FREEDOM ROAD - Len Magee




Title:
FREEDOM ROAD - Len Magee

Description:
THIS UPLOAD IS A TRIBUTE TO LEN MAGEE. In the eighties, as a young Christian, Len's music had helped me grow in my spiritual life. His songs are like good sermons, his lyrics are testimonies of God's peace, love,joy and power, enriching to the listener, empowering and encouraging. The following is adapted from his official website, written by his very own sister: Len Magee, Christian singer and song writer,lives on the Gold Coast of Australia, where he and his wife, Heather, pastor a small fellowship. Although Len produced most of his music between 1973 and 1981, many people have still not forgotten the impact his ministry had on their spiritual lives. His music became well known in Christian circles around the English speaking world. God took a suicidal, hippy drug addict and turned him into a man who lives to preach the Gospel. The seven year old child sent from his home and family to the other side of the world where he was raised in an institution, became, through the grace of God, a minister, teacher and pastor, as well as a loving husband and father. The deep pain and great joys of Len's life resonate through the words of his songs, which are still quoted today; but more importantly, his honesty allows God's Spirit to communicate deep truths to the listener. His is the kind of music that is easy to listen to and impossible to forget. Whilst it will warm the hearts of those of us old enough to remember it from the first time around, the discerning younger listeners will also find it engaging. (Adapted - Lesley R Wells) PLEASE VISIT LEN'S OFFICIAL SITE: http://www.lenmagee.com/ Freedom Road 1 Freedom Road was calling me and all my friends The sun and the breeze upon your face But I find that Freedom Road ain't got no end Just lots of souls not going any place So I'm leaving on the nine forty-five I hope that train is gonna be on time Then I guess I'll have to try and hitch a ride My dreams have gone, the weather's not so fine Chorus Freedom Road, oh heavy load And there's such an awful price to pay So I'm telling you my friend This road has got no end It's lead me and so many folk astray So I'm turning back to find some other way 2 It's been said that all that glitters is not gold And my friends spoke of gaining inner wealth But when I was tired and hungry, freezing cold I found that I was running from myself So I'm leaving on the nine forty-five I just can't wait to get up on that train I think of home, my bed so warm and dry I'm getting tired of standing in the rain Chorus 3 A man gave me a Bible yesterday I sat right down and read it on the road I got peace in finding Jesus is the Way And somewhere back I left my heavy load So I'm leaving on the nine forty-five And I ain't coming back no more I've discovered that Jesus is alive And He's the one my soul's been looking for Chorus Freedom Road, oh heavy load And there's such an awful price to pay So I'm telling you my friend This road has got no end It's lead me and so many fold astray But I'm glad I found that Jesus is the Way

The Morning Comes 1 I cry to Jesus, O but it seems He doesn't hear my prayer Is this real or just a dream? Or is He really there? And then the morning comes And then the morning comes And then the morning comes 2 I get so weary, and day by day I sink into despair And life grows dreary, and so I say Does my God really care? 3 When in the dark I lose my song I also lose my way O whisper Lord that I belong And turn my night to day.
