I'm a songwriter with a few tools, a love for a good hook, and the desire to make music. I have been writing for years, but when I became a Christain, suddenly almost all of my work became to, for or about God. It's not something I conciously chose, it just happened. We write what we're given I suppose.

A dream of Jim's. My second collaboration on Christian Songwriting Organisation
Lyrics
I had a dream the other night That seemed so real to me I read First Thessalonians Before I went to sleep I dreamed of getting dressed for work Was startled by a sound A shout and then a trumpet blast And I had left the ground We left the atmosphere of earth The raptured ones of Christ We saw our Jesus there in space Bathed in glowing light Halleluiah He’s come back We shouted out our praise Jesus smiled with arms stretched wide I clearly heard Him say: (chorus) Follow me and fly away To heaven’s great reward My children are all here with me I am your king and Lord Follow me and fly away Your mansions are prepared Heaven’s gates are open wide Nothing can compare I woke up and was wet with sweat What an awesome dream Had I been shown a glimpse of things? An end times mystery? Jesus came and filled my sleep With visions of His grace It seemed so real I can't ignore The message that He gave (chorus) (bridge) How I long to see the time When I will fly away One day that dream will come true I close my eyes and pray And listen, To hear him say
