The year was 2003. I had gotten this song from my youth pastor on cassette. He wanted to put this file on cd, and asked me to convert it. He told me that This song has been passed along from Baptist pastor to pastor in the Heartland Baptist Bible College circut.

The plan was to give it to our pastor as a prank, saying this is a professional from Tenessee (that’s where our pastor was born and raised). I even when so far coming up with artwork for the cd and case (I’m a graphic designer).

So I put it on using Adobe Audition, and cleaned it up a bit (the quality wasn’t the best). I emailed it everywhere and even posted it online several times on several websites, one being The Singing News Forums. So I guess you can blame me…. but it was too good not to pass along!

If you want the file I have that I converted from cassette, it is located here: http://www.box.net/shared/fdkfrt9iey

If you compare the file to any of the other ones found on the internet, you see that this matches up perfectly!

I’m sorry Steve! But it was me!
