IF MY PEOPLE

Introducing our latest single, "Sins Forgiven" - a powerful anthem of empowerment and divine grace. This song is a testament to the strength we find in the light of God, a journey from the shadows of past mistakes into the warmth of forgiveness and renewal.

"Sins Forgiven" isn't just a musical piece; it's an experience, a reflection on the profound impact of divine love and mercy. Each note, each lyric, is imbued with the message of hope, redemption, and the transformative power of faith.

In a world where we often find ourselves lost in the darkness of doubt and regret, "Sins Forgiven" serves as a beacon of light, reminding us that we are not alone. Through the grace of God, we find the strength to rise above our past, to embrace our flaws, and to step into a future filled with endless possibilities.

Let this song be your companion on the journey towards self-empowerment and spiritual awakening. "Sins Forgiven" is more than just a melody; it's a call to all who seek peace, love, and redemption. Join us in celebrating the light that guides us through the darkest times, and discover the power of forgiveness that lies within us all.

Sins Forgiven

A reflective Christian country ballad that speaks directly to the searching heart. Built in a gentle 6/8 rhythm, this song opens with soft piano and finger-picked acoustic guitar, carrying a deep, soul-centered vocal that asks hard questions about faith, shame, and redemption. A mournful fiddle weaves between the lines, rising as the message turns from conviction to hope.

The chorus becomes a call to come forward — a reminder that grace is waiting, forgiveness is real, and no one has to remain in the shadows. As the song builds, layered harmonies lift the message higher, leading into an instrumental moment that feels like a prayer without words. The final chorus swells with assurance and peace, settling into a quiet, reverent close.

This is a song for anyone who has ever doubted, wandered, or longed for a fresh beginning — and discovered that redemption was always within reach.

Matthew 5:14–16
“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”

Romans 1:16
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes…”

1 John 1:6–7
“If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.”

Psalm 42:1–2
“As the deer pants for the water brooks, So pants my soul for You, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God…”

James 1:6–8
“But let him ask in faith, with no doubting… he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind…”

Revelation 3:20
“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.”

Most of my music centers on Jesus Christ and God’s amazing grace. I primarily write in the Country Christian style, but every now and then I like to branch out when the mood strikes. You might hear touches of alternative Christian rock (I did grow up in the ’60s and ’70s), contemporary gospel, or even a hint of bluegrass gospel along the way. From time to time, I also step outside faith-based music into modern bluegrass or country.

One of my current projects is an album inspired by poems I wrote to my wife while she was deployed during Desert Storm in 1991. After all these years, I’m finally adapting them into songs — a project that’s been close to my heart for decades.

I was fortunate to play bass and sometimes piano in my late teens and early twenties for a country gospel group known as The Gospel Crusaders. We performed primarily at churches across Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, North Carolina, and Tennessee. Then life happened, and I stepped away from performing for almost 50 years. During this time, I started focusing more on writing lyrics and music. In 2017, I picked up my mandolin and joined God’s Country in Largo, Florida. The group disbanded in 2023 when several members moved out of state, but we’re planning a reunion performance in 2026.

Even when I venture beyond my main focus of sharing the gospel through song, I strive to keep my lyrics honest, heartfelt, and sometimes just plain fun. Believe it or not, I’m not in this to make money — I write as an outlet to share the stories and experiences of life over the past 70 years. I write the lyrics for most of my songs, though I’ve been blessed to collaborate with a few talented friends along the way.

I use Studio One to produce my music and have built a large library of loops over the years. Some vocals are mine; others are performed by friends. And yes, I also use AI-generated voices or enhancements to vocals when needed.  I am in my 7th decade on earth and my voice doesn’t have the range it once had, plus I don’t have immediate access to female vocalists.  There’s a lot of debate about AI in music, but for me, the goal has never changed — to spread God’s love and joy. Technology is simply a tool, much like the studio innovations that have shaped music for the past fifty years.

In today’s music, many well-known and touring artists now use pre-recorded tracks and digital stems during live concerts to fill out harmonies, recreate orchestral parts, or trigger sound effects — it’s all part of modern performance. Whether it’s a backing track on stage or an AI vocal line in the studio, the heart behind the music still matters most.

I don’t believe AI will ever replace real musicians, but those who learn to embrace it and use it to enhance their craft will continue to flourish in the music industry.

I play bass, trumpet, guitar, piano, mandolin, and I’m currently working to get up to speed on the fiddle. You may not agree with my take on AI, and that’s okay. My purpose isn’t profit — it’s to share the message of God’s love through whatever tools I have, whether that’s a guitar, a loop, or an algorithm that helps me clean up a mix.

As W. Edwards Deming once said,
“It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory.”

Technology will keep evolving, and so will we. My greatest hope is that one of these songs touches someone’s heart or makes a difference in their life. If God can use even one of them to do that, then I’ve accomplished what I set out to do.

God bless you all.
