Zion - Heaven In His Eyes (featuring Rich Mullins) video free download
Track 8 from Zion's album, Behold The Man. 16 years after this recording, 9 days before his untimely death, Rich Mullins re-recorded a demo of this song for his upcoming project which would ultimately be "The Jesus Record". The studio version on that album featured lead vocals from Michael W. Smith.
From Wikipedia:
Behold the Man is the only album by the band Zion, released in 1981. It is best known as the recording debut of Christian singer/songwriter Rich Mullins (1955-1997), who wrote all of the songs on the album.
In the late 1970s, Mullins left Cincinnati Bible College to work with Zion Ministries. While there, he also sang and played in the band, which went by the name Zion. Soon after the release of the album, one of Amy Grant's managers, Mike Blanton, received a copy of it and recognized "Sing Your Praise to the Lord" as the perfect song for Grant to include on her album, Age to Age (1982). Amy Grant recorded the song, which became a hit, and resulted in a publishing contract for Rich Mullins. Later, Rich began his professional recording career on Blanton's record label, Reunion Records, with his self-titled debut album in 1986.

If you have this album, we probably know each other. I grew up in KY and Rich was my youth leader in Erlanger. I had the album and mistakenly loaned it back to Rich sometime in the mid-80's (because he lost his) and he lost mine. No big surprise there, but I'd love to have another copy. Do you know anyone who has one?13 years ago

Rich played this in my church in the early 80''s- my junior high youth group got to see a man so in love with the Lord, and so humanly real. He was an is a witness to the love of Christ , in Whose arms he lives fprever!13 years ago

@woofy You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it. This is one of my favorite songs from "The Jesus Record" and I was so thrilled when I found out that Rich recorded a studio version of it years earlier. Take care & God Bless!Related Videos
