Thanks Derek. This song pulls those emotions out for sure.

Awesome version Jim! Emotional vocals and excellent playing. Those nice pull-offs add to the accompaniment.

Yup Keith, 5 verses is pretty much the norm. Two more verses that I think were original and I sometimes include are the ones that start "You say I took your name in vain, well I don't even know your name" And then the powerful
I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel so I tried to touch
I told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I'll stand before the Lord of song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Man, I got shivers just typing those!

Merci ansenne jean claude.

Yep Jim, I agree with your thoughts. I have the sheet music here, but think, without looking that it only has about 5 verses to it. Also I was on YouTube, and found out that he was Jewish, so can understand why now, that the verses came from the Old Testament.
