Don Moen - Thank You Lord -
While sitting in the balcony of his church in Mobile, Alabama, Don Moen looked out over the congregation. He noticed many people standing silently, not singing along to the complex contemporary songs of the time. His heart went out to them, and he felt a deep burden to provide a "simple song of thanks" that anyone could sing, regardless of their musical ability or spiritual state.
During the same period, Moen wrote "Jesus, You Are My Healer" for a friend diagnosed with cancer, who remarkably attended the live recording of the Thank You Lord album while his health was improving. Don Moen - Thank You Lord
The story behind is rooted in his desire to give people a simple, accessible way to express their gratitude to God during worship. The Inspiration in the Balcony While sitting in the balcony of his church
