Stephen Hurd
From the CD O That Men Would Worship (2012)
Introspective ballad on how complicated life could be “if it had not been for grace.”
Stephen Hurd sounds delivered from a mighty trial that took its toll as he ruminates wearily but thoughtfully on the saving power of grace. At the key change, background vocalists appear like guardian angels, their voices swelling to lift the dynamics and Hurd’s spirit.
