I was sitting in a doctor's office waiting room and a bible verse popped into my head, that says "Go ye therefore, and teach all nation, baptizing them in the name of the father, and of the son, and of the holy ghost". I have Samsung notes on my phone, and so I wouldn't lose my train of thought, I started writing and this is what I came up with. Lord I Want To Be A Witness https://soundcloud.com/ronniefields/lord-i-want-to-be-a-witnessLord I Want To Be A Witness Lord I want to be a witness, tell what you’ve done for me. You brought me out of darkness, into a life eternally. Let me tell about your sacrifice, and the price you had to pay. Lord I want to be a witness, to tell about that rapture day. Lord you know I am a vessel, that you molded with your clay. I was broke in many pieces, you put together in your way. You made me that I can testify, about the goodness of your grace, Lord let me be a witness, I give to you my hands in praise. Cho. Lord I want to be a witness, let me tell about your love. I want to tell how you filled my heart, with your blessings from above. Let me tell about salvation, and how you pardoned my sin Lord I want to be a witness, until you come to earth again. Lord I want to be a witness, let me tell about your love. I want to tell how you filled my heart, with your blessings from above. Let me tell about salvation, and how you pardoned my sin Lord I want to be a witness, until you come to earth again. _CMPFBF2.STY Campfire, finge ev16 4/4 3502 Bass, Electric, Nashville Radio Ballad A ev16 075 Real Drums: Nashville southern 1856:Cello, BackgroundPopCountry ev 085 1592:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm, Pop Believe ev 016 065 Tascam DP32sd Multitrack Recorder Cakewalk Sonar Home Studio

This has a Kris Kristofferson feel to it. A really strong vibe in there.
Nicely done.
I could hear the band kicking in on the second verse. But that's minor issue of differing production values.
I enjoyed the song.... nice modulation and loved the ending surprise chords.
I'm always careful what I ask for..... He might give you what you ask but not in the way that you're thinking.

Guitar Hacker, that was intentional on the second verse, I brought in the bass and cello, and added the drums and piano on the chorus:

Ronnie,
This is a pretty country-like tune. Herb has it right in that Kris Kristofferson would have done this well . . . could also hear Johnny Cash doing this as well. Your vocal, though, does it just fine . . . heartfelt and compelling. Nice production and mix overall. Well done!
All my best to you,
Deej

Ronnie, this song is a real blessing. You are really on a roll and I love the stuff you've been coming up with. I was very sick here a while back and your lyrics really spoke to me, just a wonderful write. The arrangements were great, though I wish the cello had a little more volume. The ending you came up with was great.

Ronnie...I agree with the Kristofferson reference...the melody is stunning...simple and beautiful...great use of BiaB as you progressed into the full track...you had me with the cello and the modulation is so appropriate in a gospel tune...this is my favorite from you so far and I've loved some of your other stuff...well done brother and PTL!!

Lovely.
Your guitar sounds so good with the cello and piano RT’s.
Your heartfelt vocals present the lyric very well.
The key change works nicely.
Well done,
J&B
