This is a demo recording but by popular demand I am making this available before the actual album is recorded later this year.  This song (hopefully) speaks for itself… and while many have felt rejected by Jesus or God… the rejection really comes from people who either should know better… or don't really know at all. 

Share the song around, listen or download it for free or if you want to help fund the revolution purchase the track at the price of your choosing. Cheers!

 
I Thought it was Good News 
by Chris Falson 
(c) Leather Chair Songs 2014 

There'll be no end to the holy wars 
while the one in the right is wielding the sword 
in the name of the Lord 

yeah a lot of blood has spilled over this living word 
But it seems as if nobody ever heard 
a word he say 

I thought is was good news 

When the ones in the pulpit are merely fans 
Not friends nor lovers of the son of man 
How can they understand his plans 

The Kingdom gates no longer open wide 
How many bruised and broken will be denied 
And have to stay on the outside 

I thought it was good news 

Yeah sometimes I wonder if we're talking bout the same man 
Turned water into wine and healed the deaf and blind 
And stepped into the gutter to love this heart if mine 

I can read it in Red it says anyone 
Any woman and man born under the sun 
come on run to me 

I don't see any barrier or stipulation 
about color or race or orientation 
its an open invitation

 
released 23 April 2014 
Drum loops from David Raven, Tambourine from Danny Ybarra, guitars, bass
and very tired (on tour) voice from moi
