psalm27
Artist picture
Ive written hundreds of songs over the past 40 years. I love Jesus, the word of God, people and music. I play guitar, bass and sing. Thank you for listening!
My music is about the new life found in Jesus Christ. He is our access to the Father and is worthy of all praise and glory. He has taken our sins away by the selfless sacrifice of His death upon the cross. He is deserving of songs and worship. The sound of my music is influenced by the delta blues and artists that have followed through the 60s and 70s who have taken this music and written folk, Americana, and Rock n Roll. Thank you for listening to my songs, and also the collaboration projects, thank you to all who contributed to these songs..

Story behind the song
I was reading psalm 27 today, it is a psalm of David and it really blessed me today so I wrote some music for it. I know many songs have gone before, but I think one more would be just fine for these awesome words of David.
Lyrics
One Thing (Psalm 27) The Lord is my light and my salvation Whom shall I fear The Lord is the strength of my life Of whom shall I be afraid Though an host should encamp against me My heart shall not fear Though war should rise against me In this will I be confident One thing have I desired of the Lord That will I seek after That I may dwell in the house of the Lord All the days of my life One thing have I desired of the Lord That will I seek To behold the beauty of the Lord And to inquire in His temple In His pavilion in the secret of His tabernacle Shall He hide me He shall set me upon a rock And now shall my head be lifted up Above mine enemies round about me therefore Will I offer in His tabernacle Sacrifices of joy I will sing yea I will sing praises Unto the Lord Hear oh Lord when I cry One thing have I desired of the Lord That will I seek after That I may dwell in the house of the Lord All the days of my life One thing have I desired of the Lord That will I seek To behold the beauty of the Lord And to inquire in His temple All the days of my life All the days of my life All the days of my life Music by: John Matteson Leadsheet: Intro: D A D Verse: G D Bm A G D Bm A G D Bm G G A D Chorus: Bm D A G D A D A Bm G D A D (Repeat) Ending: D A D (X3)
