Terry Clark Only Believe CD

ONLY BELIEVE can be a cliché just like JESUS SAVES, which was just that when I was a boy growing up in the environment of church and a Christian home. That happens when something is repeated a lot. REVIVAL is another term that became a cliché. But revival is exactly what I would like to propose for these nuggets of foundational truth. Those words were used in abundance because they were the boiled-down freedom cries of a common people who had discovered that the power of God to transform mankind had been made accessible to them. That power is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That Gospel is really good news to the weary, the oppressed, the rejected; and is received, not attained through ritual and dogma. God’s love is for every person who will believe on the One He sent, Jesus.“This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” – John 6:29Produced by: Roby DukeRecorded at: Big Blue, SeattleMixed by: Michael Lord, SeattleMastered by: DigiPrep, HollywoodVocals: Terry Clark, Nancy Clark, Roby DukeChoir: Imani Fellowship Choir, director: Sam TownsendKeys, pianos, B3: Terry Clark, Gary Verrill, Nick MansonGuitar, arrangements, programming: Roby DukeAll songs: Terry Clark ©Clark Brothers KeepersExcept Softly And Tenderly by Will Thompson, 1847-1909ONLY BELIEVE (song)Traditional Spanish translation & arrangement by: Hermanos GutierrezRequinto guitar, percussion & vocals: Arturo GutierrezAccoustic bass & vocals: Jose Luis GutierrezCover design: John ShafferCover photo of Milky Way: Steven Lee, Anglo-Australian ObservatoryCover photo of Terry: Jim SiscoOther photos: NASA & NASA Space Science Data CenterNeptune 77-076!-01N, Dr. Bradford A Smith, Team Leader, Voyager 2 ProjectEarth & Moon 89-084B-10B, Dr Michael JS Belton, Team Leader, Galileo ProjectJupiter & Moon PhotoDiscTerry ClarkTerry Clark’s voice and keyboards were first heard in the early ‘70s in Texas in The Children of Faith, then in Europe in the mid ‘70s as a member of the live version of the band LIBERATION SUITE. His voice has been a regular part of Maranatha!Music’s productions since the late 70’s, including 7 years of Promise Keepers projects.Terry’s music is designed to direct the listener to an intimate contact with the heavenly Father, and his life has been a process of developing that communication. His spiritual roots run deep in generations of the Gospel message and music, but Terry broke out of that safe bubble and ventured into the world to sample its smorgasbord of experiences. Twenty-something and burned out, he pushed away from the world’s reality, humiliated to be a human being. In that condition he heard a familiar voice, it was Terry’s childhood friend, Jesus.As Jesus revealed the love He has for human beings, it transformed Terry. Now he understood the real reason for being a part of the human race. He was restored as his dependencies shifted to the One who had answered the question: Is there a reason for this life? A life of intimacy with his Savior and “Big Brother” began. His songs are simply windows through which one can see and participate in that private, personal relationship.Terry’s first recordings, WELCOME &MELODIES, were contemporary Christian albums on Good News Records/Word and contained several Christian Music radio “hits” in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s including Ugadano Thawanu Maija and Jesus Is At The Wheel.Terry saw the desperate need in the world for more intimate contact with God and realized that the Lord had challenged him to open those windows into his one-on-One personal relationship with Jesus. Those songs and Terry’s personal ministry have led the way to that same intimacy for many and were recorded on albums entitled LIVING WORSHIP and LET’S WORSHIP. “More than ever people are feeling the need to deeply know God. If we ignore the inner cry for intimate communication with God, we become hard of hearing, unable to recognize His voice when He speaks to us.”
