I have a whole library of Luke Garrett soundtracks. He sang at one of my husband's churches and we have had him sing at other churches we've been in. Last time I talked with Peggy his secretary at Adoration Resources, which was probably 6 mos. ago, she said Luke was collaborating with another artist to produce a musical. Said Luke was not finding the income he needed just through church bookings. I assume that Adoration closed shop due to financial reasons, but like you, I have not been able to find his concert schedule, nor a new website. Sing a lot of his music -- one of the best Christian artists out today... his music is heart wrenching and you will never find anyting like it as far as composition. Would appreciate any updates regarding his whereabouts.

I would like to have the accompaniment tracks to Ever Constant Ever Sure and As If I Were The Only One To Love. Do you have them and can I buy them from you?

Hi Patty, i have only two albums of Luke, Luke Garret and Ever Constant, Ever Sure... I hope and pray that you could send me some of her albums even on mp3 format on emails. I also like the soundtracks of his albums. Thanks a lot and God Bless you...

CD is Here and Now. Hard to find Luke's recordings. Not much on amazon. Haven't seen mp3 downloads. I acquired them as they came out and have everything except his most recent collection of his best CD.

It seems he's next to impossible to find - don't know how to get his concert schedule or anything about him. Most of the stuff online is old. I just "happen" on occasion to hear he's going to be having a concert somewhere and will go. I've been listening to for over 20 years, have all his music (some of it signed), and have met him several times. He's one of the most humble men I've ever met, and you can really see his heart in his music. I have a pic of him and me that was taken Easter Sunday 2007 in Grapevine, TX when he sang at a church there. If you email at txnurse12650@yahoo.com I'll send you a copy. I also have an email of someone who may be of help in contact him for you...email me and I'll see if I can dig up the address.

I purchased the original track several years ago from Lifeway in Birmingham, AL - Still have it and use it from time to time - am about to convert it to CD so that when the tape gives out, I will have a backup!
The song has a tremendous message to the church today!

I am looking for the lyrics to Playing Games (At the Foot of the Cross). If anyone has them and could email them to me quickly, I'd sure appreciate it!

I love that song and my track broke and I'm looking for a new one. I know the words and can give them to you.

You've heard the story many times before
How the soldiers gambled for the robe of the Lord.
Their laughter drowning out the savior's cry.
Father forgiven and bowed his head and he died.

They were playing games
At the foot of the cross.
So close to his struggle
Yet so far from the cost.
Never feeling the shame
Never sensing the loss.
They were playing games
At the foot of the cross.

We're so quick to judge them and so slow to see
How there games resemble the ones played by you and me
As we fight for position in the church today
While they wolrd goes on dieing with out the savior's love.

We're just were playing games
At the foot of the cross.
So close to his struggle
Yet so far from the cost.
Never feeling the shame
Never sensing the loss.
They were playing games
At the foot of the cross.

I have searched all over Talladega, Calhoun and Etowah Counties for the Track of "Playing Games at the Foot of the Cross". Not sure thats the EXACT name of it or not, But I can't find anything remotely close to it. Its like a signiture song....and I'm devastated that I can't find it anywhere. I can't even find the lyrics on line anywhere. Can you possibly help me out? Thank you ever so much. In HIS service, I sing because I'm happy.....Malleigh Faith Jones

I mailed mine to Malleigh Faith Jones
I got it from Christian Book Distributors several years ago.

I have a copy of a CD track, Playing Games at the Foot of the Cross. I thought I was buying a Luke Garrett CD at the time, a few years ago, but it was an accompaniment track. I don't use it. (Luke did record it on one of his CD's. I have them all except his collection).

Hello,
I have not been able to locate Luke Garrett from Adoration Resourses....Phone disconnected....I have not seen his concert schedule for 2007 or if his latest C.D. is completed. Do you know how to contact him?
He is the best male Christian singer I have ever heard and he writes some of his music....I have most of his C.D.'s but would like to get the latest one and possible attend one of his concerts if it is in my area.
He has been to our church in Akron and everyone thought he had such a good heart and great voice too

Thank You
Mary Eckard

Remember the copyright situation regardless of who's arranged it, the copyright of the song is still owned by Luke Garretts music publisher.

Hey...were you looking for the musical arrangement or the actual musical recording? I have a copy of the arrangement that I could probably copy & send you.
