<\/a><\/p>\nMy wife wanted to sing it with me, so I wrote a second vocal part. Then when we included it in the repertoire for TerraNova<\/i> we wanted Barbara to sing also, so I wrote a third part. In the recording, the original second part was the top part on the chorus but the middle part on the verse. My wife still complains that when I wrote the third part I made her sing the middle part all the way through, so now when she hears it she doesn’t know which part to sing, but I didn’t want to be crossing the girl’s parts and Barb had the higher voice.<\/p>\n
The recording is here<\/a>. <\/p>\n Convinced<\/i><\/b><\/font>.<\/p>\n So here are the words:<\/p>\n Convinced. You said that I was a sinner, Convinced. You said that freedom was in You– Convinced. You said you’d meet my needs if I would put you first, Convinced. I can only hope you benefit from the song in some way. I will continue with additional songs in the future.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n *****<\/p>\n Previous web log song posts:<\/p>\n #301: The Song “Holocaust”<\/a><\/i> | #307: The Song “Time Bomb”<\/a><\/i> | #311: The Song “Passing Through the Portal”<\/a><\/i> | #314: The Song “Walkin’ In the Woods”<\/a><\/i> | #317: The Song “That’s When I’ll Believe”<\/a><\/i> | #320: The Song “Free”<\/a><\/i> | #322: The Song “Voices”<\/a><\/i> | #326: The Song “Mountain, Mountain”<\/a><\/i> | #328: The Song “Still Small Voice”<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n Next song:<\/i> Selfish Love<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is mark Joseph “young” blog entry #334, on the subject of The Song “Convinced”. At one time this was my favorite song. It still ranks number 4 on my list, because I’ve written a few songs I like more. Tristan placed it tied for 9, which is pretty high on his list.

\nLord, You’ve got me convinced.
\nI will never doubt You
\nSince
\nI found out You
\nCan be trusted more than I knew.
\nEv’rything You said has proved true.<\/p>\n
\nAnd hopelessly enslaved.
\nI thought that I was a winner,
\nSo why should I be saved?
\nBut when a habit tried to break me,
\nI was in a bind.
\nI tried to change and couldn’t make me,
\nSo I’ve changed my mind.<\/p>\n
\nLord, You’ve got me convinced.
\nI will never doubt You
\nSince
\nI found out You
\nCan be trusted more than I knew.
\nEv’rything You said has proved true.<\/p>\n
\nI saw it in Your Word.
\nI couldn’t even begin to
\nBelieve what’s so absurd.
\nBut when I found no other answer,
\nYou set me free.
\nYou changed a mourner to a dancer.
\nNow you’ve got me<\/p>\n
\nLord, You’ve got me convinced.
\nI will never doubt You
\nSince
\nI found out You
\nCan be trusted more than I knew.
\nEv’rything You said has proved true.<\/p>\n
\nYet when I trusted you, I waited for the worst.
\nBut then you brought me through a very trying time,
\nAnd worked it all for good, so now I’ll say that I’m<\/p>\n
\nLord, You’ve got me convinced.
\nI will never doubt You
\nSince
\nI found out You
\nCan be trusted more than I knew.
\nEv’rything You said has proved true.
\nAll you said is true.
\nI will put my trust in
\nYou
\nBecause just in
\nTime I saw such clear evidence.
\nLord, You’ve got me convinced.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
