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 came to the Lord with my needs, I realized just how amazing it is that God is always there to hear and answer. He is never too busy and He knows what's in our hearts, but He's just waiting for us to come to Him and make our requests known. So...this song came out of that realization, from a thankful heart!
Lyrics
I CALL ON YOU 1. Here I am again Lord, pouring out my heart to You There is nowhere else I know I always can turn to He who never sleeps or slumbers, watches o'er His own A loving Father listening for His children's call to home Cho. I call on You, and Lord You always hear my faintest cry You never turned away, Your presence never is denied You hear my voice, You know my heart And You know just what I need I call on You, and Lord You answer me 2. Lord Your word declares You'll answer me before I call You see every thought that's in my mind, You know it all But compassion moves Your heart Lord, when you hear your people cry And Your mercy leads us, to the well that won't run dry Bri. In the dark night, in the daylight, when I seem alone Lord You hear me, You are near me, my cries reach the Throne
