“Saved, Through Faith” is a 16-bar blues that tells the simple gospel. This recording features electric guitar work by Buddy Whittington (formerly of John Mayall and the Blues Breakers) and harmonica by Gary Grammer. The real magic of the recording session for me was how the engineer, Jeff Ward, of Eagle Audio Recording directed the two players to set up each other’s solos. The lyrics are my understanding of the Gospel.
lyrics
No longer can I let evil dwell in me (2x)
By grace I’m saved, through faith and God’s mercy set me free!
My best behavior would send me straight to hell (2x)
For I’m a man who’s sinned in my heart and deeds as well
Jesus saved me from Adam’s and my sin (2x)
Sent by the Father to cleanse me, praise the Lord, I’m born again!
No longer can I let evil dwell in me (2x)
By grace I’m saved, through faith and God’s mercy
By grace I’m saved, through faith and God’s mercy set me
By grace I’m saved, through faith and God’s mercy set free!
