Details:
This is the Fourth project by recording artist , Ray Owens.
As The Title states, these are songs that lift up Jesus and bring glory and honor to him. It is only by the grace of God that myself or anyone is allowed to write songs or sing so I pray that this collection of songs brings the listener closer to the LORD and that all are blessed by these messages in song.
11 songs on this recording were written by Ray Owens with the help of the LORD and I am thankful that he uses me in this manner and am grateful to be able to sing them as well. The song, "Who Put The Color In The Rose ", was written by my former pastor ; Rev, J.C. Hibbard, who pastored the Gospel Lighthouse Church in Dallas, Texas for many years before going home to be with the LORD. Also the medley, "I''m Going To Heaven / Heaven ", Brother Hibbard and Walt Mills used to sing together. On this recording producer Mike McClain and Ray Owens sing the duet. One of my favorite hymns of the Church is included as well, "Just Over In The Gloryland".
Most of the Music tracks were made by Tim Lovell of Lion Of Judah Music, Kingsport, TN with the exception of the first track was produced by Mike McClain of Garland Texas who also produced all the vocals.
Singer / Songwriter Ray Owens, was raised and has spent most of his life in the town of McKinney, Texas. He spent the years growing up in church and going to Gospel Singings. The love for Jesus was instilled in him at an early age. He always enjoyed good gospel music and attempted to play drums and guitar in his younger days. His love for music and ability to sing surley is inherited from his Mother, Mary Owens, as she and her sister sang in chuches also. The LORD started putting songs in his heart to write about 1982. Even though he had not learned to play an instument the words and melodies flowed through his soul. All the praise and honour goes to the LORD for it is only through Him that we live, move, and have our being. He soon learned to play the guitar with the LORD''S https://www.tradebit.comt is how the music ministry of Ray Owens began. He began singing in his home church, The Gospel Lighthouse of Dallas, TX and other churches in the area.
