Inspirational Christian songs of praise/worship/encouragement/scripture in a simple, engaging, singable style.
My name is Cyndi Aarrestad, and I am a singer/songwriter, wife and mom living on a farm near a small community in Northern Saskatchewan, Canada. I am married to Dennis, and together we have raised three awesome young adults. I grew up in a Christian family where singing and music were always a part of our home. Both of my parents played multiple instruments, and all of us children learned to play several as well. We often sang at seniors homes and other special events. At about age 14 I started writing songs on the piano, and later learned the guitar which is now what I often play and compose with. Many of the songs I write are simple praise choruses and childrens songs, but I have also written numerous full-length songs with a style I would describe as a combination of praise/inspirational/country gospel. I have also written and performed many songs customized for special events, such as weddings, dedications, anniversaries, family reunions, Christmas programs, funerals, etc.. I have written over 2,400 songs, and have made 11 recordings in a friends home studio, with my latest 18 recorded at my home, as well as 3 professionally recorded ones over the past 4 years. I also had one CD recorded by the CBC for their radio show Road Records after being chosen in their contest, and I had a song chosen by a Nashville company to be featured in their demo showcase, which was made available to publishers and performers throughout North America. I have had some recent international radio exposure, including having several songs on the European Country Music charts, and an internet presence on various music sites. My latest album, "Restore", is releasing May, 2025. I post new choruses and songs on: https://www.facebook.com/CyndiAarrestadsMusicPage or https://www.facebook.com/Cyndi-Aarrestad-Scripture-Songs-To-Share-435658573172003/ as well as on my soundcloud page: https://soundcloud.com/cyndiaar On my website, www.cyndiaarrestad.ca I have all my music available as well as a blog of inspiring quotes, scriptures and articles. I believe God has given me a gift to write music, and I am looking to share these songs, wherever He opens up an opportunity. My desire is to honor & glorify Him by sharing what He has given to hopefully encourage and edify the body of Christ. Website: www.cyndiaarrestad.ca

Story behind the song
As I thought about struggles different people were going through, I was reminded of how we don't have to face anything alone, because when we have Christ in our hearts, He is with us all the time!
Lyrics
JESUS BY MY SIDE 1) Life is uncertain, we dont know what it will bring But those who love Jesus can be certain of one thing His love surrounds us, we are in His watchful care Whatever comes our way, Hes promised to be there Cho) So Ill face every storm that comes, with Jesus by my side I will never be alone, for He is my constant guide And no matter where I go, He will always light the way I will put my hand in Jesus hand, and walk with Him each day 2) Some days the sun shines, and some days our skies are grey But God is eternal, and His word will never change Through every circumstance, He said Hed never leave He helps and strengthens those who ask Him and believe Bri) I know that Jesus is my friend On Him I always can depend
