A friend of mine kept inviting me to church at Calvary in 1971 & one time after a Sunday night service we went to the beach & sitting on a cliff side looking at the ocean July 1971 my friend led me in the sinners prayer & I accpted Jesus into my heart & I felt weight like a football harness lift off my back & shoulders & I could breath again like I drank Holy Spirit drano, I could breath again. my friend thought I was having a flashback but it was real God with real Peace & I went to cavlary whenever the doors were open & sat on the grass just outside of the sliding doors when it was little in the bookstore and it was so unreligious, it was amazing & Lonnie Frisbee was our teacher & I have never been the same again. I felt so safe & belonging like I knew the people my whole life but we just met. Real God & Real Peace & Real Abundant life over half a century. Shine bright for Jesus, in church, outside, at school, at work, everywhere. Trust God & obey. Life may not be fair but God is goooood. Steve J Mel 😎🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I was a brand-new Christian in the Navy in 1973 in San Diego. A friend took me up to Calvary Chapel service on a Saturday & I stayed for the "afterglow." These Maranatha groups really helped me grow & start putting down roots. I had another friend who went to Melodyland. When you don't have a car, you go to church where your ride goes! Sometimes I would hitchhike up to Costa Mesa & just pray God would get me back to my ship in time, so I wasn't late. He always did.

I'M just today watching Jesus Revolution on Netflix. When I say the name on the Drum of the band I was like. OH MY..... Thats the band our youth leader from church took us to go see in Dallas. I grew up in Arlington Texas. I graduated high school in 1975. Not sure what year it was we went to see the band but I remember it Very Vividly. I think maybe it was 71 or 72. I think I just read the band formed in 1970. I'm sitting here thinking WOW. What happened. All those young people that were saved and changed during this "Jesus Revolution. Where are they now. How did the movement for God Grow more then it did. How was satan able to take over and destroy the US and it be in the mess it is in today. What will it take to get this country back on track in the direction of Christianity. I mean Real Christianity. People Really living for God. People Really loving one another and putting Christ First in our lives. How did I get so far away from the church. Sure I'm Christian and I know I'm saved by the blood of Christ. But do I worship God daily? No, no, I don't. I pray half-heartedly. What will it take to Get Back to Jesus. I just listened to one of Love Songs sing from that album, Welcome Back. I bought their album right after going to that concert. I listened to it constantly. I had every song so memorized. WOW. I want that feeling again. I want the US to see another Jesus Revolution. A real one. Everyone in the US and the world to experience it and for it to stay.

Love Song and Chuck Girard were such annointed men. Tools for Gods perfect Plan and His outpouring of the Holy Spirit!! My brother, was with Greg Laurie during those times. He played music with Calvary and jam sessions w Love Song. Worshipping in various tents, beaches and homes praising God for salvation. He came home after Woodstock, then accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior and then, led me to the Lord, at age 13. Over 50 yrs ago! 🙌 🙌 🙏 Love Chuck Smith, Greg Laurie, Love Song and Chuck Girard. I believe there is a powerful move of the Holy Spirit again, NOW. People get ready for the Bride of Christ for a repentance revival is rising up by the mighty power of God. I pray for you and your families and that when you hear the voice of God speak in your heart you listen. He is coming soon!🙌 Rom 8, John 3. ❤❤🙏

Your OPINION is duly noted and summarily dismissed because, well, it's just that and God says otherwise. I suggest you thrown that god you've created in your own image according to your own ways, will, and wisdom on the garbage heap where it belongs and surrender to the ONE & ONLY true God. I know what brought me here. It was to speak Truth into just that kind of idolatry, lies, and nonsense. This is EXACTLY the kind of Sentimental Emotionalism and Experientialism based theology that SO MUCH of the Calvary Chapel "Movement" is based on.

