUSE YOU LOVE Words and Music by Dan Holder © 1977 Daniel James Holder - All Rights Reserved Worldwide Lord, the pain You bore for me The blood that shed Your life Anguish drawn into Your face And all because You love.

Why d’You have to die like that For a wretched soul like me? But, now You’ve given life to me All because You love Lord, I thank You for saving me All because You love.

about

This album was originally recorded in 1979 as Dan Holder's solo project following 3 1/2 years of touring with "Tranquility" and fellow guitarist, Alan Pierce; but the album remained unreleased until now. The studio accidentally bulk-erased one of the 24-track studio master tapes, forcing Dan to shelve the project until he could finance the rerecording of the lost tracks.

Now, more than 30 years later, Dan Holder is back! Under the LarkinSong label, the surviving original tapes have been converted to digital, the lost songs have been rerecorded, and all tracks have been tweaked and updated to meet the current technology.

Dan Holder Music is a faith-based Christian music ministry that supports itself through concerts, recordings of Dan's songs, and the generosity of our donors. This digital album can be downloaded in hi-def format for less than half of the retail value of the CD. Any additional amount that the Spirit moves you to give will help keep this ministry going and take Dan's music into more homes and lives. We thank you for your support and generosity!

If you would prefer physical CDs for "Nevermore Alone" or "Tranquility," please visit www.DanHolder.com for more information. Our prayer is that the Holy Spirit will show you the Love of Jesus Christ as you listen to these songs and that you will be comforted and uplifted.
