À cette époque ce groupe était très apprécié et aimé par beaucoup de jeunes en France! Vous nous avez fait découvrir un style de musique et un message porté avec force et conviction! Be blessed

Matts voice is the best and most beautiful voice i´ve ever heard. He is my favorite vocalist of the world! God bless him!
The best voice of germany is the voice of Xavier Naidoo, he is very authentic and native in spite of his great success as a very popular christian musician in Europe.
COME BACK 2nd Chapter of Acts!!!!!!! I sing with a couple of bands now, and I can say that they had a HUGE influence on me musically. REUNION! (Lemme know if they need a backup singer!)
We need another serious Jesus Movement in this nation....There are so many people walking in a spiritual wilderness, who is going to be that voice that cries out? You musicians have the anointing upon you and these songs are such a blessing to me. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
They were some of my favourite Christian musicians growing up, it brings back warm memories. I hope to share them with my grandkids someday. Thanks for posting them. This recording turned out pretty good actually.
What you see as "lip-sync" may be a video/sound sync problem. The upload is 2 years old, and youtube conversion can do alot to an upload in regards of time-sync of the video and sound. Youtube still hasn't the best/precise conversion, depending on the format of the uploaded material. In most formats video and sound is two separate streams (and no common timeline) wich is handlet separately, both in palying and conversion.
@mindsaglowin Agree. Can't lip Matthew Wards vocal riffs because, as I recall, he does it different each time they perform this piece. 2nd Chapter of Acts, despite its obvious Queen and Foreigner influencers, were pioneers in Gospel Music. The problem is, the journey died with the demise of this outstanding trio. Getting back to Matthew Ward; one of the greatest voices in modern music. Imagine if American Idol was around in the 70's.... Rock on, Matthew!!!
Saw them about three times in Youngstown, Ohio(perhaps Warren or Brookfield-I would probably say Warren as my momloved their music and inour family-we were theonly ones to go and had a great mother son night out-all I think around the "Nightlight" album. Back then-it was packed-we had seatson the top deck-regardless-we enjoyed the show(in a non show way as we knew they were there to minister and notplay a show) God bless and thanks
We in Europe loved Second Chapter so much! Still I have goosebubbles when I listen to this music! Thank you for putting this material on internet! Greetings from Holland!
yes, all their music is a great blessing, am glad i could get new copies because my old albums were worn out, i also agree that Jesus is coming soon.........
thank you so much for your efforts to post these fabulous videos, what an amazing blessing to get to see the concert again. the ministry of the whole band continues to be a blessing.
2nd Chapter of Acts has played a major role in my Christian and musical life. I gained an ear for harmonies from listening to them, and learned how to be free with my singing from listening to Matthew. My singing can't hold a candle to his, but I do harmonies they way he does here a lot at my church when I help lead worship. My music minister loves it. :) I have subscribed to your channel - thank you for this.
@crazysingingchick I love the harmonies! I grew up loving good music, and 2nd Chapter of Acts' harmonies blew me away, even as a kid! High five for loving harmonies!
He, he.......yeah, it's "ridem cowboy" following him for sure! Where the girl's parts with Acts were pretty constantly the same, Matt never sang the songs the same way twice. Constant improvisation.
@crayrail A black friend of mine was on the phone with me one day and I played him this song. He said, "That's Stevie Wonder!!" When I showed him the picture of Matthew on the album cover later, he couldn't believe it, but he was VERY impressed. I recall him saying that Michael Bolton needs to take "Smooth White Boy" singing lessons from Matthew (or something like that). :)) Ha ha!!

The vocals seem prerecorded in this. Not bad, but I have a major problem with lip-syncing in live performances.
