This is the first song that Judy & Ray have co-written, but there
will most likely be many more. Another will be released in early 2012.
Judy found this lyric HEAVEN BACKS ME UP that she'd written some
years earlier, but had forgotten about, in her file drawer. She sent
it to Ray with another lyric she'd written at the same time. She'd
always loved Ray's melodies.. and is really happy with what he
did with the two lyrics. Also both of them are pleased that their voices
blend so well and are hoping this song will inspire listeners to make
sure that 'heaven' backs them up as well. Their song will be released
as a single on Faith in God #29 Compilation CD.
