easy listening contemporary Christian ministry dedicated to healing and forgiveness through music.
Singer and songwriter, Lynn Geyer, presents uplifting music for use in Christian settings. Lynn develops youth programs, such as her nationally recognized Journey to Forgiveness, an examination of conscience which includes a full length 17 song CD. Much of her ministry is devoted to the power of prayer in forgiveness and healing. Her easy alto lends itself to quiet services using traditional or contemporary music as well as charismatic prayer meetings. Lynn has recorded three albums. Music of the Light, her first solo project, was released in January, 2001. The title track received a Unity Award from UCMVA as Praise and Worship Song of the Year 2001. She has performed in countless churches on the east coast, as well as in conferences throughout the US, Canada, Spain, Italy, Australia, Germany and Brazil. Her latest project is Christmas All Year Through, a collection of Advent and Christmas songs. Shes the President of CAM, the Catholic Association of Music, founded by John Michael Talbot providing guidance for Catholic musicians in public ministry. Lynn also produces an annual concert in NY at Carnegie Hall, Merry Christmas New York City to celebrate the real reason for the season. She's looking ahead to producing Hallelujah, New York City for the same reason regarding the disprespect people have for Easter

Story behind the song
I was riding on a train when these words came flooding over me, compelling me to write them down. I was surprised by them since I haven't got an unusual Marian devotion. The words came easily, though, with little editing and Ron Zabrocki just as quickly played the simple music that accompanies the lyric. This song is a asong of praise and thanksgiving as we would imagine Mary singing after the birth of Jesus.
Lyrics
A Promise Kept Now my time has finally come This moment of new life I thank you for this child, Lord He is favored in your sight. So have I been favored, too To bear your holy son A promise kept from ancient days The Messiah now is born. *And I sing a song of glory, Lord Proclaim for all to see Raised up in my lowliness You have done great things for me! I magnify your holy name Exalt you, mighty Lord On my knees beside the manger, now My God, your will is done. And I sing a song of glory, Lord Proclaim for all to see Raised up in my lowliness You have done great things for me!* The living world forever changed By this perfect holy child From eternity, the Savior came As God stepped into time.*
