    Watch them all as they watch David take the solo portion, Gloria Gaither, Ivan Parker, Dean Hopper, Guy Penrod, Vestal Goodman. Steven Hill looks like he's about worried sick. They all know how high this song is and this was David Phelps' first Reunion so you know they were kinda worried. When he nails it you can see how happy and relieved they are! I enjoy watching them react almost as much as I enjoy hearing them all sing, including David.

      +Brian Murtha... The man behind David with the glasses is Stephen Hill. Stephen is a great singer and would likely be able to hit some of those high notes himself. The guy to David's right in the yellow jacket is Dean Hopper from the Gospel group, The Hoppers. I like Ivan Parkers reaction after David finishes. Ivan is sitting in the middle center of everyone in a silver suit. To Guy Penrod's right... I so love this song. David Phelps at his best.

    1 We’re floating down the stream of time,
    We have not long to stay;
    The stormy clouds of darkness
    Will turn to brightest day.
    Then let us all take courage,
    For we’re not left alone;
    The lifeboat soon is coming
    To gather the Jewels home.
    Refrain:
    Then cheer, my brother, cheer,
    Our trials will soon be o’er,
    Our lov’d ones we shall meet, shall meet,
    Upon the golden shore.
    We’re pilgrims and we’re strangers here,
    We’re seeking a city to come,
    The lifeboat soon is coming,
    To gather the Jewels home.
    3 The lifeboat soon is coming,
    By eyes of faith I see
    As she sweeps thro’ the waters
    To rescue you and me,
    And land us safely in the port
    With friends we love so dear.
    “Get ready,” cries the Captain;
    “Oh, look, she’s almost here.” [Refrain]

The trials of this life have a way of bringing your vision into focus on what’s important and I long to go home.

    The stormy clouds of darkness will turn to brightest day.
    Then let us all take courage for we're not left alone.

    Then cheer, my brothers cheer, our trials will soon be o'er.
    Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet upon the golden shore.
    We're pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're seeking a city to come.
    The life-boat soon is coming to gather His Jewels home.
    SOLO
    The life-boat soon is coming by the eye of faith I see.
    As she sweeps through the waters to rescue you and me.
    And land us safely on the port with friends we love so dear.
    "Get ready, " cries the Captain, "O look, she's almost here".
    ALL SING
    Then cheer, my sisters cheer, our trials will soon be o'er.
    Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet upon the golden shore.
    We're pilgrims and we're strangers here, we're seeking a city to come.
    The life-boat soon is coming to gather His Jewels home.
