| Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, Journey Member Jonathan Cain Releases Only A Prayer Away EPEP Includes "Amen To The Rescue," Inspired by Cain's Charity Work in Chimney Rock, NC Following Devastating Flood; First New Set of Songs from Cain in Nearly Four Years, All Six Songs Are Cain's Response to Faith in Action
Whether it was going to Chimney Rock, NC for Hurricane Helene disaster relief, South Korea for "Peace On The Peninsula" talks or attending the National Day of Prayer in Washington, DC, all six of the new songs on the EP are Cain's musical response to faith in action. The EP, which features Cain's trademark piano playing, is the first new set of solo songs from him to release in nearly four years. The initial inspiration and first song written for the EP came following Cain's trip to Chimney Rock, NC while CityServe International was working to help clean up the mud following devastating floods. "I go there in a helicopter, and I meet all these people who are so intent on getting their town back after losing everything. Everything they own is down the river, but with the mind of Christ, they are all working together to try to get their little town dug out. I was so moved. I'd never seen anything like this in my life. "So I'm in the helicopter, flying out after witnessing this whole thing and start writing this lyric," continues Cain. "By the time I land, 'Amen To The Rescue' is finished." Along with "Amen To The Rescue," the EP features lead single and title track from the recording that was inspired by well-known pastor, author and founder of Harvest Crusades, Greg Laurie. Cain wrote the song after seeing a short film featuring Laurie sharing the Gospel and proclaiming that "God is only a prayer away." https://youtu.be/ The EP also features "Imagine Peace," a song Cain wrote and performed for 40 leaders attending the "Peace On The Peninsula" world conference that took place in Seoul Korea, and "'I Will Praise You Home," which was inspired by Dr. Pamela Pyle's book, Anticipating Heaven.
