    The Deep Places Are Locked
    The Closed Well Choir
    Songs from The Twelve Plates of Witness

    From the Fraternal Order of the Closed Well comes The Deep Places Are Locked, the first gathered song-cycle of The Closed Well Choir.

    These songs give voice to Rev. T. R. Oliver Croftbarrel’s recovered sequence, The Twelve Plates of Witness — engraved visions of sealed waters, national memory, buried grief, covenant witness, restrained judgement, and mercy holding back the deep.

    This is not performance for fame.
     This is not music for spectacle.
     This is witness.

    The well is closed.
     The waters are restrained.
     The hourglass runs.
     The watchtower stands.
     The branch still lives.
     The witness waits.

    Each song follows one plate, beginning with The Closed Well, where the whole witness begins: the deep places are real, but locked; the waters are dangerous, but restrained; and mercy itself may sometimes appear as an iron door.

    The deep places are locked.
     The waters are restrained.
     Mercy holds the iron door
     till the Lord shall speak again.

    The Deep Places Are Locked is part of The Ballad Dodecet™ universe.

  • Go Tell The Kingdom-Hymn-12- From 12 Rights-12-THE RIGHT TO PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL

    Send us Fan Mail

    Go Tell the Kingdom is Hymn Number 12 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this final hymn completes the Iron Hymns sequence with rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, gospel proclamation, and kingdom fire.

    This hymn corresponds to the Twelfth Right: The Right to Proclaim the Gospel.

    After the first eleven hymns declare life, the worship of the one true God, the rejection of false gods, reverence for the Name of God, gathered worship, household order, life free from violence, faithfulness in marriage, stewardship, truthful witness, and holy contentment, this twelfth hymn turns outward.

    The people of God are sent.

    Go Tell the Kingdom is a hymn of proclamation. It is not private comfort hidden away. It is not a timid whisper. It is not a faith kept safely indoors.

    It is a trumpet call to carry the good news of Jesus Christ into the world.

    The heart of the hymn is clear:

    Go tell the Kingdom
    Tell it loud and plain
    Christ was nailed for sinners
    And He broke the grave again

    This song declares the cross, the blood, the empty tomb, the mercy of God, the pardon of sinners, and the coming reign of Christ.

    It is for the kitchen, the graveyard, the prison, the rain, the pulpit, the radio, the road, the town, the city, the holler, and the farthest home.

    The gospel is not an optional extra. It is the message the Church has been given to carry:

    Christ has died.
    Christ has risen.
    Christ will come again.

    This final hymn gathers the whole album into one sending cry. The rights are not merely to be protected. They are to be lived, sung, preached, guarded, and carried into the world under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

    Musically, this is rugged country gospel with revival weight: deep male choir, low drums, strong baritone lead, open-road momentum, and the sound of a people sent with the Bible in their hands and fire in their bones.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is not sentimental religion.

    This is the sound of the gospel being carried.

  • Enough is A Hallelujah-Hymn-11- From 12 Rights-11-THE RIGHT TO REJOICE WITHOUT COVETNOUS

    Send us Fan Mail

    Enough Is a Hallelujah is Hymn Number 11 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this hymn continues the Iron Hymns sound: rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, gratitude with backbone, and contentment as warfare.

    This hymn corresponds to the Eleventh Right: The Right to Contentment.

    After the first ten hymns declare life, the worship of the one true God, the rejection of false gods, reverence for the Name of God, gathered worship, household order, life free from violence, faithfulness in marriage, stewardship, and truthful witness, this eleventh hymn stands at the small table and gives thanks.

    Enough Is a Hallelujah is not a hymn of laziness.

    It is not a hymn of defeat.

    It is not a hymn that despises ambition, labour, or provision.

    It is a hymn of holy contentment.

    It recognises that coveting is a hunger with a hole where thanks should be. Envy looks at another man’s portion and calls God unjust. Gratitude looks at the bread in hand and blesses the Giver.

    The heart of the hymn is clear:

    Enough is a Hallelujah
    Enough is a battle cry
    Enough is how a thankful man
    Looks the devil in the eye

    This song speaks against comparison, resentment, envy, and the restless spirit that can never rejoice because someone else has more.

    It blesses the crust.

    It blesses the cup.

    It blesses the hand that lifts us up.

    It blesses the work, the rest, the small table, the gathered family, and the Father who still stands beside His children.

