Matthew 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock.
contemporary southern chr
Songwriter of Contemporary Christian and Southern Gospel music.
I write and sing Christian music. I grew up in a country church in southern Oklahoma where the people loved to sing and praise God. I wrote the song, "Tiny Church House" in the early 80's as a result from the strong Christian influence I received from my parents and church as I was growing up on a dairy farm. I love to write Christian music. I sing many of my songs in Church but have never really tried to get them published/produced. I produced an album in the early 80's entitled "Except The Lord Build The House" and used the background music during revivals that I sung at. My desire is to continue writing music. I would love to have my music sung by individuals or groups that are dedicated to spreading God's love through music. I have no desire to perform! My music may be hard to classify into a single Christian genre. Much of it is Southern Gospel but some is more contemporary. In many cases, the production would determine its genre. I will place songs from my 80's album on the site and well as some of the more recent music I have written. I am not a "band". My music is produced very simply with computer software. I welcome any and all comments. I hope you enjoy the music and find Jesus in its content. Cary Fox (SongFox)

Story behind the song
A "...be ye doers of the word..." song.
Lyrics
Jesus was teachin' the people 'bout the Kingdom of Heaven. Preachin' kinda' heavy about love and attitude. Many were ushered straight into the Kingdom. But some just came for the ambiance and food. Sayin' Lord, Lord, let me in I'm long on effort and short on sin. I said, Lord, Lord, look at me. I'd be quite an addition you see. But Jesus said, you foolish man, I see you built your house on the sand. CHORUS Oh, Hearer of the Word Are you livin' it, Talkin' the talk? Doer of the Word, Are you livin' it, Walkin' the walk? Jesus was tellin' it straight to the Jewish leaders. As He was tested by the lawyers, scribes, and Pharisees. He knew they didn't come to be believers. So He silenced them with scripture and with ease. He said, Love your Lord so much That you give your all and you keep in touch. And love your neighbor then, Just like your very own skin. But to be a part of the flock You've got to build your house on the rock. CHORUS BRIDGE A lot of fat Christians have head knowledge. They can quote scripture, they can teach in college. But when it comes to application they're a little bit thin! A little too much self-righteous pride; Never quite learnin' to abide. And thrivin' in the schemin' world of men. CHORUS REPEAT CHORUS
