2008. First of all, how on earth did I reach these notes?

It was a time when I was writing songs from bible verses, and I was thinking how the Shepherd knows the voice of His sheep. He knows my voice, the voice that cries out in pain or happiness. The voice that sings Him these melodies and so, so many songs NO ONE will ever even hear. But He hears and He knows. It also speaks to our faith in Him. Even when I can't understand why things are happening, I KNOW the melody of His heart for me. Every trial is to draw us to Himself.

Lyrics:

The Lord is my Shepherd,
I shall not want.
The water is plenty,
Full is my lot.

God is my Father,
His mercy is true,
His grace keeps me steady,
His love sees me through.

My heart knows the melody,
The psalms are on my mind.
Oh do you know my Shepherd,
When I'm lost, He will find.

What my mind cannot fathom,
His wisdom (peace) will surpass,
Oh do you know my Shepherd.
He sees you, and wants to know you,
to draw you to Himself.

STORIES FROM MY YOUTH.

Also fair warning, some elements of the home recordings are cringe-worthy (timing, drum kit?). So great to be able to look back and say...thank God I’ve improved since then. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

Maybe I'll re-record with a voice that is now in its early 30s and a spirit that has weathered so much more.
