The Future (2007)

This is my first and only guitar song so far...and this was a couple of years ago! I'm sure it could be played better if I had a friend who could play it for me! Be looking for a re-mix one day ya'll! This song was written after reading an email from a friend who had a near death experience with a storm. I was challenged by their words "I long for happiness I hope for joy", and realized that we have this in Christ. He gives us the Hope that can dry our eyes in the gales of life.

The Path You Have For Me (2010)

“Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony.”- GK Chesterton


I believe creation delights in Gods daily work, the same way a child delights in repetition. Each new day as God upholds the world, He does the same thing again and again yet He is making things new and breathing life into the world again and again.
//LYRICS//
God of our life, through the circling years
we place our trust in You
In all the past, through our hopes and our fears,
All your promises are true

Each new day
As the dawn sheds its light
All creation cries: “Do it again!”
In hope we groan, in the pains of this night
For your mercies are giving us sight!

God of today, through the paths we don’t know
We follow close to you
When we are weak, give us strength when you speak
We place our hope in you

Each new day
As the dawn sheds its light
All creation cries: “Do it again!”
In hope we groan, in the pains of this night
For your mercies are giving us sight!

God of our time that is yet to unfold
We wait and look for you
Lead us by faith when we can’t see ahead
We will abide in You

Be now for us
Our soul’s daily bread
We will feast and invite others in!
In darkest days
We will follow your heart
Knowing death cannot keep us apart
