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..

Lyrics

In My Hands I Hold The Burden

In my hands I hold the burden
All my thoughts, my worries, my fears 
In my hands I hold the burden My sin, my plans, my treasure my tears

I offer them to You, my Lord 
Take them I don't want them anymore 

In my hands I hold the burden 
All my thoughts, my worries, my fears 
In my hands I hold the burden My sin, my plans, my treasure, my my tears, 

I offer them to You, my Lord, 
Take them I don't want them anymore 
I give them to You, my Lord 
Take them I don't want them anymore 

And I will stand washed in Your light
I will stand worthy in Your sight
I will lift my hands in praise

Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name

And I will stand washed in Your light
I will stand worthy in Your sight
I will lift my hands in praise

Holy is Your Name 
Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name

Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name

Holy is Your Name
Holy is Your Name
