[Jesus Rock n RoLL]

Larry Norman 4/8/47 - 2/24/08

Larry Norman has left this world and has gone home to be with our Lord Jesus Christ.

I remember back when,

It was on a Friday night back in the mid 70’s that I was out looking to party and get high when I was suddenly approached by a group of Jesus People armed with Bibles.

One of the Jesus People pulled me into his car and plugged in a cassette tape of Larry Norman singing Why Should The Devil Have All The Good Music, and The Rock That Doesn’t Roll.

I was amazed by his music, and how he was rockin and kickin out the jams but he was singing about Jesus.

My life changed that day.

I was Born Again in Christ that day as they all prayed with me while Larry Norman's music was playing in the backround.

Larry Norman was the founding father of Jesus rock n roll, that would later be called comtemporary Christian music.

Now Larry’s playin in The Heavenly Band.

God bless Larry Norman.

Here is a song written and performed by Larry Norman that many of you may have heard before.

It has been recorded by several Christian bands.

This song of Larry’s has also been in several of the Christian End Times Movies, and it comes from a pre-tribulation rapture point of view.

The song is “I Wished We’d All Been Ready”

Word & Music by Larry Norman

Life was filled with guns and war, and everyone got trampled on the floor.

I wish we'd all been ready,

Children died, the days grew cold, a piece of bread could buy a bag of gold,

I wish we'd all been ready,

There's no time to change your mind, the Son has come, and you've been left behind.

A man and wife asleep in bed, she hears a noise, and turns her head, he's gone.

I wish we'd all been ready,

Two men walking up a hill, one disappears, and one's left standing still.

I wish we'd all been ready,

There's no time to change your mind, how could you have been so blind?

The Father spoke, the demons dined, the Son has come, and you've been left behind

You've been left behind,

You’ve been left behind,

You’ve been left behind.
