Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, George Harrison. The three men who most influenced me.

What is Wondering Where the Lions are about ?

@Gauraonline This song comes first. Then, in no particular order: Awaiting on You All & My Sweet Lord by George Harrison; 40 by U2; Full Force Gale by Van Morrison; Gotta Serve Somebody by Bob Dylan; Jesus Is Just Alright by Doobie Brothers; In My Time of Dying by Led Zeppelin; My Sacrifice by Creed; Redemption Song by Bob Marley; Let It Be by The Beatles; and Wondering Where the Lions Are by Bruce Cockburn. There are many other such songs, but these are my favorites.

What is Ric Grech doing now and GInger Baker ? They should have been in this band ! Does any guitar player out there know the chords to this song please ?

[Gauraonline]

Eric is in true form here as he breaks out for the second part of the song. He learned his chops well with John Mayall's bluesbreakers, and then Cream. George Harrison had a huge spiritual influence on his pal Eric. George gave him his Strat, that had the sacred words "Hare Krishna" carved into the back of the plate of the guitar

@BRealBTru WHat are some of your other favorite rock songs that are sacred songs ? I still remember this from when they first released it as the first "super group".

[BRealBTru]

This is one of the most majestic, powerful yet humble songs about the joy of discovering God and His sustaining power. I would love to sing it live, but I'm not sure if I could sing it without getting choked up. It has a very powerful effect on me. A lot of my favorite rock songs are, in fact, sacred songs. Great performance by Clapton, Winwood & company. Thank you!

Lol. I play guitar for my church youth group's worship. the pastor asked me if I could play Presence of the Lord, I started playing this song. He was talking about a different Presence of the Lord.... He was surprised that a 15 yr old even knew this song. This generation needs music like this. They say music helps them live. No wonder most teens have shitty lives. I listen to this stuff and My life is amazing
