In 1994 before emigrating to the USA we had the opportunity to present with an international choir the intercessory musical Viens Seigneur Viens in the south of France.
The English version of the musical is available on YouTube here.
Last week a friend sent me a report on the upsurge of faith in Christ particularly amongst young people. In 1950 there were 50,000 evangelicals. Today it is estimated there are 1.000,000!
Bertrand and Marie Joy Chauliac who did the French translation explained to me that it was necessary to steer away from the word ‘Lord’ in France as they were proud of having done away with ‘Royalty’ in the Revolution
It seems our prayer from over 30 years ago is now being answered and the Lord Jesus is coming to take his place as the true King of France
In Ben’s new Album, Singing My Father’s Song he records an inspired new version of the widely known Lord Jesus We Enthrone You
Please listen to it here, and please support Ben if you have not already done so by purchasing the album.
In this version he includes a verse in French, learned when he as a teenager was part of that international choir.
The rhythmic refrain he has introduced has a ‘tongue’ The interpretation of that tongue is the subject of Part 2 of this blog.
