Very nice Roy. What lap steel are you playing it on, and where did you get the backing track? Thanks, George

Hi and thanks George!
I used BIAB for backing there, Here's a pic
of the Lap.

Now tell me about the steel it sets on.

I love that song. Mark Lowry wrote the lyrics, and Buddy Greene came up with those sus chords. Well played, Roy!

Thanks for interest and comments.
Joe, the instrument under my Lap Steel is a Resonator steel that I made a long time ago and kept upgrading throughout the years.
Stephen, thanks for adding the particulars on this beautiful song Mark composed.

I enjoyed that song very much while providing piano service to the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove CA years ago. Nice to hear it again.
