Marc Martel - Thank You For Saving Me (Delirious? Cover) featuring Stu G

Having grown up in Quebec, and attending francophone churches, I wasn’t exposed to quite the same music my English speaking brethren had around them. The vast majority of our hymns and choruses were translated from English. So when I headed west to bible college in 1996, I fell into a vast treasure trove of new-to-me church music, rediscovering familiar melodies, only in their original—much more poetic—language. That’s where I found and nurtured my love for leading worship, which I had the privilege of doing every month or so for the student body, in morning chapel. Around the same time, a band out of England was making waves with their super catchy melodies, and approachable heartfelt lyrics. Everywhere I turned, a new Delirious? song was everyone’s favorite new praise & worship tune. Whether it was “I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever,” “Shout To The North,” “Did You Feel The Mountains Tremble?” or “Happy Song,” people couldn’t get enough of the music of lead singer and principle songwriter, Martin Smith, and his band. It has been nearly 25 years since I was first introduced to Delirious?’s stuff, at a very formative time in my life, and I’m so thankful today to call their lead guitarist, Stu G, my friend. In celebration of Easter 2022, here’s our one-take performance of my favorite Delirious? song, “Thank You For Saving Me.”
