Artist picture
Solo Artist - Singer / Songwriter - Contemporary Christian
I am a musician (singer / songwriter) that has had many influences. As a young man I listened and was influenced by Journey, Kansas, Styx, Boston, Led Zepplin, Billy Joel, Elton John, The Eagles, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, and many others. As I grew older and became more involved with my church, I gravitated toward contemporary Christian artists such as Wayne Watson, Steven Curtis Chapman, Michael W. Smith, Michael English, Ray Boltz, Casting Crowns, Philips Craig & Dean, and others. Recently I have returned to my first love - Contemporary Christian Music. It is my prayer that God will open doors within this ministry and hopefully, in the future, I will be able to record and share some of the great music that God has given me. In January of 2007 I had the priviledge of Recording my first EP of original songs with The Tyler Music Group in Nashville Tnn. This has been a wonderful experience to record and work with some of the best musicians in the world. I was also fortunate and blessed to have been associated with my producer, William Smith, that believed in my songs and took a chance on a new unsigned artist. I am married to my beautiful wife, and we live in Anniston, AL. I have a daughter, Bethany that is the joy of my life. Bethany is a Graduate of Jacksonville State University, with a major in Elementary Education - She has recently taken a job at Alexandria Elementary School as a Third Grade Teacher - Bethany loves, children and will be a great teacher.

Story behind the song
I wrote this song after my daughter received her first teaching job as a 3rd Grade Elementary School teacher. I began to think about the impact that our teachers can have on the students in their class, just by letting the students see Jesus in their life.
Lyrics
For the Least of These Music and Lyrics by Rickey Wright 1st Verse Little eyes that seek Their tender hearts to teach A chance to lead the way Beyond their ABC’s Before your work is through Let them see Jesus in you And point the way of the cross That leads home Chorus To Shape the life of a child Though your time may be brief And lead them in a life to seek Teach them how to live And show them how to give What a chance you have to teach The least of these 2nd Verse Lesson plans to write And promises to keep You wonder if it’s right The things you want to teach But each day they're with you Let them see Jesus in you To change a precious life And lead them home Chorus To Shape the life of a child Though your time may be brief And lead them in a life to seek Teach them how to live And show them how to give What a chance you have to teach The least of these Pre-Chorus - Repeat Before your life is through Let them see Jesus in you And point the way of the cross That leads home Chorus To Shape the life of a child Though your time may be brief And lead them in this life to seek Oh, Teach them how to live And show them how to give What a chance you have to teach The least of these 3rd Verse Before your work is through Let them see Jesus in you Though your time with them is so brief Teach them how to live And show them how to give What a chance you have to teach The least of these
