Geron Davis
b. 1960 Author of "We Are Standing on Holy Ground (Holy Ground)" in Glory to God Geron Davis USA 1960- .Born at Bogalusa, LA, the son of a minister, he was musically inclined. Living at Savannah, TN, and dedicating a new church, his father asked him to write a song for the dedication. Several weeks passed, but the song was not written. His father asked several more times. The night before the dedication, Davis sat at the new grand piano in the sanctuary, tired from his days’ work helping to ready the church for a service, and said to himself, “What do we want to say when we come into this building tomorrow to have a service for the first time?” He began playing chords. Within a short time, he had the song that would be his most famous, ‘Holy Ground’. He didn’t copy it on paper, but taught it to two of his siblings the following morning before church, and they sang it the next morning in the service. His mother cried when she heard it, thinking her children never sounded better. The congregation loved it. Someone later asked him if he realized that he had written something so powerful? He soon recorded his song for a friend’s album. Another friend asked if he could shop the song around, and soon came back with an offer from Meadowgreen Music to record it. Meadowgreen bought the song and music and told Davis, “This song will live beyond you. It will be bigger than you can imagine”. Bill Clinton was a fan of the song and had it sung at his inauguration and at his mother’s funeral in 1994. It was also recorded by Barbara Streisand. Davis married Becky Cannon, and they had two children, Gerica and Neiman. Together, Davis and wife have written, recorded, and performed a number of songs, some of which have become well-known to churches around the world. They formed a group with Davis’ sister, Alyson Lovern, and brother-in-law, Shelton, called “Kindred Souls’. In 2002 the group released an album: ‘Let It Rain’, which gained considerable attention on AC charts. Dozens of other famous groups have recorded their songs. They live in the Nashville, TN, area.

Person Name: Anónimo Vers. esp. of "Nos reunimos en tu santuario" in Himnario Adventista del Séptimo Día In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
