Jesus, Joy of Man's Desiring - Irish Style

Today is #NationalDayofHappiness. About two weeks ago, I saw a video (link in comments) of a sweet little girl named Lily at Giant Food Store helping bag groceries. She was so happy helping someone she didn't know. The cashier was so gracious and kind... the whole thing just made me happy.
I don't write "pop" style music much and I am barely a white belt in the recording arts (forgive the sloppy mixing) but here's the song inspired by this little girl's smile. Special shout out to my nephew Jake who helped me with the vocals. This is not his normal style of music (he's waaaaay cooler) but I twisted his arm and he lent his talents. Go check his stuff out on Spotify (link in the comments) and make him happy. 
Lily, whoever you are, keep smiling. You make us happy.

You Make Me Happy

My orchestration for a Kid's Adventure movie involving a boat chase.  Recorded with London Symphony

Boat Chase - Movie scene

A Debtor to Mercy Alone - Words by Augustus Montague Toplady (1740-1778)/ Tune by me.

1. A debtor to mercy alone,
Of covenant mercy I sing,
Nor fear, with God’s righteousness on,
My person and off’rings to bring.
The terrors of law and of God
With me can have nothing to do;
My Savior’s obedience and blood
Hide all my transgressions from view.

2. The work which His goodness began,
The arm of His strength will complete;
His promise is Yea and Amen,
And never was forfeited yet.
Things future, nor things that are now,
Not all things below or above,
Can make Him His purpose forego,
Or sever my soul from His love.

3. My name from the palms of His hands
Eternity will not erase;
Imprest on His heart, it remains
In marks of indelible grace.
Yes! I to the end shall endure,
As sure as the earnest is giv’n;
More happy, but not more secure,
The glorified spirits in heav'n.

A Debtor To Mercy Alone
