I am the proud father of two adult children. I have been playing the guitar for various church bands for over 25 years. All of these songs are original and reflect a preference to Christian music with a country rhythm.

Lyrics
They said it was flowing with milk and honey – the land that God promised to give A place so free from sin and oppression where we and our children could live We’d be able to worship the God of our fathers and eat the fruit of the land We’re not there yet but we’re pressing on while we’re led by His mighty hand I’m not going back to the land of bondage No more leeks and garlic for me From the cruel masters of sin and oppression O Lord I just want to be free I’m feasting on spiritual manna I know that my God will always provide I may not know what tomorrow may bring but I know that I’m safe by His side There’s some who say they are disappointed – that God hasn’t kept to His word They say we were doing just fine back in Egypt before all this freedom occurred They refuse to acknowledge the goodness of God and all the mercy He’s shown They tell me that God has forgotten His promise – and we’ll just have to do this alone We’re travelling on and the Land of Promise gets closer with each passing day There were people and problems that we had to face and they tried to get in our way Today we’re standing on Jordan’s banks and we’re amazed at all we can see I’ve heard that tomorrow we’re crossing over and that’s where I want to be
