Description

This is a second version of the song called "Seek Ye First", which I posted few days ago. On the first version, I was using midi for the instrumental part. But on this version Mr. Atwood have played the instrumental part on his guitar and added some harmonies for me. Hope you enjoy listening to this piece!

Special thanks to Tom Atwood for the great guitar tunes, harmonies and the final mixing. Thank you very much Mr. Atwood!

# on this song i'm using my real voice. on the last one, i edited my vocal very much. and this vocal is my real voice.

Lyrics

Seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness
And all these things shall be added unto you
Hallelu, Hallelujah!

Man shall not live by bread alone
But by every word
That proceeds from the mouth of God
Hallelu, Hallelujah!

Ask and it shall be given unto you
Seek and ye shall find
Knock and the door shall be opened unto you
Hallelu, Hallelujah!

	Very touching piece for me, for many reasons. There are many things a 15- year-old could doing, but you have chosen to spend time making music, with your heart. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this, Jemimah. Check out my latest song called Keep Looking for Jesus (MJRF)

A well done hymn...
or praise song needs to not only be musically well
done. But it needs to have a heart attitude of reverence and praise toward God that is also
communicated in the singing. This can not be
manufactured or faked in my opinion. This song is
a beautiful example of a technically well performed
praise song and one that reaches out and
expresses a genuine spirit of worship toward God.

Thanks for sharing this.

Sorry Jem
that this piece got bombed off the weekly picks. It became
the victim of a serial bomber during a widespread attack
that left almost no song unscathed. But, you should be
very happy and proud of all the comments from Peter G,
drakonis, Hammhock and others. I believe people were
genuinely moved by your work. Congratulations to you!

Very moving...
One of my good friends is in an absolutely ROCKING
gospel group, and I bet he's going to love the moving
simplicity of this...

I had to go back and listen to some of your other tracks to
get why people have been so surprised (stunned?) by this
one...Now I get it...

Now, what I will say, and I hope I get this out right, is that
the pure, unaffected quality of your vocal IS a strength,
and I would definitely vote for you working with your own
voice...bringing to bear the good ear that you evidently
have for harmony and arrangement...

AND, I would also suggest that you consider finding a
good vocal coach...NOT because you don't have a nice
voice, but because you DO, and I get a feel here that you
could learn to sort of "relax into" your own voice in a
sense, learn to breathe with it, in a way that will bring
more YOU to the song...if that makes sense...Good vocal
coaches can sort of open up the world of your own voice
to you...Gotta pick the right one, though, ask around, find
out who's supportive...

I hope you get from this what I'm trying to put out, which
is intended as real support for you coming out from
behind the music and shining more and more...

This is pretty cool...

Great work
Great job, White Hawks. Every summer I lead the singing
at our church's "Kids Camp," and this is a favorite of mine
and the kids, too.

You have a sincere quality in your voice. The guitar work
and vocal harmonies are also well-done.

And thanks for your kind comments on my "Hey Martin
Luther" piece.

And your "album art" is just fabulous!

Praise The Lord
I just love the texture of the harmonies. This is one of the best
songs on Macjams because it's about the great Prince of Peace! Do
you minister in your church? If there's an opportunity to do so,
take it. It's a great honor to serve in that capacity. It's also eternal.

Remember, what we do for Christ will last.

May God richly bless you.
