Come Home | Written by Grant Steinweg | Conducted by Winner Silvestre
This piece was performed by Andrews University Singers as part of my friend Winner Silvestre's graduate choral conducting recital in October 2020. It is a first person account of the prodigal son and his experience of running away and coming home.
This piece was my first attempt at writing an original composition for choir. I wrote it in the spring of 2018. As I look back on it, there's a lot of things I will never do the same way again, and yet, I believe the piece has a beautiful message that needs to get out.
Lyrics:
I thought you were trying to limit me
And your restrictions seemed a burden
So I asked ungratefully for money (oh, I didn't even thank you)
That should have fell to me when you had died
Then I left you for a new country
Where I spent my inheritance on so much
Vanity (vanity, vanity, etc.)
Famine struck in the land
Feeding swine was the only job I could find
My friends had all left me, I'd squandered my money
The scraps that the pigs ate looked good to my tummy
Yes, I was the slave of a heathen man in a foreign land
Then I came to myself,
Recalling all the love my father lavished on me (therefore I chose to return)
I arose and went to my father's house
And when I was yet a great distance off
He ran and embraced me, saying,
"I thought you were dead! But now you're alive (again)!"
Then he told his trusted servants,
"Put the best robe on his shoulders!
Put a ring on his hand (my son has come back home)
And sandals on his feet (he was lost but now he found)
And let us celebrate!
Have you wandered far from your Father?
Have you spent your substance on another?
His promise will not fail you
Who died that He might save you
Jesus welcomes you home!
"Return to Me, for I have redeemed you.
The one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.
I beg you, come home! (come home, come home, ...)

Virtuosic Christmas Piano Solo | We Three Kings | Grant Steinweg | Arranged by Jarrod Radnich
Переглядів 1,4 тис.4 роки тому
Lyrics below Jarrod Radnich's arrangement of this well-known Christmas carol is an intense and flashy, yet beautiful and solemn rendering of this tune. It has a lot of intensity at the beginning, but quickly gives way to a mysterious solemnity. It almost seems as if the "three kings," or magi as they are more commonly called, were quite dazzled, yet baffled at the appearance of such a star as t...

Fear and rage. These seem to be the two dominant emotions right now. Fear of sickness, fear of death, fear of poverty, fear of rejection, fear of the mainstream mob the list goes on. Rage against political enemies, rage against real racism and supposed racism, rage against those who disagree, rage against God it's too much. As I've observed current events, my heart has broken from the bloody wa...
Still - by Reuben Morgan
Переглядів 2704 роки тому
This is a raw, unedited arrangement of Reuben Morgan's "Still," a simple song whose lyrics speak to the power of stillness and trusting God in the midst of life's storms. Do you feel like you need shelter? You can find it "under [His] wings." Do you need protection? He can "cover [you] within [His] mighty hand." Is there a storm that seems to big for you? With Him you can soar above it. The key...

When all is chaos, when all you hear about in the news is violence and pain, and when every day is a struggle, it is now that we need a Saviour Someone to save us. When depression, anxiety, and addiction seem to crush the joy out of life, and destroy our relationships, we crave for a Friend who will never leave us. Jesus is that Saviour. Jesus is that Friend. God is not the lies that have been ...

I saw you accompany Jessica Landis at the GYC 2022 while she performed "I am not ashamed of the gospel". The entire performance was a blessing - Glory to God. I looked at you as you played, and I said, there is something special about this young man - "He lives what he plays". So I looked you up in youtube and was so blessed to hear your composition. May you always stay connected to our beloved Savior. And may the good Lord allow you to compose more music for his glory.
Thanks bro for this wonderful music..GodBless always Brother Grant🙏😇🙏

Lyrics - Portuguese (Letra - Português) Você não terá outros deuses diante de Mim; Você não fará mais imagens para ocupar Meu lugar; Você não vai mais tomar Meu nome em vão; Você vai descansar na minha graça do Sábado; Refrão: Eu Sou o Senhor que te tirou da escravidão; Eu carreguei a cruz para compartilhar com vocês um doce conhecimento: que Eu te amo mais do que a própria vida, basta olhar para o Calvário! Eu quero o melhor para você; por que você simplesmente não confia em Mim? Você vai honrar seu pai e sua mãe; que sua vida possa ser longa na terra; Você não vai mais odiar nem assassinar; O sangue não manchará mais sua mão; Refrão: Eu Sou o Senhor que te tirou da escravidão; Eu carreguei a cruz para compartilhar com vocês um doce conhecimento: que Eu te amo mais do que a própria vida, basta olhar para o Calvário! Eu quero o melhor para você; por que você simplesmente não confia em Mim? Ponte: Você não vai matar, nem roubar, nem cometer adultério; Você não vai dar falso testemunho contra o seu vizinho; Você não vai cobiçar as coisas do seu vizinho. Serei seu amigo e fiel para sempre!! 😊 Refrão: Eu Sou o Senhor que te tirou da escravidão; Eu carreguei a cruz para compartilhar com vocês um doce conhecimento: que Eu te amo mais do que a própria vida, basta olhar para o Calvário!! Eu quero o melhor para você; por que você simplesmente não confia em Mim? Confie em Mim, confie em minhas palavras de graça!!
Praise God for your inspiring music ministry. May the Holy Spirit empower you more and may you keep leaning on Jesus Christ to further the gospel.
I love the message "Could God's law the law of love." and the the song "Why dont you trust me."
Hey Grant, you did a very very good performance of Jarrod's work. You have accurate dynamics, clear scale runs and -- most importantly -- passion in your play! I know what it takes to master the specific skills this piece demands from the musician.
This is such a beautiful song 😳😳😳
Stunning sound from your fingers. May god continue to bless you dear friend. Happy sabbath from wnc.
TO god be the glory of this splendid youngman. Happy sabbath grant. Just for my sabbath.
