Spend My Life With You 

Phil Keaggy

Aug. 8, 2017

Greetings to you, my good friends who enjoy LoveMusic! from Love For His People, 

In 1991 Phil Keaggy came out with his 15th album (out of more than 50 he has now produced thus far, at age 66!) called PH'LIP SIDE. One side was acoustic. The other electric. Personally, I liked the acoustic better, but anything Phil plays and sings is fine with me. He is just fantastic.

His long lasting following in the Christian community yet today is encouraging for those of us who can call themselves his "contemporaries". Phil's songs from back then (beginning in the 1970's) are still a real joy to listen to. I bet my best friend Kevin Grafton in Illinois still plays his cassettes! (I tease Kev about his golden oldie ways at times. Still going strong, until the cassette wears out! Thank the Lord for MP3 and more.)

There are several special songs on the vinyl, including "A Child (In Everyone's Heart", "Little Ones" (about the killing of the unborn), "Just A Moment Away", and "I Belong To You". 

Though I have featured this song already a few times on our blog, I never get tired of listening to it. I hope you think like that too!

Ahava and shalom,

Phil Keaggy - Spend My Life With You Lyrics

Artist: Phil Keaggy

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Christian

Lay me down to rest

Sing me a sweet lullaby
When will I see You again?
Sleep come over me

Can't keep from closing my eyes
The day is gone but You'll carry on
Watching, protecting me into the dawn
Then another day to spend my life with You

'Cause there's a home in my heart
And I believe the day is coming
When we'll never be apart
Just to be where You are
And to spend my live with You
Would be a perfect start

See You when I rise
Morning will bring me Your song
Over and over again

Shine Your light on me
Wash me in resplendent love
There is no shame with You as my aim
Yesterday, today, forever the same
And I only want to spend my life with You

'Cause there's a home in my heart
And I believe the day is coming
When we'll never be apart
Just to be where You are
And to spend my live with You
Would be a perfect start

In Your presence Lord
There I will be satisfied
Over and over again

Spend My Life With You

 - Phil Keaggy

Ph'lip Side (1980)

Phil Keaggy, one of the most, if NOT the greatest, guitarists of all time! Phil has been around since at least the late '60s. I "discovered" Phil in the early 1970's, and I am glad I did.

His sweet songs just captured my heart, enduring me to his music for decades. I know I have all his CDs, and a few vinyl albums at that (including this one, Ph'lip Side, which has to be my favorite), along with What A Day and Love Broke Through.

                       

And he has been playing his guitars with just nine fingers! (Phil Keaggy - bio)

Thanks Phil!

Phil Keaggy and Steve Martin - 2004

In 2004, Phil graciously accepted the invitation to come and play during the memorial service of Derek Prince, an event we had as staff in honor of Derek's passing at the age of 88. It was held at Forest Hill Church in Charlotte, North Carolina. Other guest speakers included John Hagee, Mahesh Chavda and Jim Croft. 

Afterwards I had the honor of taking Phil to the Charlotte airport, after this photo above was taken. 

Phil played two songs during the service, and spoke highly of the influence of Derek's Bible teaching - his love for God's Word and Israel. Both of these foundational teachings were "instrumental" in Phil's discipled, Christian life he said.

Such a pleasant guy! On the way to his flight in the car he gave me a CD demo of his next album, with just a hand written label on it. Wish I still had that one!  (Maybe I do. I tend to save every memory I can.)

Be blessed in your listen to Phil's music and heart!

Steve Martin
