CUT CAPO “GOD SO LOVED” BY ED CASH, SCOTT CASH, FRANNI CASH, MARTIN CASH, ANDREW BERGTHOLD | Mitch Bohannon What do “How Great Is Our God,” “Living EP full of their own gritty, amazing tunes that “God Hope,” and “Victory (Bethel Music)” have in are befitting to their collective resumes. When I congregational song celebrating the truth of common? Ed Cash. Well, this past month, Ed saw the announcement of the release, I jumped John 3:16. I totally dig heavy acoustically driven Cash along with Scott Cash, Franni Rae Cash, over to iTunes and bought it immediately. I was tunes. Churches seem to grab ahold of them Martin Cash and Andrew Bergthold released an drawn to “God So Loved” and “Holy Water.” pretty quickly. This song would be great to lead is a super-singable and an acoustic or two.

To play with the recording, I’m following a strum pattern of down-down-up / down-down-up through the verses and more driving for the chorus. The bridge of the song is a nice dynamic break that sets up the kick back VE R S E 3 : G G Bring all your failures. Bring your addictions N.C. Come lay them down at the foot of the cross to chorus nicely. Jesus is waiting. God so loved the world your failures, Bring your addictions, Come lay TURNAROUND: | G Gsus G Gsus | G Gsus G / | Lyrically, the song is brilliant, especially verse 3 (and the repeat of verse 3 at the end). “Bring all them down at the foot of the Cross.
