Fuel on the Fire is the third release and the second studio album by Christian singer -songwriter Morgan Cryar , released in 1986 on Star Song Records. The title of the album comes from the first single "Pray In the U.S.A." in which Cryar sings "they're pouring fuel on the fire/tryin' to stop what God desires." The song would become a signature song for Cryar and would top the Christian Rock chart. Cryar co-wrote the song with guitarist Ty Tabor of the hard rock band King's X. Fuel On The Fire 's whole album is rock-oriented than his 1984 debut Keep No Secrets mixing rock songs ("I Need the Rock" and "I Gotta Know") with some pop ballads ("Underneath Your Feet" and "Hideaway") also including the lite reggae pop song "Sibling Rivalry." The album is produced by Roy Salmond and with songwriting collaborations from Tabor and fellow King's X drummer and lead singer Doug Pinnick as well as John Andrew Schreiner. Fuel On The Fire peaked at number 23 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart making his first album chart appearance. It is the only album by Cryar to be made available digitally. In 1987, Cryar was nominated for two Dove Awards for New Artist of the Year (originally titled the Horizon Award) and Short Form Music Video of the Year for "Pray In the U.S.A." On May 28, 2025, Girder Music reissued and remastered Fuel on the Fire as a collector's edition on CD for a limited time featuring an 8-page booklet with complete lyrics on a jewel case, a beautifully designed collectors sleeve, and a collectors card.

Keep No Secrets is the second release and national debut album by Christian singer -songwriter Morgan Cryar , released in late 1984 on Star Song Records. Keep No Secrets was, according to Mark Allen Powell on his book Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music , "an acoustic pop masterpiece." There was nothing acoustic about the album. It was more of a contemporary pop album featuring programming and drum machine arrangements. Produced by Jonathan David Brown who is best known for producing albums by Twila Paris and Petra . The album featured radio hits "I Get Carried Away" and "A Few of My Old Friends" and did moderately well on Christian radio. It also features the ballad "Holy Fire" with guest vocals by Jayne Farrell of the husband and wife duo Farrell and Farrell and written by Cryar and Paris. The album has not been released on CD. The tracks "Holy Fire," "I Get Carried Away" and "A Few of My Old Friends" are the only tracks to appear on CD and digitally on his 1998 compilation album What Sin? A YouTube link to listen to the album is posted below this article. In 2025, Keep No Secrets was reissued and remastered for a limited time on CD by Girder Music.

Songs from the Loft is a various artists compilation album released on September 20, 1993 by Reunion Records and, at the time, distributed by Word Records. The album was produced by Gary Chapman and Jim Dineen with Chapman's then-wife Amy Grant and her current manager Jennifer Cooke serving as executive producers. Songs from the Loft started as a project for Amy and Gary as they gathered teenagers and youth in their barn for these youth group-style meetings and sang simple worship songs. Grant recorded the track "Hope Set High" on her 1991 album Heart in Motion and dedicated it to the youth group that attends their meetings. On this album, Grant wrote the ten tracks, including "Hope Set High," along with CCM artist and songwriter Wes King co-writing on four of them, with "We Believe in God" as the lead single. Other artists participating are Chapman, King, CCM-TV host Amy Delanie, Michael W. Smith , Kim Hill , Ashley Cleveland, Grant's back-up singer Donna McElroy, Susan Ashton and Michael James. The album peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart and in 1994, won the Dove Award for Praise and Worship Album of the Year, given to the participating artists and producers Chapman and Dineen at the 25th GMA Dove Awards. "We Believe in God," written by Grant and King, was nominated twice for Song of the Year in 1994 and 1995. In 2015, Grant revisited Songs from the Loft with the release of a limited edition extended play (EP) featuring seven tracks and was sold exclusively at a weekend event at her farm and later at her website www.amygrant.com . After more than 30 years since its original release, Song from the Loft is now available for the first time on music streaming platforms and for digital download purchasing on March 22, 2024 by way of Amy Grant Productions.

What Matters Most is the sixth studio album by Christian singer/songwriter/ guitarist Wes King . It was released on October 16, 2001 by Word Records' Word Artisan label. King and Ed Cash produced five songs each. King returned to making music after a four year absence. Between his last release A Room Full of Stories and this album, King collaborated with fellow musicians and songwriters Phil Keaggy and Scott Denté of Out of the Grey on the mostly-instrumental album Invention and went on tour. In 1999, King co-wrote with Michael W. Smith about the Columbine High School shooting on the track "This Is Your Time." King won Dove Awards for the above mentioned projects. King wanted to spend time with his family. His wife had given birth to twin sons after the release of A Room Full of Stories . What Matters Most is a reflection of those moments King spent with his twin sons. The songs focus on advice for Christian living, like the title track and "There Is a God." CCM Magazine has called this album "a simple, stirring and acoustically stellar collection of well-crafted--often just downright sweet--songs about life and love and faith." King wrote all ten songs. This was King's only release on the Word Artisan label.   In 2005, King was diagnosed with lymphoma and underwent many months of extremely difficult treatments and years of side-effects. King is now cancer free and is feeling well enough to spend time in his studio again, although he has not released an album of new material since. He has been behind the scenes as a studio musician and a songwriter. Track listing All songs written by Wes King. 1. Spin You Round -3:38 2. What Matters Most -4:04 3. In a Moment -4:55 4.
