"Thank you very much. We'd like to hit one serious note for you, even if the note is out of tune, we'd like to hit a serious note right now. June and I went to the land of Israel in the month of May last year, with a tape recorder, we took it with us. And there are some things in this world that everybody wants to see or hear at one time or another in their life. Especially for you fellas, I think it would feel real good if we could bring back sounds of the pеople and the places. I know a lot of you just likе I was, they were always dear to you, the stories and the songs about Israel. We went to Nazareth, and went to the Sea of Galilee, to Tiberius, we went to Jerusalem, the way of the cross, went to the Wailing Wall. All these sounds are on the album for you to hear. We hope that you'll enjoy some of it."

"I'd like to tell you a real happening in this album. We went into the little town of Cana, just over the hills from Nazareth. And there's a church that sits over the cistern where the water came from that Christ turned to wine, where the first miracle was performed. We went into the church, saw the cisterns. You could hear the water in there, hear the echo. I was so impressed when I came out of the church. If I ever had an inspiration, I had one then from what I had seen and heard. I said under my breath, He turned the water into wine, of all things. On the way to Tiberius, in the car, in the next few minutes, I wrote this song..."

He turned the water into wine
He turned the water into wine
In the little Cana town the word went all around
That He turned the water into wine

Well he walked upon the Sea of Galilee
He walked upon the Sea of Galilee
Shouted far and wide, He calmed the raging tide
And walked upon the Sea of Galilee

He turned the water into wine, didn't my Lord, now?
He turned the water into wine
In the little Cana town the word went all around
That He turned the water into wine

He fed the hungry multitude
He fed the hungry multitude
With a little bit of fish and bread they said everyone was fed (5,000)
He fed the hungry multitude

He turned the water into wine, didn't the carpenter from Nazareth?
He turned the water into wine
In the little Cana town the word went all around
That He turned the water into wine
He turned the water into wine
