This is a song that I wrote in January 2010. I'm embarking on a "write a song a month" campaign. I'm playing all the instruments and recorded this in my meager home studio. The vocals are done by Steve Carpenter.
I'm actually involved in a couple of different bands. One is a teaching band fronted by 2 Vet School professors from Oklahoma State University. Since they are both pathologists, the band was dubbed AC/VP -- American College of Veterinary Pathologists. These guys have been taking rock songs and redoing the lyrics to fit the vet school curriculum. They've got a knack for writing some great lyrics, and we have a live concert every year for the students. Everyone has a great time, and people actually learn =-) The other band I'm involved with is the worship band at Sunnybrook Christian Church. I play acoustic and love it. If you made me choose to only do 1 thing, it would be this.

Story behind the song
In January 2010, I decided to try to write a song/month for the year and produce a CD at the end of the year. This is the first song finished. The lyrics are done. I'm just waiting on my vocalist to hit the studio
Lyrics
Lyrics start after intro guitar solo Here's My Life words and music by Roger Cowan and Hank Reeves Verse 1 I come today to thank You, Lord For what You've done for me Through Your son You gave me life And set this captive free Chorus So here's my life, I lay it before Your throne I will never be the same Let me walk, Lord, with You alone Singing praises to Your name Verse 2 Whatever things were gain to me I now count as loss For the sake of the risen Christ Who died upon that cross Chorus Bridge I sing to You, to the one who knows me I sing to You, to the one who holds me I sing to You to the one who saves me I sing to You, to the one who loves me Chorus x 2
