I am a published songwriter and have been composing music and lyrics for most of my adult life. When I turned my life over to the Lord, I fell in love with His Word and soon began using it for song lyrics.

I primarily write in various styles of contemporary Christian music as my way of expressing how I feel about the love and mercy of Jesus.

I am not a prolific songwriter nor regarded as a great talent by any stretch, but my marginal success has exceeded my fondest expectations. I am keenly aware of God's grace and am so grateful for this wonderful, creative experience.

I don't presume to be fulfilling some high, spiritual purpose. In fact, I usually write selfishly, either for fun or for emotional comfort. But deep down, I always hope and pray that others will feel the love of Christ as they are uplifted and encouraged by my songs.

As much as I love music, songwriting is not my life. Who I am is more accurately defined by the family the Lord has given me. I am a wife, mother and grandmother of six earth angels. I believe that every good and perfect gift comes from our Father, the God of Israel who created heaven and earth.

Anyone interested in using one of my original songs for any purpose may contact me at 318-742-1894 or e-mail fredatappmusic@bellsouth.net.

Shalom,
Freda
