Music has always been a special joy to me. While still a child I enjoyed classical guitar and piano lessons. While growing up I had opportunity to play for our church youth group. More recently I have begun to write songs. They vary widely in style and are not confined to any one genre. My goal is to please the One who is the song-giver; to honour Him in all I write and play. It is my sincere desire that the Lord uses the music I write to draw people closer to Himself. Wherever you are at in relationship to God, may this music touch your heart and be a blessing to you.

Chorus based on Psalm 55:16-18
Lyrics
Chorus I call to the Lord ) And the Lord saves me. ) 2x Ev’nin’, morn and noon I cry out to Him He hears my voice And rescues me. Verse 1 (Genesis 12-21) God called Abraham To leave his people’s land And go to a place he did not know. Abraham obeyed, Left his home behind And traveled to where God did show. There he built an altar And called upon the Lord, On the name of the Lord, Eternal God. Repeat chorus Verse 2 (Exodus 3-4) God called unto Moses, “Come over here to Me, And listen to what I will say. I hear your people’s cry, I will use you to rescue them, See, I am telling you this day.” Moses was afraid, But then he called upon the Lord, On the name of the Lord, I Am. Repeat chorus Verse 3 (I Kings 18) The Lord spoke to Elijah, “Gather everyone and those who By serving Baal have made themselves impure.” Elijah said, “You call to your god And I will call upon the Lord, The god who sends down fire is God for sure.” They did as he had said, God answered Elijah’s call And the people cried, “The Lord- He is God!” Bridge (1 Chron. 16:8-14; Joel 2:32) Give thanks unto the Lord Call upon His name, Tell of all the wonders He has done! In His name is strength. Let your heart rejoice - For He is the Lord, our God. Everyone who calls On the name of the Lord Surely will be saved. Repeat chorus Tag: He hears my voice And rescues me.
