I have been writing from the time I could play my guitar at 12 years old, I'm 72 now and for the last few years I've been writing Christian music.
I'm a good ole boy from Georgia. In the early 70's I started a cover band, The Re-Creation. We played local gigs for several years. We all started having families and other jobs paid a lot more, so we gave up on music. I've dabbled in song writing over the years. I've been a Christian for a long time but, and as I've gotten older, I feel I have a calling from God to write Christian music. There are enough of my old lady done left with my dog songs. I'm sharing the good news of Jesus and His plan for salvation to an increasingly damaged world. My hash tag is #JesusLovesYou The love of Jesus comes before everything else.

Story behind the song
The night we met while my band was practicing on my mom's carport
Lyrics
Jesus and you 2025 Donnie Priest/August 76 Music It was a hot summer's night On my mama's car port The band was practicing there You walked up in those shorts When I looked into your eyes Should have known you're the one That was fifty years ago When our story had begun I've dreamed of writing songs Performing on the stage My music on the radio Being all the rage All of that was not to be I was just a working stiff Putting in long hours On the midnight shift (chorus) I don't need riches I don't need fame I don't want a mansion Or a private plane Life's more than possessions I know this is true All I need in my life Is Jesus and you We've lived life together For all these years Had each other's back Through laughter and tears Jesus is our Savior On Him we depend His love for all of us Will never end (bridge) I'll write you this song Play the cords in this guitar How the world spins too fast And life can be so hard Grateful God has blessed us He holds our family tight And how God has graced me With you in my life (outro) I don't need riches I don't need fame I don't want a mansion Or a private plane Life's more than possessions I know this is true All I need in my life Is Jesus and you All I need in my life Is Jesus and you
