Since My Saviour Came

This song was written with the same philosophy of "Loving Like You Do," that a congregational song should be repetitive enough to be easy to learn and sing the first time through, and that the music which underlies the melody is where the interest lies-- so that it sounds like it's more complicated than it is.

So what would happen if you had an eight measure chord pattern, but a melody line which covered 11 measures? Every three measures the chord pattern would lay under the melody at a different spot.

Normally this would make for a very unpleasing experience as chords and melody disonantly disagree. But not with this song. I tried to make the melody universal enough to work over almost any chord it came across. :)

Please take a listen to it and tell me what you think. And I would so appreciate a link from your blog to www.jasonsilver.com to generate more interest in my music. Would you do that for me? Just make a post which says something like, "Jason Silver has been writing some songs and has made his mp3s available for free download here."

Thanks!
