I am including this song to give you an idea of what happens when father and daughter get together for some fun at the piano. The prominent, and much better voice, is my daughter Holly's.

Welcome, and thank you for coming. My hope and prayer is that God will bless you as you listen to the music that I have recorded and want to share with you. Som
My first encounter with the keyboard was back in 1954, and thanks to the support of my loving parents (who funded my piano lessons for many years, and who somehow managed to weather the "storms" that blew in while I was practicing,) the expertise of my two piano instructors, Helen Fackiner (classical) and Richard Powell (jazz), the encouragement of friends, relatives, and fellow musicians, I have come a long way. Most of all, I am thankful to God for His lovingkindness and mercy, which is new every morning! The tunes you will find here consist of a mixture of traditional Christian hymns and original songs which I composed (with much help from above.) I recorded this collection of songs in order to glorify God and to edify the listener. I currently live in Southern California, with my loving wife Anne and two wonderful children, Holly Nicole and Paul Richard. My eternal habitation will be heaven, since by the grace of God, I was born again on August 16, 1968. I have strayed from the Way from time to time, but He has always been faithful to His promise to never leave nor forsake me. Without His grace, I would be doomed! But because of His grace to me, I am looking forward to a glorious eternal future, and am enjoying the abundant life that Jesus promised here and now. By the grace of God, He lives in me. Jesus did everything on the cross necessary to give me a right relationship to God and to Himself, and I can do nothing to make myself more loved by God than I am right now. My goal? To get to know Jesus Christ better and better every day. I am looking forward with great anticipation to the rapture of the Church, which I am hoping will be very, very, very soon! Ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart, and He will! Then you too will know for a fact where you will spend eternity! Praying a prayer similar to this one, meant from the heart, is all you need to do to be born again, to pass from death into life, and to change your citizenship from the kingdom of darkness to a citizenship in the Kingdom of Light: "God, I realize I need a Savior. I confess that I have sinned and I know that my sin will keep me out of heaven. I realize there is not one single thing I can do to earn my way into Your heaven. Right now I am placing all, 100 percent of my trust, in Christ’s death on the cross and resurrection from the dead as payment for my sin. I now accept you as my Lord and Savior, and I commit my life to you. Thank you for forgiving me and giving me your Holy Spirit." If you prayed this prayer, record today's date and rest in the assurance of spending eternity with God. Please e-mail me, also, if you have prayed this prayer, so that I can rejoice along with the angels of heaven that your name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life!

Story behind the song
I am so thankful that by the grace of God, I have been washed in the blood of Jesus Christ, for if it weren't for the holy blood Jesus Christ shed on the cross, I would still be unforgiven of all my sins! ("...and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." -from Hebrews 9:22) "You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him! For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Not only is this so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation." -Romans 5:6-11 Are you washed in the Blood? If not, please come to Jesus! Trust in the payment he made for your sins when he died on Calvary. The fact that he rose from the grave on the third day, as he promised he would, is proof that God the Father accepted Jesus' payment for all your sins and mine, and it is the only payment he will ever accept. I implore you, come to Jesus right now, just as you are, for "How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation!" (Hebrews 2:3)
Lyrics
Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Refrain Are you washed in the blood, In the soul cleansing blood of the Lamb? Are your garments spotless? Are they white as snow? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Are you walking daily by the Savior’s side? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Do you rest each moment in the Crucified? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Refrain When the Bridegroom cometh will your robes be white? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright, And be washed in the blood of the Lamb? Refrain Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin, And be washed in the blood of the Lamb; There’s a fountain flowing for the soul unclean, O be washed in the blood of the Lamb! Refrain
