Hard edged and lyrical with an old fashioned acid rock tone...mindful of Pink Floyd but also very different.
christian contemporary inspirational worship
Solo artist using home studio.
Contemporary Christian Rock and Worship. I play solo to lead worship or enhance a church social activity, usually covering familiar or popular contemporary songs. Artists covered include Tommy Walker, Lincoln Brewster, Tree 63, Hillsong United, Third Day, and others of like them. I've only written a few songs, but I will be adding the originals here. I'd like to let you hear some examples of the cover songs, but licensing to do so is more expensive and more difficult than it's worth.

Story behind the song
As Christians, we've all been there - that place where we chose one more day outside God's will rather than submit. The folly of it, and the struggle to return to Him.
Lyrics
When I'm feeling As though I've been forsaken It's a measure of the distance Down a road that I have taken My foolish ways confound me And my steps have led me far away from You. My thoughts are reeling And my lonely heart is breakin' I'm sure it's just an awful dream From which I can't awaken Rich rags of this world surround me Willfully I've gone astray from You (Chorus) From You. I've tossed the good things from my life Pushed you far away Your absence cuts me like a knife From you came my deliverance Salvation I can only get from You When I'm feelin' Ain't no reasons left to live Like I'm living life on empty Ain't got nothing left to give My own lies deceive me My eyes blind to the light that comes from You With all my dirty dealin And the follies of my pride I forget I only need to turn To find You at my side But one more day to have my way My own heart keeps me set apart from You (chorus) You said You'd never leave And You've never let me down And if I'd just believe You'd help me turn my life around Every time I've asked You've answered How could I forget these gifts from You I'm turning toward You now Though it's hard to bend this knee Have mercy on this stubborn heart Reach out and set me free Wash away these selfish stains Save me from my turn away from You From You Came all the good things in my life Fill me with Your grace Make me a living sacrifice From You came my deliverance Salvation I could only get from You Every breath I take comes from You