🇺🇲America, we need to go back to this. The passion, the anointing, the love of God in it's purest form. Through Jesus Christ, we need to repent of our sins and accept Jesus as Lord. I missed this movement being born in 1979, but God still had a plan for me and my life. He saved me in Highschool, I was a 19 year old Senior. But what these people experienced, I experienced the day I accepted him, I felt his arms literally embrace me, I felt the warmth prescence of the Lord. Everything was there, but it became new before my eyes. Now at 43 years old, I still serve, love, and accept as Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I am still on the battlefield knowing this world dont have too much time left. As for Lonnie, he was used by God tremendously, he was a great man of God, he had his struggles, but on his deathbed, it comforts me to know, that he repented of his sins. His spirit is with Jesus now, question is, what about you? What about me? We must get our own lives together before we run and judge someone else.

In the mid 70's during my time in the Navy I heard a testimony on the radio. The man had been through hell and back. Very tragic story. But, while high on drugs and being harassed by the squirrels in a park, he connected with God and got saved. His testimony went on while this song, Welcome Back, played in the background. Of course, I had to get the album. I had been a believer for a short time and was still not aware of the new music coming out. I got rid of 100 rock n roll albums and began listening to Jesus music. Thanks guys for being an important part of my nearly 50 years walking with Jesus.

Chuck, it was an honor to be able to not only see you guys a bunch of times, in fact one of the members of our band, ONE SPIRIT, set in for Jay on the bass, while you were on a reunion tour in Houston. We played a lot of Love Song tunes, as well as our own, so we really appreciated your music. I was saved right about the time you guys first came out, so I listened to your first album daily. I was asked to join One Spirit a year later and I played all through the Jesus Movement, from 1973 through 1992. It was a special time in our nation and I was glad to be a part of it. Of course, God is still alive and well, but there was just something special about that time period. Thanks very much for being there for us brother!

LOVE SONG CALVARY CHAPEL 1964 I don't even know if you even read these things. I was in Costa Mesa at Calvary Chapel. It was in 1964. I have searched for decades for any trace of you guys. This is the first result of that search in all these many years. I was there when you guys sang Welcome Back. You all were as skinny as rails as we all were for not eating. We were packed into the chapel hip to shoulder. There was standing room only. Quite literally hip to shoulder, front to back, wall to wall, from the edge of the platform to the doors in back. It was strangle beautiful as there was no contention despite my chin was almost on the shoulder of the person in front of me and the one in back of me on my shoulder. Listening once again I was brought to tears, sobbing. When I think of the decades between then and now, when I think of that magnificent move of God, when I think of the peace and weeping before God, I deeply, deeply miss those days, the feeling of belonging, the love, and the peace. Thank you for putting this out.

How many are here because of the "Jesus Revolution" movie?
A friend of mine kept inviting me to church at Calvary in 1971 & one time after a Sunday night service we went to the beach & sitting on a cliff side looking at the ocean July 1971 my friend led me in the sinners prayer & I accpted Jesus into my heart & I felt weight like a football harness lift off my back & shoulders & I could breath again like I drank Holy Spirit drano, I could breath again. my friend thought I was having a flashback but it was real God with real Peace & I went to cavlary whenever the doors were open & sat on the grass just outside of the sliding doors when it was little in the bookstore and it was so unreligious, it was amazing & Lonnie Frisbee was our teacher & I have never been the same again. I felt so safe & belonging like I knew the people my whole life but we just met. Real God & Real Peace & Real Abundant life over half a century. Shine bright for Jesus, in church, outside, at school, at work, everywhere. Trust God & obey. Life may not be fair but God is goooood. Steve J Mel 😎🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I was a brand-new Christian in the Navy in 1973 in San Diego. A friend took me up to Calvary Chapel service on a Saturday & I stayed for the "afterglow." These Maranatha groups really helped me grow & start putting down roots. I had another friend who went to Melodyland. When you don't have a car, you go to church where your ride goes! Sometimes I would hitchhike up to Costa Mesa & just pray God would get me back to my ship in time, so I wasn't late. He always did.
If you've fallen away, if you've left your first love, or if you've finally ready to surrender your heart to Jesus, Welcome Back!

