Many genres, Contemporary Christian, Lyrics, instrumentals
I write my own songs ;) I have a very diverse taste in music, from Pop to Classical, including Rock, Folk, Jazz, Country, World Music (Celtic, Romanian), Old Timey Stringband/Bluegrass, and Latin. All these styles are in my Christian Contemporary catagory. I usually write the music first, and then put words to the music. Though I don't sing good enough yet, I though I would put my instrumentals out along with my music. Generally, I think my music/lyrics are getting better, being more skilled now than when I started.

Lyrics
More Like You (revised) O to be more like You! Perfect Redeemer, my longing and prayer Is to follow after You All My life through. Gladly, I'd suffer loss Rather than treasure this world's fleeting wealth For it's claims will not fulfil. But Jesus, You will. Refrain: I long to Love a little more like You Feel a little more like You Be real a little more like You At peace in a storm; At ease with scorn; Think a little more like You Live a little more like You Forgive a little more like You In all that I do - More like You O to be more like You! Full of compassion, you're serving and kind; It's Your tender-hearted touch, Caring so much; Helping the helpless ones, Cheering the fainting, with selfless concern, Seeking sinners that are lost, Bearing the cost (refrain) O to be more like You! While I am pleading, fill me with Your love. With Your Spirit, make me whole, Heart, mind, and soul. As an example, Lord That's meant for sharing, to give of Your life: From a kindle to a glow May Your love show (refrain) Coda: More like You. O to be more like You! O to be more like You!