    Contentment is not weakness. It is not passivity. It is spiritual resistance. It is the refusal to let envy steal praise.

    Musically, this is rugged country gospel with a warm hearth-and-table feel: deep male choir, steady drums, acoustic weight, and a baritone lead that sounds like a man who has learned to give thanks without surrendering his backbone.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is not prosperity religion.

    This is the sound of gratitude standing its ground.

  • Tell It Straight-Hymn-10 - From 12 Rights-10-THE RIGHT TO TRUTHFUL WITNESS

    Send us Fan Mail

    Tell It Straight is Hymn Number 10 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this hymn continues the Iron Hymns sound: rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, courtroom gravity, and pulpit fire.

    This hymn corresponds to the Tenth Right: The Right to Truthful Witness.

    After the first nine hymns declare life, the worship of the one true God, the rejection of false gods, reverence for the Name of God, gathered worship, household order, life free from violence, faithfulness in marriage, and stewardship before God, this tenth hymn stands in the witness box.

    Tell It Straight is a hymn of truth, testimony, courage, confession, and moral clarity.

    It is not a song for managed narratives.

    It is not a song for polished excuses.

    It is not a song for convenient silence.

    It is a call to speak the truth before God.

    The heart of the hymn is clear:

    Tell it straight
    With your hand on the Word
    Say what you saw
    Say what you heard

    A false witness does not merely bend the facts. He buries the innocent alive. He hands the wolf a clean white coat and calls the shepherd unkind.

    This song stands against the lie dressed up in Sunday clothes, the silence bought with comfort, and the mouth that bends for bread. It remembers that God weighs every answer and remembers what was said.

    Truthful witness is not cruelty. It is not gossip. It is not pride. It is the holy refusal to bless the lie, hide the wound, or bury justice in order to keep ourselves dry.

    The Christian must learn to say yes when yes is true, no when no is true, and nothing when silence is obedience. But when witness is required, the truth must not be trimmed.

    Musically, this is rugged country gospel with courtroom weight: deep male choir, low drums, restrained organ, and a baritone lead that sounds like a man with one hand on the Bible and no place left to hide.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is not sentimental religion.

    This is the sound of truth standing up.

  • The Stewards Song-Hymn-09- From 12 Rights-09-THE RIGHT TO STEWARD YOUR POSSESSIONS

    Send us Fan Mail

    The Steward’s Song is Hymn Number 9 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this hymn continues the Iron Hymns sound: rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, field-and-table gravity, and stewardship with backbone.

    This hymn corresponds to the Ninth Right: The Right to Steward Your Possessions.

    After the first eight hymns declare life, the worship of the one true God, the rejection of false gods, reverence for the Name of God, gathered worship, household order, life free from violence, and faithfulness in marriage, this ninth hymn turns to what God places in our hands.

    The Steward’s Song is not a hymn of greed.

    It is not a defence of selfishness.

    It is not a song for closed fists.

    It is a hymn of entrusted responsibility.

    It recognises that the field, the table, the tools, the wages, the roof, the books, the bread, the inheritance, and the family store are not ours forever. They are placed in our keeping for a season, under God, to be used with mercy and guarded with wisdom.

    The heart of the hymn is clear:

    I own nothing forever
    I hold nothing alone
    But the Lord has put a portion
    In these hands of flesh and bone

    This song stands against both greed and theft. It refuses the lie that possessions are gods, but it also refuses the lie that another man’s goods may be taken in the name of justice.

    The Christian steward must hold with open hands toward mercy and a firm backbone toward responsibility.

    There is bread for the hungry.
    There is shelter from the rain.
    There is seed for sowing.
    There is work to be done.
    There is an account to be given.

    Musically, this is rugged country gospel with a harvest-field feel: deep male choir, steady drums, warm acoustic weight, and a baritone lead that sounds like a man standing at the edge of a field, answering to God for what has been trusted to him.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is not prosperity religion.

    This is the sound of stewardship before the Master.

  • Covenant Fire-Hymn-08 - From 12 Rights-08-THE RIGHT TO FAITHFULNESS IN MARRIAGE

    Send us Fan Mail

    Covenant Fire is Hymn Number 8 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this hymn continues the Iron Hymns sound: rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, covenant weight, and faithful fire.

    This hymn corresponds to the Eighth Right: The Right to Faithfulness in Marriage.

