The late 60's and early '70's were a time of tremendous upheaval in American culture as the hippie generation abandoned the values of their parents, turned to drugs and away from materialism, and went on a search for love and peace.

It was out of this tumultuous era that young, musical voices began to surface. These newly converted musicians began singing about the new hope they had found through Jesus Christ.

Matthew Ward was one of these young voices. Go behind the scenes with him to look at this exciting era in this clip from, "First Love".

The 2nd Chapter of Acts were one of my MAINSTAYS in the earlier years of my Christian journey. What a gift they were to ME and to the Body of Christ. During the 80s through the mid-90s they were among my favorite!... Matthew Ward, I thought, was always an incredible tenor with such a unique voice as well... a milestone in Christian music!

One of the finest voices in popular music. A truly talented vocalist as well as writer. She sang well until the end of her live, and how unfortunate that she has left us by no self destructive means of her own. Fly with the angels.

Too bad we children of God have denied His power to heal based on His offerings of Herbs which I watched heal my Mother of melanoma & remove a nasty growth from my leg Others I have spoken with have been healed of thyroid, lung and colon cancer, and always they receive the same doctor's report & the single most misused word in their profession, "Misdiagnosis" Western medicine has a real cash cow in intrusive, destructive cancer treatment as they 'legally' remove every natural healing option

I wonder if he can still sing Psalm 63...... You guys heard it ? If you like MW's music, just go ahead and buy it off ITunes ! I was saved in 72 . A very hard/weird time to be a 20 year old -on fire- Christian. I was glad when he and his sisters started making records !

Very natural and down to earth. He doesn't come across as an idealistic fanatic. When I was a kid, I used to think his voice reminded me of Stevie Wonder's voice. Great singer. Great testimony. Great attitude. Talks about Jesus but in a very matter of fact way. I really love it when Christians do that. Too many people try to make Christians look wacky. Matthew Ward isn't "wacky" at all.

Iv'e always said that Matthew Ward has one of the most controlled voices in both Christian and secular music, and even in a sitting position. Man can this guy sing. I saw 2nd chapter in the mid 80's right after I got saved. The most inspiring vocalists ever. Thanks so much for the video.
