Pour Out Your Spirit 2022 with guitars

I wrote this song a while back now, using the words from an old Salvation Army song and putting a new musical arrangement to them.  This was recorded by the Ambassadors of Holiness session in 2009 with vocals by the amazing Catherine Mackenroth and myself.

Fill My Craving Heart

Demo of a song I wrote today after having a dream of playing an opening song for worship..

We Come... demo 23:12:2022 11.15 pm

Lyrics

Verse 1
The first time I saw you
You captured me like no other
I fell hard and fast
My heart came back to life

Verse 2
I never thought I’d love again
I closed my heart completely
You made me feel alive 
And I started to dream again

Chorus
I know we both have history
So much hurt and so much pain
But when I’m with you, nothing else matters
I want you to be my last;
My love, my life, my forever
My love, my life, my forever
My love, my life, my forever
Forsaking all others, forsaking all others, forsaking all others, I am yours.

Verse 3
We spoke of so many things
I spoke so much truth from my heart
I gave you my future
And trusted I had yours

Verse 4
Together we’re legendary
We are just so good together 
We’d just end up laughing 
I’ll never let you go

Bridge
I promise to be here
I’ll love you forever
When you’re sick, I’ll be beside you
High five you when things are good
I’ll support you in all you do
Travel the world with you
Hold your hand in old age
Race you down the hallway on our scooters in our nursing home
On your tough days I’ll be there
Our broken pieces fit perfectly together
Be honest with me and hold me tight
Together we’ll get through anything

Forsaking All Others

As a part of a youth project a while ago now, a few young Salvo's wrote this song as a part of an Easter Camp.

Homelessness Song

A song I wrote & recorded back in 2009 in the basement of my training college on an old 12 track very late at night/early morning. No editing or auto tuning as you can tell 🫣

Lily was telling us all about Pa's cat, so I captured it and made it into a ring tone.
Lyrics tell us that; George, no George! Cat, Pa's cat (x2) Cat!

Lily Loves George

Dreamer is the first song I ever wrote back in 1997.  It took me 10 years to be able to get what was in my head into an actual demo and this is the final product.

Dreamer

A few years ago I played around and did a rough (and is it rough!) recording of this beautiful song that has such amazing words which mean so much to so many.  God is love, I know I feel.

Depth Of Mercy

A song I was given by God which I believe is to be a part of a musical....  The first half of the song is ideally to be a female voice and a male for the last section

Answers from Above

Jono Stubbington and Simon Mapleback decided to record Jono's arrangement of the founders song, Boundless Salvation late one night at Melbourne's Salvation Army Training College the night before he flew back to the UK. It's a rough recording but we had a lot of fun in the process. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