I'M just today watching Jesus Revolution on Netflix. When I say the name on the Drum of the band I was like. OH MY..... Thats the band our youth leader from church took us to go see in Dallas. I grew up in Arlington Texas. I graduated high school in 1975. Not sure what year it was we went to see the band but I remember it Very Vividly. I think maybe it was 71 or 72. I think I just read the band formed in 1970. I'm sitting here thinking WOW. What happened. All those young people that were saved and changed during this "Jesus Revolution. Where are they now. How did the movement for God Grow more then it did. How was satan able to take over and destroy the US and it be in the mess it is in today. What will it take to get this country back on track in the direction of Christianity. I mean Real Christianity. People Really living for God. People Really loving one another and putting Christ First in our lives. How did I get so far away from the church. Sure I'm Christian and I know I'm saved by the blood of Christ. But do I worship God daily? No, no, I don't. I pray half-heartedly. What will it take to Get Back to Jesus. I just listened to one of Love Songs sing from that album, Welcome Back. I bought their album right after going to that concert. I listened to it constantly. I had every song so memorized. WOW. I want that feeling again. I want the US to see another Jesus Revolution. A real one. Everyone in the US and the world to experience it and for it to stay.

Love Song and Chuck Girard were such annointed men. Tools for Gods perfect Plan and His outpouring of the Holy Spirit!! My brother, was with Greg Laurie during those times. He played music with Calvary and jam sessions w Love Song. Worshipping in various tents, beaches and homes praising God for salvation. He came home after Woodstock, then accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior and then, led me to the Lord, at age 13. Over 50 yrs ago! 🙌 🙌 🙏 Love Chuck Smith, Greg Laurie, Love Song and Chuck Girard. I believe there is a powerful move of the Holy Spirit again, NOW. People get ready for the Bride of Christ for a repentance revival is rising up by the mighty power of God. I pray for you and your families and that when you hear the voice of God speak in your heart you listen. He is coming soon!🙌 Rom 8, John 3. ❤❤🙏

Your OPINION is duly noted and summarily dismissed because, well, it's just that and God says otherwise. I suggest you thrown that god you've created in your own image according to your own ways, will, and wisdom on the garbage heap where it belongs and surrender to the ONE & ONLY true God. I know what brought me here. It was to speak Truth into just that kind of idolatry, lies, and nonsense. This is EXACTLY the kind of Sentimental Emotionalism and Experientialism based theology that SO MUCH of the Calvary Chapel "Movement" is based on.
🇺🇲America, we need to go back to this. The passion, the anointing, the love of God in it's purest form. Through Jesus Christ, we need to repent of our sins and accept Jesus as Lord. I missed this movement being born in 1979, but God still had a plan for me and my life. He saved me in Highschool, I was a 19 year old Senior. But what these people experienced, I experienced the day I accepted him, I felt his arms literally embrace me, I felt the warmth prescence of the Lord. Everything was there, but it became new before my eyes. Now at 43 years old, I still serve, love, and accept as Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I am still on the battlefield knowing this world dont have too much time left. As for Lonnie, he was used by God tremendously, he was a great man of God, he had his struggles, but on his deathbed, it comforts me to know, that he repented of his sins. His spirit is with Jesus now, question is, what about you? What about me? We must get our own lives together before we run and judge someone else.
In the mid 70's during my time in the Navy I heard a testimony on the radio. The man had been through hell and back. Very tragic story. But, while high on drugs and being harassed by the squirrels in a park, he connected with God and got saved. His testimony went on while this song, Welcome Back, played in the background. Of course, I had to get the album. I had been a believer for a short time and was still not aware of the new music coming out. I got rid of 100 rock n roll albums and began listening to Jesus music. Thanks guys for being an important part of my nearly 50 years walking with Jesus.

"And as they started to play The Spirit .........just touched my heart." Thank you Jesus. Thank you for Chuck and thank you for Love Song. Welcome Back is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. I have often felt like I missed out because I was barely born when the Jesus Movement started. One of my friends was born blind in the 60s, and got completely saved and healed at a Cavalry Chapel Crusade. I know I am alive for now and Jesus I/we are calling out to you again for Revival in our time. Revival that brings the lost back - in their millions across the globe for your Glory and your purposes.
Such a peaceful and meaningful song thank you for your love father 🙏🏻✞
I watch Jesus Revolution! I cried, everytime I think of the of the movie, and Jesus I cry.
I was born again at this church with Pastor Chuck back in the mid 70's, I was blessed to study under him and Greg Laurie for 7 years, until the Lord moved me up to Northern California...the Lord's Holy Spirit has always been and will be on this church, out of this church came so many ministers, teachers, pastors, evangelist, prophets...all to the Glory of YHWH...Miss you Pastor Chuck, I will see you soon in Daddy-God's house...PTL and MARANATHA!!!

