Rock, pop, country and contemporary Christian is my current aim, though my style can range from soft ballads to heavy metal.
Brief history: I've been writing songs since 1978, spanning various genres. Most tend to fall into the pop/adult contemporary category. For the past several years, I've turned my focus more to Contemporary Christian music; it's what I enjoy listening to, and it gives my music some real meaning and purpose ... at least to me ... and hopefully to those who listen to it. Looking back now, I see religious connotations in some of my older material, as well.

Story behind the song
The people in a church I once went to inspired me to write this song. They seemed to live the message of this song.
Lyrics
The image of our King Hanging, nailed against the cross Is a lesson to us all His pain and suffering – A message of His mighty love That lives in each of us And like the river runs into the sea We must take His love to those in need CHORUS: Let the love of Jesus overflow (Let love overflow) Like the blood of Jesus long ago (Let love overflow) Let the love of Jesus fill your soul And overflow (Like the blood of Jesus, just let the love of Jesus) The tomb could not contain This awesome power of love It was just too much So Jesus rose again To give us hope and give us peace That we can be redeemed And like the grave we can’t keep Jesus down His spirit is alive and all around, yeah [CHORUS] BRIDGE: There’s no time to lose So let His spirit loose On your neighbor, friend and foe Just show His wondrous ways And His amazing grace Will take over, yeah Oooh, oooh, oooh Now, let the love of Jesus take control [CHORUS] CHORUS PART II: Let the love of Jesus take control (Let love take control) Let the love of Jesus make you whole (Let love make you whole) Let the love of Jesus fill your soul And overflow (Like the blood of Jesus, just let the love of Jesus overflow) REFRAIN: Let the love, just like the blood Let the love, I said, just like the blood Let the love of Jesus overflow (Let love overflow) Whoa, whoa, let the love; like the blood Let the love of Jesus … like the blood of Jesus … Let the love of Jesus overflow (Like the blood of Jesus; just let the love of Jesus overflow) Let the love; I said, just like the blood Let the love of Jesus overflow —Copyright 2002 Mark Wallace
