I do like MercyMe a lot, mostly because their music was some of Micah's favorite music. This song is important to me. John Thurber, the man who baptized me in the frigid waters of the Jefferson Academy swimming pool at Bible Conference in 1971, introduced our youth groups to this old hym and taught us to sing it with harmony and reverence. These beautiful words make me cry sometimes.
Bart Millard's version is quite lovely. He captures the passion of the words wonderfully well.
Enjoy.
