Every step I take - I walk with God
I place my life right in Your hands
Oh how precious are Your thought I can't even count
As God fills me with love so grand

It's a precious gift

Thankfulness for Your love

Every sin I've  sinned You freed my soul

Every breath that I take brings a song of praise		
You made me pure now there's no trace.

Thankfulness for Your love

Thankfulness for Your love
 
Let it overflow
Let it overflow
Let it overflow
Let it overflow
Let it overflow

About This Song

Every day is a brand new day. How we approach it can determine the events of the day. With Christ in our lives we have an advantage over the lost. However we can find ourselves forgetting the wonders that God provides everyday. In fact it is a precious gift. It is a gift of freedom and grace. As we get filled with the Spirit of God out lives will overflow. Being filled to overflowing will spill out and effect the world around us.


Everything I’ll Ever Need Song Story

The main reason I write worship songs like Everything I’ll Ever Need is to be a blessing and resource for the Christian church. As I ponder about the song Everything I’ll Ever Need here are some answers to questions that hopefully share the song’s story.

The main premise of this song is this. It is God who provides everything in our life based on need. No matter what our circumstances God provides for our every need. It is important to acknowledge that God is in control of the universe and every aspect of our lives.

There is a big difference between need and want. When we need something is is vital to our existence. We need things like food, water, air. We need clothing and shelter. We need to have fellowship with God and others. Without these thing we would perish. On the other hand want come from our desires. These wants can be based on either good or bad intentions.

The problem is this. It is easy to look around and feel left out or feeling that you don’t have enough. We can experience the feeling of lack or loss of something. Also we can see others with more or the feeling of emptiness.

What I hope to convey in the song is, there is assurance that God provides everything in life. The act of worship acknowledges that God provides everything we could ever need. The answer can be found in through understanding the gift of God’s grace and providence. The point is, as long as we dwell in God’s presence we will lack nothing in life according to His will.

Song Lyrics

In the morning I open my eyes 
And I see a brand new day
With the beauty of a new sunrise
Painted across the sky
I am so blessed, that a smile forms on my face
I realize that it is God who gives me grace  
I thank you Lord.
 
Everything I'll ever need
Comes from God the Mighty King
For He gives to me oh So lavishly 
Everything I'll ever need

In the evening I lay down my head
And I think about my day
I'm Reminded of my daily bread
And I bow my head to pray
I am alive saved through Jesus blood
As I realize that it's You who gives me breath
To praise you Lord

Everything I'll ever need
Comes from God the Mighty King
For You give to me oh So lavishly 
Everything I'll ever need

You span the universe 
And all it contains
Your love flows endlessly
According to Your grace
You span the universe 
And all it contains
Your love flows endlessly
According to Your grace
According to Your grace

Everything I'll ever need
Comes from God the Mighty King
For You give to me oh So lavishly 
Everything I'll ever need

Everything I'll ever need
Comes from God the Mighty King
For You give to me oh So lavishly 
Everything I'll ever need

What inspired the song Everything I’ll Ever Need?

The song Everything I’ll Ever Need is inspired by a combination of several bible verses.  Here are ones that stand out in regards to the song itself

Scripture References

And my God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in the glory of Christ Jesus

Philippians 4:19

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.

Psalm 23:1

The earth is the Lord’s and all its fullness.

1 Corinthians 10:26

For your Father know the things you have need of before you ask Him.

Matthew 6:8

But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.

1 Timothy 6:6-8

What message would you like people to take from the song Praise and Honor?

The one thing that I hope the song will convey is that God provides. One of God’ attributes is spoken of by his name “Jehovah Jireh”. Which literally means “the Lord will provide“. One other idea the song shows is to show appreciation for the simple things in life. Things like a sunrise or that we have breath. However, the most important things is the amazing gift of salvation. For this any many other things God preforms should put the worshipper in a state of appreciation.

On The Third Day – Song Story

The main reason I write worship songs like On The Third Day is to express through music the wonder and greatness of God. As I think about the song On The Third Day here are some thoughts that hopefully share the song’s story.

The most important event in the history of mankind is the miracle that happen nearly 2000 years ago in Jerusalem. There was a man who was also God incarnate named Jesus. He had a three year ministry that ended by the most heinous punishment ever devised by man. The method of death was the Roman practice of crucifixion on a wooded cross.

Jesus was put on the cross by the religious leaders of the day. At the time they refused to see who Jesus was. As a result of their ignorance, Jesus died on the cross then was buried in a tomb. Now for most any other human that would be the end of the story. However, Jesus was in no way ordinary. The miracle of resurrection occurred after three days in a sealed tomb.

The resurrection of Jesus is God’s gift to mankind to offer one final sin offering. Jesus became the sacrificial lamb to take away the sins of the world. You only need to believe this in faith to receive atonement and be set free from the punishment of sin. This is the good news that every Christian now has hope for heaven .

