progressive pop jazz blues country christian contemporary melody celtic orchestral bible sax musette
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.

Story behind the song
I had this Bossa Nova melody already, when I was reading the book, Marketplace Christianity. There was a part that was about coffee. The Bossa Nova seemed more at home with coffee, plus there was a play on words - New Boss/Bossa Nova.
Lyrics
New Boss Another morning cup of coffee, Lord, Another workday afternoon, Another day to show I love You, Lord, To worship You all the day through You give the coffee bean its flavor, and You know the picker's needs and wants, And the barista is Your servant, Lord, They all have made You their new boss Another day of work assignments, Lord, I see the orders piling up To meet the challenge of job expectations I need strength. You fill my cup. I need to sort and stack production, and I need to constantly re-stock I need to talk with some new buyers, Lord, I need to be like my new boss Chorus: I give You honor, ev'ryday. You're my Lord and Master on earth It gives me pleasure, yes it does. I'm Your servant here at work [Second/Alt. Chorus] I give You honor, in all ways. You're my Father since my rebirth. And I am grateful, yes, dear Lord. I'm Your servant here at work (repeat chorus) You know coal miners, welders, and steel workers You know nurses on each shift You know food servers, and good clean up workers And the one on the fork lift They put their love in ev'ry effort. Yet, They make their pride a grateful loss They honor those who are more worthy, and They owe their souls to their new boss (chorus) David Davis copyright 2010
