PROCLAIMER (SONG OF THE WEEK)
(This song was written around 1987 when Margaret Cloud (now Searcy) was beginning her recording career. Ellen and I were praying with her, and a phrase from a prayer stuck with her to mark her first project and serve as title and theme of this song. She then allowed me to write the music, and JD Miller arranged and produced the album. Within a couple of years, Pauline Mummert (now Williams) was also doing a first album and chose the song as part of it. Also, the Come Alive Singers of Cincinnati Bible College in 1989 did a recording of it. I wrote the arrangement of both of those recordings. This is a mashup of the three recordings, all on cassette tape, and not in the same key. Nonetheless, it is a powerful challenge to me, so I share it with you.)
(intro. Pauline)
(Margaret) Don't let my lips be silent
Don't let me speak in works alone
But tell of your lovingkindness
With powerful words that pierce the soul
(Come Alive) Why should I be silent
When the world is crying out in pain?
Empty hearts are listening
To hear me calling out His name
(Pauline) Proclaimer! Telling my world that Jesus lives!
Proclaimer! Speaking with power His Spirit gives!
(Come Alive) To let Him touch through me
To make the blinded eyes to see His glory
(Margaret) Proclaimer! Telling my world that Jesus lives!
Proclaimer! Speaking with power His Spirit gives!
(Pauline) To let Him touch through me
(Come Alive) To those who need Him desperately
Proclaimer!
(Margaret) Why should my joy be hidden
Why should I keep it locked inside
(Pauline) I'm not afraid to tell it
Powerful words that bring such life
(Come Alive) Why should I be silent
When the world is crying out in pain?
Empty hearts are listening
To hear me calling out His name
(Pauline) Proclaimer! Telling my world that Jesus lives!
(Margaret) Proclaimer! Speaking with power His Spirit gives!
(Come Alive) To let Him touch through me
To make the blinded eyes to see His glory
(Margaret) Proclaimer! Telling my world that Jesus lives!
(Come Alive) Proclaimer! Speaking with power His Spirit gives!
(Pauline) To let Him touch through me
To those who need Him desperately
(Come Alive) Proclaimer! Telling my world that Jesus lives!
(Margaret) Proclaimer! Speaking with power His Spirit gives!
(Pauline) Proclaimer! Oh, I'm a proclaimer! Telling my world that Jesus lives!
(Pauline and Come Alive) Proclaimer! Speaking with power His Spirit gives!
I'm a proclaimer! I'm a proclaimer! I'm a proclaimer!
