The opening and title track from the exciting new kids concept album. "H.E Trains apologise for the timely running of this service and any inconvenience this may cause you". "ALL ABOARD...."
When our long journey ends, we shall see what God has prepared for us.... This is the final song from "All Aboard the Heaven Express".
This is a totally rocky way for kids (and adults) to learn Deuteronomy 6:5. It's become very popular with kids in Sunday School and that's even without the insane 'guitar' solo in the middle.
Wave those scarves in the air, stamp you feet to the rhythm and chant 'What a Champion' with hoardes of other Jesus Fans, and make that stadium shake.
Aharr. This be a song about findin' treasure - bootiful treasure that lasts forever. Yarr, and all ye landlubbers better remember that it be TALK LIKE A PIRATE DAY on Sptember 19th.

BOO! HISS! In the musical, this is Daniel’s first encounter with the baddies who would later plot to throw him into the lions' den. When the song fades out at the end, put your head close to the speakers and listen carefully (tee hee hee).
This 'Ethno Rock' styled congregational song appears on the Internet Evangelism Day website where there's sheet music etc. Check out: http://ied.gospelcom.net/music.php and scroll down to the bottom of section 4. IE Day is 27 April 2008.
Ethereal sounds of dizi (bamboo) flute, panpipes, marimbas, koto etc accompany this evocative song that follows the peaks and falls of a journey through life and how God sustains and strengthens us through turbulent 'winds' of trials and adversity.
Popular children's praise song with a deliciously catchy chorus served on a bed of marimba rhythm with panpipe side dish and seasoned with tribal percussion. Yummy.
The song is about writing songs. We often wonder why we bother yet can't help doing it. The words are by talented lyricist Deb Rempel. As soon as I saw those words a tune was burning inside me. This electro-pseudo-rap is the result. Let's groove.
This Palm Sunday song's dynamics of a bouncy chorus, stately verse and simple but profound words makes it an ideal song for family worship on Palm Sunday.

Daniel and his friends go to sleep, not knowing that it'll be their last night in Zion. Daniel dream's of a sheep but then the dream darkens, AND THEN....(ooh, I shouldn't spoil it)
The first mournful section to this beautiful song is to be sung by Daniel's friends: Mischael and Hananiah who, in the show, are to be female singers. Daniel then sings the final uplifting section with choir to the final prayer of hope.
In the musical, the lions introduce the audience to King Nebuchadnezzar who has trouble getting his head through doors. As the lions say: let the verbal diarrhea flow...
In the musical Daniel and his friends refuse to eat meat served to Babylonian idols. Monsieur Ashpenaz was worried that they might look unfit. To prove their fitness they had this contest. The announcer is a lion (of course).
A lion leans against a piano played by another lion and sings. They are joined by the king and other lions all singing in top hat and tails. Just another night in a musical really.
Although Belshazzar is the most wretched character in the musical 'DANIEL -WATCH OUT!', this song is one of my favourites due to the demented vocals and even more demented guitar, particularly the solo in the middle.
BOO HISS again. The baddies are plottting to 'book a one way ticket into the Lion's den' for Daniel. However they can't frame him with a crime because Daniel is 'squeaky clean' - but he does have a bad habit of praying!...
THIS IS IT! The part where Daniel goes to the Lions' den. The lions are treating it as some kind of game show where the prize is a meal with them 'pussy-cats'. The king is reluctant, the lions are impatient and sing many funnies whilst waiting.
In Zion, Daniel encourages his friends by singing this song based on Psalm 46 - but the Babylonians are just around the corner...
This dark impressionistic piece was shortlisted in 'The art of persecution' competition run by Open Doors. I suggest you play this piece whilst viewing their online gallery at http://www.theartofpersecution.com/exhibition/gallery/index.html
The title of the piece is as long as the piece itself. One day I'd like to compose a symphonic suite based on Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon; meanwhile this 1 min 30 sec of orchestral bombast gives a taster.
This is a new carol for Christmas and Advent. This recording is a demo for a church service where it was very popular. I hope to re-record and release asa single for Christmas 2008.
This started out as a backing track for a kids choir but my son liked to chill out to it. So, after a few tweaks it's now an ambient instrumental. Have a Cool Yule! (BTW This is the tune most used in the UK).
This is a congregational version of the song that originally featured in my DANIEL musical. Unlike the other version (below) it is not rudely interrupted by invading Babylonians.
