Without Your love
The original Vineyard church started in my living room as a house meeting taught by Kenn Gulliksen.
Later Kenn started studies in other homes in the LA area, and eventually a church was birthed. The original Vineyard is where both Keith Green and Bob Dylan got saved, and the church had quite a few celebrities in the congregation.
Debby Boone was one who attended regularly, and she had just had the huge hit, “You Light Up My Life." I had heard she was looking for a follow-up, and “Without Your Love” was one of the few songs I ever wrote with someone else in mind. I actually submitted the song to her, but despite the fact that we saw her and husband Gabrielle Ferrer (son of Jose Ferrer and Rosemary Clooney, and brother of Miguel Ferrer, the well known actor) in church regularly, they never ever commented on the song.
I decided of course, to record it myself. Why waste a good song?
