Ted had already been playing professionally as a musician, but the Lord refined His gift towards worship and Ted soon recorded his first messianic album, "Shield of David" (1991).
He later put together a Christian rock band releasing 2 very different albums Nomadic Farmers (1997) and Big Methuselah (1999).
But his desire to bless Israel led him to record a new messianic project, which was called "Letter to the Hebrews" and released in Jerusalem on The Day of Pentecost 2001. Ted?s debut on Messianic worship label Galilee of the Nations followed in October of 2002 with "Zealous Over Zion".
Now Ted has three new projects coming this year on the #1 Christian worship label, Integrity Records.
"Road to Jerusalem" is a compilation birthed out of the hearts of Coach Bill McCartney and Raleigh Washington to bring Christian Churches and the messianic community together in unity and includes artists like Paul Wilbur, Marty Goetz, Lamb, Joel Chernoff, Jonathan Settel, Karen Davis, Rachel Washington, and Ted Pearce. These all sing together on the title song co-written by Yochanan ben Yehuda and Ted Pearce, which releases internationally on June 7th 2005.
His next solo recording, "Hallelu Et Adonai" is a collection of simple acoustic songs written for small music teams and releases July 5th 2005.
In addition to those 2 releases, Ted and Joel Chernoff have collaborated to revive the Messianic pioneer group, Lamb. Their collaboration comes out in October of 2005.
Ted's vision is to see all the sons of Adam turn to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and believes that he can help build bridges of shalom.

Ted Pearce Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For the time is come to judge Babylon
(Come on out of her!)
For her sins have reached unto the heavens
All people and nations are drunk with her wine
For in one hour she will be thrown down
This is the day of the vengeance of our God
Holy, Holy, Holy the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and who is, and is yet to come
Heaven and earth are filled with His glory
And in that day His name shall be One
The lyrics to Ted Pearce’s song “Babylon” speak of the judgment of Babylon and urge God’s people to come out of her. The use of the phrase “come out of her” can be understood in several ways. First, it could be interpreted as a call for God’s people to physically leave Babylon, as it was a physical place. However, it could also be seen as a call for believers to disassociate themselves from the corrupt and sinful practices that Babylon represents. This could apply to any society or culture that does not align with God’s standards and principles.
The song references the sins of Babylon reaching unto the heavens, which symbolizes the magnitude of Babylon’s wickedness. The idea of people and nations being drunk with her wine suggests that Babylon’s influence and seduction have spread far and wide. The line “in one hour she will be thrown down” implies that Babylon’s downfall will be swift and sudden. The final stanza brings attention to God’s holiness and the fact that the day of judgment will be a day of vengeance. The use of “Holy, Holy, Holy” is taken from Isaiah 6:3 and is a declaration of God’s holiness.

@John Chege I think it could be a funeral home in New Orleans? Everyone has their own ideas, but this song was inspired by a John McCain speech, if that helps.

Shalom Edward. I'm told that the way I spell Pearce is from the sephardic Peres. Does that make us ancient cousins? You would have the same name as my brother in that case. I don't know...but thanks for stopping by.
