And from the guy who composed that rendition of it, with the "my chains are gone" piece:


The worship pastor I play for, David Parker, was Chris Tomlin's roommate at Texas A&M. Dave told me the other day, "Chris can't play but about 4 or 5 chords, but he knows how to put them together into amazing worship songs." I thought that was pretty funny.
“Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.”

Where were you in '72? This tune was all over the radio as the Eagles debut single from their eponymous first album. Composed by Glen Frey and neighbor Jackson Brown it was the kick off tune for my last summer as a long haired hippie college student.
