I am the proud father of two adult children. I have been playing the guitar for various church bands for over 25 years. All of these songs are original and reflect a preference to Christian music with a country rhythm.
Story behind the song
In a society where change is normal, inevitable, and many times desirable, how often do we find ourselves grasping for something solid – a firm foundation that remains the same in every circumstance? “I am the Lord – I change not” the words spoken to His chosen people still resonate in our hearts today, giving us hope for all of our uncertain tomorrows.
Lyrics
The Beginning and Ending of all things, Omnipotent, Life-giving Word,
Lord of creation – so mighty, Wonderful, Unchanging Lord,
You’re the Lover, and Savior of my soul, the Rock of all Ages to me
Nothing was ever before You – You’re the Master of Eternity !
So we stand in Your presence before You
And we’re lifting our hands to Your name
Jesus, Messiah, King of all kings,
Jesus – forever the Same.
You lead us beside the still waters, You give us our strength everyday
There are rivers of life in the desert, when we’re lost then You show us the Way,
Bread of Life, You provide for the hungry, Living Water, as we thirst we receive
Every need You supply when we ask You – if only in faith we believe
Giving beauty for the ashes in our life, the oil of joy when we mourn.
There is healing for all of our bruises, with garments of praise You adorn,
True release to the captives in bondage, and freedom to the pris’ners of war –
May our lives be as trees by the river, bearing fruit to Your name ever more.