    After the first seven hymns declare life, the worship of the one true God, the rejection of false gods, reverence for the Name of God, gathered worship, household order, and life free from violence, this eighth hymn stands before the marriage covenant.

    Covenant Fire is not a soft love song.

    It is a hymn of vow, fidelity, endurance, repentance, mercy, and holy desire.

    It remembers that marriage is not merely a feeling, a contract, a mood, or a romantic season. It is a covenant made before God.

    The heart of the hymn is clear:

    Covenant fire
    Burning through the years
    Stronger than the wanting
    Deeper than the tears

    This song speaks to the long obedience of marriage: coffee mornings, rainy nights, sharp words repented of, bills beside the Bible, silence in the room, grace through the doorway, and two sinners learning to love under the Lordship of Christ.

    It is about guarding the door, guarding the eyes, guarding the vow, and refusing the old sins when they rise.

    The ring is not a chain.
    It is a circle round a flame.
    The vow is not a cage.
    It is a shelter in the rain.

    Covenant Fire carries warmth, but not weakness. It honours love as something holy, durable, costly, and guarded by God. It is a song for husbands and wives who know that faithfulness must be chosen again and again, not merely felt once and remembered.

    Musically, this is rugged country gospel with a solemn marriage fire: deep male choir, steady drums, restrained organ, warm acoustic weight, and a baritone lead that sounds like a man renewing his vow before God.

    This is not sentimental romance.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is the sound of a covenant still burning.

  • No Blood On My Hands-Hymn-07 - From 12 Rights-07-THE RIGHT TO LIFE FREE FROM VIOLENCE

    Send us Fan Mail

    This House Belongs to God is Hymn Number 6 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this hymn continues the Iron Hymns sound: rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, household faith, and fatherly backbone.

    This hymn corresponds to the Sixth Right: The Right to Honour Family Order.

    After the first five hymns declare life, the worship of the one true God, the rejection of false gods, reverence for the Name of God, and the gathering of God’s people, this sixth hymn brings the declaration home.

    Not merely into church buildings.

    Not merely into public confession.

    But into the kitchen, the doorway, the cradle, the table, the marriage bed, the family room, the prayer chair, and the hard daily work of keeping a household under God.

    This House Belongs to God is a hymn of household consecration. It declares that the Christian home is not owned by the age, the screen, the street, the state, or the idols of unbelief. It belongs first to the Lord.

    This is a song for fathers needing courage, mothers holding fast, children needing blessing, kin needing refuge, and families learning how to stand in a world that wants to reorder everything.

    The heart of the hymn is clear:

    This house belongs to God
    Every room and every stone
    Every child beneath this roof
    Every seed of mercy sown

    This is not nostalgia.

    It is not sentimental family religion.

    It is a strong declaration that household order is holy ground. A home is not just a place where people sleep. It is a place where souls are formed, mercy is practised, children are guarded, Scripture is opened, forgiveness is learned, and Christ is honoured.

    The hymn carries warmth, but not softness. There is fire in it: the fire of covenant, duty, protection, prayer, and faithful love.

    It says:

    Let the world rage at the door.
    Let the storms come hard and broad.
    We will lift the Bible higher.
    This house belongs to God.

    Musically, this is rugged country gospel with deep male choir strength, low drums, steady conviction, and the feel of a family standing together beneath the Word of God.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is not decorative religion.

    This is the sound of a household being claimed for the Lord.

    This House Belongs to God is Hymn Number 6 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this hymn continues the Iron Hymns sound: rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, household faith, and fatherly backbone.

    This hymn corresponds to the Sixth Right: The Right to Honour Family Order.

    After the first five hymns declare life, the worship of the one true God, the rejection of false gods, reverence for the Name of God, and the gathering of God’s people, this sixth hymn brings the declaration home.

    Not merely into church buildings.

    Not merely into public confession.

    But into the kitchen, the doorway, the cradle, the table, the marriage bed, the family room, the prayer chair, and the hard daily work of keeping a household under God.

    This House Belongs to God is a hymn of household consecration. It declares that the Christian home is not owned by the age, the screen, the street, the state, or the idols of unbelief. It belongs first to the Lord.

    This is a song for fathers needing courage, mothers holding fast, children needing blessing, kin needing refuge, and families learning how to stand in a world that wants to reorder everything.

    The heart of the hymn is clear:

    This house belongs to God
    Every room and every stone
    Every child beneath this roof
    Every seed of mercy sown

    This is not nostalgia.

    It is not sentimental family religion.

