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.

Song of someone down but full of hope
Lyrics
New life around the bend 2012 By Donnie Priest When boozes and pills rule your day Its a dangerous game to play And youre not sure, which way to go On the path of lease resistances Thats no kind of existence What tomorrow brings, you dont know (Chorus) When youre lying in the gutter Your mind filled with all that clutter No place to look for a friend When you need a second chance You cant get a second glance But I know there's a new life around the bend Music soothes the savage beast Thats my way, out of this place Singing and playing my guitar Ill escape this incarceration Music is my rehabilitation I know Im destine, to go far (Chorus) When youre lying in the gutter Your mind filled with all that clutter No place to look for a friend When you need a second chance You cant get a second glance But I know there's a new life around the bend (Bridge) I know in the great beyond Loved ones that have gone on I hold them close in my heart I hope to do them proud Singing out strong and loud I pray my music echoes off the stars (Chorus) When youre lying in the gutter Your mind filled with all that clutter No place to look for a friend When you need a second chance You cant get a second glance But I know there's a new life around the bend I know theres a new life around the bend
