I used to listen to these in the early eighties. Then christian music went mainstream and got weak. This music is calming, soothing, thoughtful, and promotes meditation in the spirit. Praise God for his strength and comfort in these last days. Look up Christians! Your redemption draws nigh!

This is the year I got saved and these were the worship songs we sang. True praise music.

I was Born Again at age 14 in 1974 when this album first came out. I listened to it over and over. I learned how to worship the Lord singing the words to each song.

I accepted the Lord in 1971, at 9, but did not really become a disciple until 1983. It was a little after I discovered these blessed songs!! I still listen to them frequently!

This took me back to the most wonderful pure worship at Calvary Chapel in late 60's and early 70's. It was a time of a great move of God in my life..

Walked into a coffee shop today and heard this music playing - started to well up in tears. This is the album that Jesus used to mold my heart when I was fifteen. I hadn't heard it since the late 70's.

I'm reminded of my family's early Christian days when our head of the family would play this in the car as we go to church and places, not a hint then that he would be going ahead of us to be with his Lord unexpectedly.

Am I the only one feeling the 70s christian music

Same here, was a child but it was like I’d never heard beautiful music or ever had a cool drink of fresh water ever before to a parched plant. My eyes were truly opened. Went to the most wonderful celebration if ever seen in my young life. A beautiful celebration of worship and praise! Icthus in Wilmore was so welcoming and wonderful, people full of love like I’d never experienced ever before! God’s Love IS LOVE.

+Matt Collazo I like Maranatha music. Most of there cds are from the 80s and you can buy them cheap from amazon.

My older brother used to let me go into his room and play records on his stereo. I would stare into this album cover for hours and be amazed at this new sound of worship. I later became an advertising art director and now wonder why the photographer didn't remove that log on the lower left of the road. LOL! But seriously this album was the foundation of my earliest days of worship and my taste of the Jesus movement.

Those albums are precious to me and out of print and I learned early on that people don't take care of your property as well as you do.

PARABÉNS PELO TRABALHO PERFEITO IRMÃ

This is one of those captured moments on a recording that is Spirit filled.

🎉🎉🎉❤ how sweet

I don't mind sharing the music, but what I find interesting today is that most young people especially are into that hip hop style of Christian music and not so much the older style which I love, I'm an accomplished pianist and pretty versatile in my music but some of the contemporary music today is too far out there both black gospel and heavy metal stuff, I don't even listen to it anymore

And then, after having learned all that, you have to learn this further thing, Humility----to put a seal upon your lips and forget what you have done. After you have been kind, after Love has stolen forth into the world and done it's beautiful work, go back into the shade again and say nothing about it. Love hides even from itself. Love waives even self-satisfaction. "Love vaunteth not itself,is not puffed up" One Corinthians Thirteen "The Greatest Thing in the World" Henry Drummond

+Matt Collazo Hey, Brother. I'm not the one who posted this song, but I posted a reply that apparently did not post. First of all, thanks for your testimony. Praise the Lord!!! This song is very old school. It's from the early days of praise and worship music. Things were beautifully simple back then. This album was put out by Maranatha Music, and they have a whole slew of albums available on CD. Watch out for the Praise Strings albums, though; if you're looking for vocals, the strings albums are just orchestrations of the songs that are on other Maranatha albums with vocals. The strings are very beautiful and peaceful, but if that's not what you're looking for, make sure you read the album titles carefully. Vineyard Music is another one that put out a bunch of really good praise and worship music. They have a more recent album called "Discover Roots Worship" that has a classic rock/country rock sound and some really good lyrics. We use some of those songs in our church worship. A couple of more current groups are Hillsong and Passion Praise (not sure of the exact name of that one). They have some very worshipful music. I hope these help and that they provide you with hours of blessing.

Sunami Carpenter No, it was recorded in a small home studio in Huntington Beach, CA. I was there and was one of the few girls in the Maranatha Music Singers. (We weren't called that then. We were all in different bands.)

Are there other early Maranatha albums a lot like this one? This one has a profound simplicity! The other early Maranatha I’ve heard is good too, but I’m hoping to find another simple one like this one!

Look for Maranatha 1, 2, 3, and 4. Maybe 5 as well. Those were the first ones. Then they went all over the place with Maranatha Strings (which were instrumental versions of the sung pieces) Maranatha Singers and others, also numbered, rather like franchise movies, LOL!)

There is a very amazing thing about this song, In year 1975, it was translated to be sung in Brazil by Pastor Jaime Kemp. He is a missionary from the United States who arrived in Brazil in 1967. Together with his wife, Judith Kemp, Pastor Jaime Kemp founded the “Vencedores por Cristo” something like Overcomers for Christ Mission in 1968. This mission focuses on youth discipleship, biblical training, and evangelism through music and the arts in general. Over the years, the teams have been renewed, and they are still active today. You can check out the version sung in Portuguese Brazil at the link below (Yes, in Brazil we don't speak Spanish, we speak Portuguese)😉 kzread.info/dash/bejne/oaaF0Zurg8Kxgbw.html
