him by his songs. He became a national figure in Christian music as an
artist with his 1984 debut release "Keep No Secrets" on Star Song
Records. As a writer, he became well-known for his paradox-laden lyric
style. Songs like "Strength of the Weak," and "Kingdom Upside Down" flow
out of a heart that relishes irony.
As an artist, Morgan enjoyed
considerable radio success with songs like "Holy Fire," "I Get Carried
Away," "Voice of Experience," "Pray in the USA," and of course "What
Sin?" His #1 hits on Christian radio include "If I Never See a
Miracle," "I Call Him Father," and "Pray in the USA."
Cryar has enjoyed a parallel career
in record production, helping independent artists make the most of their
music. He has also served the indie community through Christian Music
Workshops as a teacher of songwriting, music business, and stage
presence.
Morgan now serves as CEO of Singing

instruction program on the web. He makes his home in Nashville, TN with
his wife Melanie and their 7 children.
