The selections for this edition of basicmm radio come from a lost recording recently rediscovered in the Campbell house from the year 2003. We recorded a live show at Chesapeake Coffee Company in Victor, NY (a now-defunct coffee house) with a gathering of friends that made for a fun night. (listen for some great back-up vocals on Called Out Ones!)The interesting thing about the songs chosen is that they are the only two songs that I wrote in 1998. That was quite a break from the norm at that time! There were a lot of changes in my life that year, and so somehow I only wrote two songs, and both during the same week of camp in PA that summer! Crazy!Both songs are available for purchase on iTunes, click the links below to go directly to that song at the iTunes Music Store. (must have iTunes software installed on your computer.

That's why it was such a cool work of God that we ended up doing music full time! It wasn't something that I clung to, or that she wanted at all, and yet God made it clear that was where he wanted to use us. Amazing.Scriptures referenced here in this podcast: Eph 1:3-5, and Rom 7:15-25.Jen wanted me to point out that we discovered we were pregnant in April (or so) 1998, he was not born until Dec of 1998. :-)The camp mentioned was actually in PA. Was with some good friends of ours, Dave & Marie Drake.Jen likes it when I play guitar now. :-)Kyle Krenzer, who engineered the recording, has a websiteEnjoy the podcast! Here are the lyrics for the songs...Wretched Man (1998)There’s a war inside of meAnd I am the enemyIt seems to take controlAnd it’s starting to take its tollYou said, “Be Holy, ‘cause I AM”I try, but I am just a manHow can I bear the weightOf this one very tall commandCHORUSThanks be to God our Savior,Through Jesus Christ our LordThanks be to God our SaviorThrough Jesus Christ my Lord and KingWhat a wretched man I amFallin’ down on my face againWho can save me from this mess I’m inI don’t wanna be here again (chorus)How many times I’ve said I wontJust to turn around and chokeOn my own words killin’ meOh, I just want to be set free (chorus)Called Out Ones (1998)You are the called out onesChosen by the FatherTo be like His Son(2x)Before he made the worldHe chose you as His ownBefore you did a thingTo take the love He’s shownIt was God who made the loving sacrificeCalling out to you, “My child, take my life”And that’s why(all repeats of chorus - “We are the called out ones...”)Words & Music by: Greg Campbell© 1998 Greg Campbell - Wretched Man recorded on Come As You Are - © 2002 basic music ministries, Called Out Ones recorded on Lord Hear My Voice - © 2000 basic music ministries.