    It is a strong declaration that household order is holy ground. A home is not just a place where people sleep. It is a place where souls are formed, mercy is practised, children are guarded, Scripture is opened, forgiveness is learned, and Christ is honoured.

    The hymn carries warmth, but not softness. There is fire in it: the fire of covenant, duty, protection, prayer, and faithful love.

    It says:

    Let the world rage at the door.
    Let the storms come hard and broad.
    We will lift the Bible higher.
    This house belongs to God.

    Musically, this is rugged country gospel with deep male choir strength, low drums, steady conviction, and the feel of a family standing together beneath the Word of God.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is not decorative religion.

    This is the sound of a household being claimed for the Lord.

  • Meet Me At The House of God -Hymn-05 - From 12 Rights-05-THE RIGHT TO GATHER IN WORSHIP

    Send us Fan Mail

    Meet Me at the House of God is Hymn Number 5 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this hymn continues the Iron Hymns sound: rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, church-bell weight, and gathered worship fire.

    This hymn corresponds to the Fifth Right: The Right to Gather in Worship.

    After the first four hymns declare life, the worship of the one true God, the rejection of false gods, and reverence for the Name of God, this fifth hymn calls the people of God together.

    The Christian faith is not meant to be lived as a lonely performance.

    We are called into the household of faith, around the Word, among the saints, under the Lordship of Christ.

    Meet Me at the House of God is a song for weary believers making their way through rain, fog, trouble, grief, opposition, and ordinary life — still answering the bell, still opening the Bible, still gathering with the people of God.

    This is not a crowd chasing a show.
    This is not a market.
    This is not religious entertainment.

    This is the covenant people of God coming together to pray, sing, hear the Word, break bread, lift holy hands, bear one another’s burdens, and remember that we were never meant to walk alone.

    The heart of the hymn is simple:

    Meet me at the house of God
    Where the weary learn to stand
    Where the Word is bread and thunder
    Where the broken find a hand

    The hymn carries a warm but rugged spirit: a church bell across the valley, families on the road, elders in the pews, children at the door, saints coming through the fog, and a Bible waiting open.

    It is country gospel with a Highland edge — strong, reverent, communal, and full of grit.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is not sentimental religion.

    This is the sound of the people of God coming home.

  • The Name is Burning Fire-Hymn-04 - From 12 Rights-03-THE RIGHT TO REVERENCE THE NAME OF GOD

    Send us Fan Mail

    The Name Is Fire is Hymn Number 4 from The Rights We Sing: Twelve Hymns for the Twelve Christian Rights.

    Performed by Silas Creed & The Crescent Hill Conservatory Choir, recorded live in Louisville, Kentucky, this hymn continues the Iron Hymns sound: rugged country gospel, strong male baritone lead, deep male harmonies, low drums, holy reverence, and the fear of the Lord.

    This hymn corresponds to the Fourth Right: The Right to Reverence the Name of God.

    If Breath Belongs to God declares the sanctity of life, One Throne, One Name declares the worship of the one true God, and No Other Altar rejects false gods, then The Name Is Fire stands before the holiness of God’s Name.

    This is not a casual worship song.

    It is a warning, a confession, and a call to reverence.

    The Name of God is not a slogan.
    It is not a brand.
    It is not a lucky word.
    It is not a platform tool.
    It is not for profit, politics, pride, or performance.

    This hymn speaks against the careless use of holy things. It refuses the age that drags the sacred through the marketplace, puts God’s Name on whatever it wants to sell, and treats reverence as weakness.

    The answer of the song is clear:

    The Name is fire.
    The Name is flame.
    Do not speak it lightly.
    Do not drag it through shame.

    At its heart, The Name Is Fire is about the fear of the Lord — not panic, but holy awe. It is the trembling knowledge that God is not ours to manage, market, mock, or manipulate.

    He is the living God.

    His Name is weighty.

    His glory is not casual.

    This hymn calls believers back to reverence that is strong, clean, and deeply joyful. It reminds us that the Name of the Lord is not empty sound, but holy truth. It is life to those who fear Him, and judgment to those who profane Him.

    Musically, this is rugged country gospel with a prophetic edge: strong baritone lead, deep male choir, low drums, dark gospel weight, and a burning-bush atmosphere. It should feel like men standing barefoot on holy ground.

    This is not soft worship.

    This is not sentimental religion.

    This is the sound of holy fear returning.
