Solo acoustic guitar.
My intention was to use this page for original solo fingerstyle guitar pieces. There are also some Acoustic Life Project recordings now too, which are a mixed bag of guitar, mando, uke etc with several songs. Also some tracks courtesy of De Faoite Stringed Instruments on a Samhain guitar I had the pleasure of "minding" for a fortnight. I have been encouraged, or rather, pestered, to record these tunes by my best mate Glyn, so you can blame him if you don't like them, but please be gentle, because, as he keeps reminding me, he has got feelings. Spurred on by the acquisition of a Zoom H2 recorder which has freed me from the tyranny of mics, mixers, multitracking and excessive editing, I have now recorded in the simplest possible fashion twelve of my own compositions to make the CD he has been hankering for these past few years! My recorded collaborations with friends can still be found under "Keith & Co".

Lyrics
Into the darkness of this world; Into the shadows of the night; Into this loveless place You came, Lightened our burdens, eased our pain And made these hearts Your home. Into the darkness once again, Oh come, Lord Jesus, come Come with Your love To make us whole. Come with Your light To lead us on. Driving the darkness Far from our souls. O come, Lord Jesus, come. Into the longing of our souls; Into these heavy hearts of stone; Shine on us now Your piercing light, Order our lives and souls aright By grace and love unknown. Until in You our hearts unite, Oh come, Lord Jesus, come. Come with Your love...etc O Holy Child, Emmanuel; Hope of the ages, God with us, Visit again this broken place, Till all the earth declares Your praise, And Your great mercies own. Now let Your love be born in us, O come, Lord Jesus, come. Come with Your love...etc. Come in Your glory Take Your place. Jesus, the Name above all names. We long to see You face to face, O come, Lord Jesus, come. Words and Music by Maggi Dawn Copyright 1993 Kingsway's Thankyou Music
