Jesus Waving The Stars And Stripes"

...is
a new, patriotic song by the gifted songwriter/singer, Jim Owen,
who continues to bring forth his brilliance in country music to
a fever pitch in every bit of new material (and the old
classics, too) which he tackles. What better way to be patriotic than to write and sing a song
about the current war so many are talking about....than by
focusing on the battlefied in Iraq where so many are dying. Yet,
in this instance, Jesus Christ comes forth in blazing Glory,
"...waving the Stars & Stripes," ...and saving a group of
soldiers, as they pray to God on the battlefield for divine
deliverance. |
The story goes: These soldiers are pinned down on a mountain in
that far-a-way land of Iraq (which the Bible speaks about more
than any area other than Israel), and one soldier beside his
leader cries out that death is nigh,
with ammunition
depleted, and no hope for tomorrow. But when they acknowledge
that: "The only prayer we have is to pray," the tide changes in
their behalf as a fog covers their escape route to safety.
Picture it: "Jesus
Christ waving the Stars and Stripes!"
A patriotic song indeed of true deliverance by the only One who
can save us, here delivered in musical fashion recalling that
other GREAT song: GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY, done in a most
compelling arrangement.( |
