And This Is Love (Ken Medema)

Here is one from the 1970's. Rick Powell was bringing the new electronic sounds of the Moog Synthesizer into the sanctuary with new songs as well as old hymns. Ken Medema was a fresh voice in Christian music, and a prolific songwriter. "And This Is Love" is one of my favorites from Ken Medema, and I love the arrangement that Rick Powell brings to it here.

Jesus Lover of My Soul (Ken Medema)

Beautiful arrangement of Charles Wesley's hymn, composed and performed by Ken Medema. How well I remember when I was a college student and Ken spent the week at Samford University for Christian Emphasis Week. Each day he not only offered special music for worship, but at the end of each chapel would go to the piano and sing whatever we had just heard in the chapel message. That has been one of Ken's trademark abilities.