Song Lyrics

From all splendor and majesty
Jesus came from heaven to earth
He brought a gift greater than gold
worth much more than I could afford

On the third day
the Son did rise
On the third day
My hope shined bright
On the third day
My Lord is alive

Jesus hung upon Calvary's cross
Crucified to save mankind
He was reviled and spit upon
Paid full price for all of my sins

On the third day
the Son did rise
On the third day
My hope shined bright
On the third day
My Lord is alive

His disciples went to the grave
They neared the tomb where he was laid
Looking inside and seeing no one
For the risen Lord is alive

On the third day
the Son did rise
On the third day
My hope shined bright
On the third day
My Lord is alive

Why I wrote On The Third Day?

On the Third Day was written because I wanted to express in song one of the greatest events in the history of the world. The song starts out with the humility of Jesus leaving heaven. His gold was to bring a gift worth more than everything a person could imagine. The Bible speaks many time regarding the three day period between death and resurrection. As the song progresses I wanted to paint a picture of the terrible way Jesus died. The chorus of the song however speak of hope. Jesus without sin became the perfect sacrifice to take away sin. The proof came on the third day where Jesus is alive. The bridge of the song is about the witnesses to the miracle. The tomb where Jesus was place was empty. It was exactly as Jesus predicted. The hope is the song brings to remembrance of this amazing historical act and the hope every Christian has.

What inspired the song On The Third Day?

The song is inspired by a combination of several bible verses. Here are ones that stand out in regards to the song itself

In this song it is my hope that the individual that sings these words will have a fore knowledge of what it will be like in heaven. Christian devotion to God start now. Let us give praise and honor to God as Almighty Majesty.

Cornerstone – Jesus is the Rock Song Story

The main reason I write worship songs like Cornerstone Jesus is the Rock is to be a blessing and resource for the Christian church. As I ponder about the song Cornerstone Jesus is the Rock here are some answers to questions that hopefully share the song’s story.

This song is inspired by scriptures found in the Bible. When a building is constructed one of the most important elements is the cornerstone. This is the first piece that is placed down. It is important because it become the primary reference for the entire building. If the cornerstone is placed incorrectly it will affect the integrity of the the building. The cornerstone is this song refers to Jesus.

Jesus is the chief cornerstone upon which the church is built. Unfortunately, for unbelievers the cornerstone becomes a rock or offence or a stumbling block. During the time when Jesus was on earth the religious leaders eyes where blinded and were unable to see Jesus for who he was. Jesus brought salvation to the world. But for the religious leader Jesus was offensive and a stumbling block and the adamantly rejected Him. This resulted in the the most heinous earthly punishment of crucifixion.

This song is about in individuals today and their relation and belief in Jesus. For the believer there is great comfort, for the non believer it is a warning.

Song Lyrics

[VERSE 1]

True to the Word this stone   refused,
By the builders, was the Rock of Israel.
So, don’t pass by and ignore this rock
Or you will stumble trip and fall.

[CHORUS]

Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Jesus is the Rock
Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Upon this Rock I'll stand.

[VERSE 2]

Be not ashamed, never run away,
In your belief in the Rock of Israel.
So, don’t pass by and ignore this Rock
Or you will stumble, trip and fall.

[CHORUS]

Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Jesus is the Rock
Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Upon this Rock I'll stand.

[Bridge]

Build on this Rock
Be firm in your faith   ​
and You will know the Lord.

[CHORUS]

Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Jesus is the Rock
Cornerstone, Cornerstone
Upon this Rock I'll stand.

Why I wrote Cornerstone – Jesus is the Rock?

This song was inspired while reading the bible. While reading the theme of the cornerstone caught my attention. There is a visual image of this special rock called the cornerstone. It this the most important part of the building. It is the very first stone that is laid on the the foundation. Everything about this stone determine how well a the building will be. It needs to be orientated perfectly. It must be the perfect size and shape. If it of off in any way it will affect the integrity of the building. This is a perfect image of Jesus. He is the cornerstone of our faith. But, the religious leaders where blind and found offence in the ministry of Jesus. To ignore or reject this rock has it consequences.

What inspired the song Cornerstone – Jesus is the Rock?

The song Cornerstone – Jesus is the Rock is inspired by a combination of several bible verses.  Here are ones that stand out in regards to the song itself

Scripture References

See, I lay in Zion a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, firmly placed

Isaiah 28:16

The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone.

Psalm 118:22-23

“…by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands before you whole. He is ‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.’ There is no salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

Acts 4:10-12

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone.

Ephesians 2:19–20

“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious,”.

1 Peter 2:4–6

What message would you like people to take from the song Cornerstone – Jesus is the Rock?

The thing I would like to see from this song is the awareness that Jesus is the Cornerstone. He is what our faith is built on. During the time Jesus walked on earth many could not see him for who he was. As a result Jesus became offensive and they rejected him. Thing are not so different today. Jesus to the lost soul find offence in him. They find not need for the free gift of salvation. Unfortunately they are are lost. I want the message of this song to bring awareness that faith is built on the Rock.