Been a while since no posts, so... Here is my post and tribute. Grew up going to Calvary Chapel and remembering the great songs of Love Song, Chuck Girard, Mustard Seed Faith, Keith Green and many others! Young teen at the time, but it kept my faith strong to this day at 55 years old. I so miss those beautiful days! May our Father/Creator bless you all!
John 14:15💝 “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.”
I played this song over and over when I discovered it back in '82 . And just discovered it today again and it affects my heart today just the way it did then. Such a tugging and a drawing my heart back to Jesus in a powerful way . Thank you so much .
These guys music helped change my life. Loved those years

What a GREAT GREAT song... my cassette in India (1981) wore out from playing this song over and over... even after all these decades when driving around in Brisbane, Australia, whenever this song comes there is such a sweet anointing on it.
Chuck, it was an honor to be able to not only see you guys a bunch of times, in fact one of the members of our band, ONE SPIRIT, set in for Jay on the bass, while you were on a reunion tour in Houston. We played a lot of Love Song tunes, as well as our own, so we really appreciated your music. I was saved right about the time you guys first came out, so I listened to your first album daily. I was asked to join One Spirit a year later and I played all through the Jesus Movement, from 1973 through 1992. It was a special time in our nation and I was glad to be a part of it. Of course, God is still alive and well, but there was just something special about that time period. Thanks very much for being there for us brother!
Chuck Girard is such an anointed singer. Love all his songs. Beautiful song
So fantastic… My wife and I and some friends went to see Jesus revolution Saturday evening, I believe it’s a real blessing to the church hopefully if anything it will give us spiritual power to see the possibility for another awakening to see revival in the church and to see unbelievers get saved… They can’t get revived but they could be awakened and be saved… I remember when I first got saved in the early 80s one of the first groups I started listening to was Lovesong… Then I followed Chuck… You!! still am still listening to that stuff and this song is so powerful because it says welcome back to the things we once believed… So many times I hear believer saying well we can’t go back we can’t go back we need to look ahead… Sometimes we need to go back if we’re falling away from our love for the Lord if it’s growing cold if we were stale and dormant we need to look back at our first love we need to go back to what we first believe because it’s still truth and then God can take us and he can move ahead and move us on
Sooo precious! Love Song was instrumental in making me a worshiper. I came across this video in doing a research project on the genre of contemporary Christian music. Thank you Love Song for opening the doors of worship to a struggling 17 year old back in 1978.

Chuck, thank you for blazing the trail in Christian worship. I listened to your albums over and over and over. My college years during the early 70's, was filled with your music playing in our dorm rooms. Such a blessing and great memories I will cherish forever.
After all those years and Chuck is still moved thinking about it. I was a prodigal son who came home in 1974. Father said, "Welcome back."

This song takes me back to Jesus 73 in Front Royal Virginia.. Great memories. We slept in a tent there. Thousands of people.

I’m 70. Havnt heard this in along time. The tears are streaming. Thnx for the memories
Love Song was the beginning for me to start listening to gospel music. I even started my own gospel music group and “Welcome Back” was the first song we played and sang.
This group's songs have meant so much to me. I renewed my life in Christ in this era and they were a huge part of my renewed love for the Lord.
I remember them so well. I still have Chuck Girard's first album . The music helped me so much in my life. Glad to see them all together. Are they still alive now in 2023?

What a great great great song... it so blessed my young heart when growing up in India as a teenager; I still play if so often when driving in my S Class Benz and can't help stop singing to it and blessing the Lord.

LOVE SONG - Welcome Back 1964 - COSTA MESA CALVARY CHAPEL Those incredible harmonies, the beautiful lilting tenor voice, the harmonies wrapping around my mind and heart. Finally, finally finding a place where I did not have to worry about who I was and who I had been. Such beauty in the song and the songs, the weeping sobbing for finally finding a way home. Finally finding a place of peace.
