"He's My Lord"

This is a song I wrote while working as a receptionist at my church. Men have cried when I sang it to them.

John 14:6


He's My Lord


He's the light in the darkness, He's my Lord.
He's the strength in my weakness, He's my Lord.
He's the Way, the Truth, the Life, the Living Word.
Jesus Christ, the son of God, He's my Lord.

He's the love in my heart, He's my Lord.
He's the song in my spirit, He's my Lord.
He is everything my heart was seeking for.
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, He's my Lord.

He's the joy on the mountain, He's my Lord.
He's the peace in the valley, He's my Lord.
He's the Way, the Truth, the Life, the Living Word.
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, He's my Lord.

He's my hope for the future, He's my Lord.
He's my Blessed Redeemer, He's my Lord.
He's the King of Glory coming for His Bride.
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, He's my Lord.

"Like A Rose"

A Christmas Southern Gospel type song ~

Like A Rose

He was born long ago, in a manger low,
Holy child, Prince of Peace, Son of God.
Wise men bearing gifts, knelt and worshipped Him,
Offering gold, frankincense and myrrh.
Like a rose of Sharon my Jesus lives.
Ever pure, fair and lovely is He.
He's the True Living Word, the Son of God,
Full of grace, tender mercy and love.

Shepherds watching their flocks on a starry night,
Saw a glorious light fill the sky.
Then a Heavenly Host from on high appeared,
Saying "Fear not, I bring good news."
Like a rose of Sharon my Jesus lives.
Ever pure, fair and lovely is He.
He's the True Living Word, the Son of God,
Full of grace, tender mercy and love.

Unto you, now is born, in Bethlehem,
Jesus, Savior, Christ the Lord.
Then the shepherds followed the shining star,
To the place where the infant lay.
Like a rose of Sharon my Jesus lives.
Ever pure, fair and lovely is He.
He's the True Living Word, the Son of God,
Full of grace, tender mercy and love.

God so loved the world that He gave His son,
As a light in the darkness to shine.
For the gift of God is eternal life,
Through Jesus Christ His Son.
Like a rose of Sharon my Jesus lives.
Ever pure, fair and lovely is He.
He's the True Living Word, the Son of God,
Full of grace, tender mercy and love.

On this our wedding day, Lord, join us together,
To live in harmony forever and ever.

In sickness and in health through all our tomorrows.

From Day to Day

I wrote this song when I worked at Wal-Mart as a cashier. I was not scanning fast enough. The manager told me I was "losing money." I always took time to bag things carefully too. So I wrote this song, and when I sang it to myself, I scanned really fast!

From Day to Day

I can do all things through my God who strengthens me,
For His strength is made perfect in my weakness.
I will call unto God for my help from day to day,
For He hears my cries and meets my every need.

He is the great I AM, Jehovah God, El Shaddiah.
Nothing is impossible for Him.
His is the name above all names, in heaven and on earth.
There is power in the mighty name of God.

Jesus gives me love, joy and peace from day to day.
I will praise God and give Him thanks in everything.
The Holy Spirit of my God leads me day by day,
As He brings to my remembrance things of God.

He is the great I AM, Jehovah God, El Shaddiah.
Nothing is impossible for Him.
His is the name above all names, in heaven and on earth.
There is power in the mighty name of God.

About This Website

Update: A dream come true ~ I am now an Author, Composer and Publisher member of ASCAP.

This website is for the music I have written. My music includes a variety, such as songs, scripture music, worship songs, instrumentals, Southern Gospel, and hymns. One of my dreams is to have something recorded. If you or your church would like to use any of my music or to record a song, please contact me. I really do want to join a composer's association. It takes some time to get music on here. I have to attempt to play all the chords perfectly, put the music on a CD, change to mp3, etc. I also have lots of music started that I need to complete. Thank you for listening to my music.

To God Be the Glory!

I believe children would enjoy singing it.

New Songs

He has put new songs in my heart,
New songs in my heart
Songs of hope in the Lord our God,
Flowing from my heart
Flowing like rivers of water,
From the fountain of life,
Songs of joy and gladness,
New songs in my heart.

He has put gladness in my heart,
Gladness in my heart
Songs of joy in the Lord our God,
Flowing from my heart
Flowing like rivers of water,
From the fountain of life,
Songs of joy and gladness,
New songs in my heart.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul, O my soul?
And why art thou disquieted within me?
Hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise Him,
Who is the health of my countenance and my God,
and my God.
O send out Thy light and Thy truth, and Thy truth.
Then will I go to the altar of God, unto God
my exceeding joy.

Come unto me ye who are weary, and I will give thee rest.

"Peace in the Midst of the Storm"

Peace in the Midst of the Storm

Hide me in Thy secret place,
Under the shadow of Thy wings,
For I find my rest in Thee,
Peace in the midst of the storm.
Hold me ever close to Thee,
Precious lamb of Calvary.
Near to Thee will always be
Peace in the midst of the storm.

Thou hast been my refuge, Lord.
I run to Thee for quiet peace,
For Thou art my hiding place,
Peace in the midst of the storm.
Ever steadfast, ever sure,
Jesus is Thy love for me.
In Thy presence, Lord, I find
Peace in the midst of the storm.

Lord I cast my cares on Thee,
For Thou, Oh Lord dost care for me.
Underneath thy wings I find,
Peace in the midst of the storm.
Lord, I place my trust in Thee,
Jesus, Lord and God to me.
In Thy name will always be
Peace in the midst of the storm.
