Lord of My Life (Stage Version)

Words by Eric Gwin. Music by Jon Owen, Jennifer Puryear, Rob Williams, Johnny Brown, and Eric Gwin.

Arrangement by Jim Ingerson, Jeremy Vest, Erich Burbage, Steven Cannon, and Eric Gwin.

The Story Behind the Song

This is the only Q song to be written by all 5 original members together, and its also one of our most popular concert songs. During the 7 years of Q, this song changed about every 6 months, and it is the only one of our songs to be performed in EVERY concert that we ever did.

When the final line-up of Q was putting together stuff in the studio, we felt the need to record the version we were performing at the time. This arrangement really showcases the talents of each member of the group at the time. I especially like the soulful vocal workout that Steven Cannon performs at the end. Unbelievable!

The Lyrics

Let's get excited about Jesus!
Let's start praising the Lord!
Let's exalt the Spirit
and read from his word!
Its an exciting time
that we can spend in fellowship!
Its a time for singing!
A song of praise flows from our lips!
So Praise the Lord...He's the Lord of my life!

Let's get excited about family
the family of God!
Exalting others in love,
encouraging all!
Its a time of happiness
and its a time of joy!
Its a source of strength for
every man, woman, girl and boy!
So praise the Lord...He is the Lord of my life!

We're praising Jesus Christ,
God's only son!
We're gonna praise his holy name
until our lives are done!
We're gonna live for him
and glorify his name
because loving us
is why he came!
So praise the Lord...He's the Lord of my life!

I'm leaning on the Lord of my Life!
