It was actually written by Buddy Greene and Mark Lowry but I truly believe that Michael does this song better than anyone-bar none. God has blessed him with a tremendous voice! Merry CHRISTmas to one and all!!!
thanks for all the info. i first learned about this song in 1995 because i had to sing it in our christmas concerts. michael's rendition of the song in his cd is very powerful, superb!!! i just fell in love with it.
Every year at this Christmas time, I come here to listen to my favorite song by Micheal.. Him and Mark Lowry sing it the best hands down,.,. Enjoy you Christmas and God Bless,
Love ya Michael! You were not only just the first one to ever do this song, but the only one ever to deliver this song, at this level and powerful magnitude! ... Rick Sibbett
To appreciate the version that made this song popular you need to listen to track on Michael's self title album. I heard this song for the first time back in 1992/1993 on that album and knew this song was special...it absolutely grabs you. It wasn't until about 6 years later when this song spread like wildfire. Thank you to Mark Lowry for such an important peice of work and to Michael English for recogonizing it.
This song Fully Illuminates who Christ Jesus really is ... THE GREAT I AM in FLESH GOD iS SO AWESOME!!! The Lyrics 2 this song are truely Inspired by God
the song was written by mark lowry in 1984. buddy greene put the music to it a few years later. although this was the "first" rendition of it i had heard (when i bought michaels first cd in '92) and one of my favorites no less.... mark lowry (with the gaither vocal bands guy penrod and david phelps) does a phenomenal job with this song he wrote 20+ years earlier
