All I can say is WOW! Carlos Perdomo's new CD, Psalms, Prayers and Songs has just come out and today's program features many of his new songs, some of which are sung with his daughter, Sharon, and son, Carlos, Jr.! You will love these songs and another great interview with Carlos!
Having
been raised in a Christian home; Carlos had his own personal encounter
with the Lord when he was 19 years of age. Carlos’ experience happened
in Mt. Vernon, NY, at a small bilingual nondenominational church. They
gave Carlos the nickname El Cantante de Jehovah (The Singer of
Jûehovah). It was then that God called Carlos to serve Him through song.
Carlos
has been singing since he can remember. At five-years-old, he started
singing at Friday night tea parties at the request of his mom and her
friends. There, Carlos learned the emotions of singing secular love
songs. However, after his encounter with the Lord, he combined his love
for singing with his love of worshiping God. Carlos is also an
accomplished drummer, having played with a number of Christian bands.
There
were trials and tribulations that attacked his faith – even deciding
which music to perform: secular or Christian music. When Carlos
surrendered his life completely to his Lord and Savior, he began the
slow but firm resolve to die to himself, presenting his body as a living
sacrifice to the Lord. As we read in Galatians 2:20 "I have been
crucified with Messiah; and it is no longer I who live, but Messiah
lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith
in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.”
