"Simple song of praise" †

Here's a song I wrote today. Please comment and let me know what you think!

"A SIMPLE SONG OF PRAISE"

(verse 1)
Ancient of days, we sing a simple song of praise
for you, for you
........yeah yeah yeah..........
Reign in our hearts, we're giving everything we are
to you, to you

(chorus)
A simple song of praise, is all I have to bring,
Simple are my words, compared to you my King,
I bow before your thrown, to glorify your name,
Hear me when I sing, a simple song of praise

(verse 2)
You opened up my eyes, and now I have eternal life
in you, in you
........yeah yeah yeah.......
You are the Lord, the only one this song is for
is you, is you

"Becca's Song" †

Here's another song I wrote recently.



BECCA'S SONG:

(verse 1)
The other night you were feeling broken,
I saw it in the words you spoke and,
Though I didn't know what to say,
I dropped to the ground, on my knees and prayed

(chorus)
I'll lift you up with holy hands, before the powerful "I AM"
I'll bring you to God's mercy seat, where his love and grace are free,
And though, I don't know, all you go through,
I will always pray for you

(verse 2)
God is bigger than all your problems,
His grace, an ocean with no bottom,
He promised me he'd hear my plea,
And the promises he makes, he will always keep

"Beautiful People"

Here's a song I wrote yesterday. The guitar music for it is really fun and I'm really happy with how it turned out!

Proverbs 31:30 -"Beauty is fleeting and charm is deceitful, but a woman who fears the Lord is greatly to be praised"



"Beautiful People"

(Verse 1)
Why are you,
lookin on the outside
I tell you,
"beauty" is the world's lie
All you need,
is a girl that's seekin God's heart
But right now,
are you doin your part... right....

(Chorus)
But have you heard, that in God's word,
it says that beauty is fleeting, and charm is deceitful,
so don't get so flattered... by beautiful people

(Verse 2)
Why are you,
carin what that guy says
I tell you,
just to wait for God's best
All you need,
is to live your life for Jesus
Brothers in Christ, is how you should see us... now...

(Bridge)
Guys we need to think about just what were lookin for,
and girls you need to just make sure that you love the Lord!

Extremish weekend eh? †


WOW! Fun weekend! Friday night was "Burger King Prom" with friends. (Basically just getting all dressed up and going to BK with a bunch of friends for the heck of it.)


When we got back to my friend's house from BK, one of my friends, Josh, had just arrived and was standing behind his vehicle, about to open the trunk. I ran up behind and went to hug him super hard from behind. BUT it was dark out, and I didn't see the vehicle right there. I ended up punching it super hard while trying to throw my arms around Josh. It hurt a little, but I didn't think anything of it until he opened the trunk and the light revealed that there was a big gash in my knuckle down to the bone. I was surprised for sure, because I didn't realize I had hit it that hard.
We went inside and worked for a while cleaning it out and trying to get it to stop bleeding. (after taking many photos OF COURSE.)

Saturday night was a party at BRANDYMANDY's house.... fun stuff! And then my friend Ryer spent the night at my place and we slept out under the stars and roasted 'mallows and crap over the fire!
Sunday morning I went to Wayne Aarum's church with Ryer and then went straight to an outreach almost 2 hrs away with the youthgroup all afternoon. I played guitar for the outreach with my finger messed up still... it was.... interesting. haha But God is good and everything went great!I went bowling my churches youthgroup last night and had to bowl left handed because of my finger. I got a total of 4 strikes between 2 games though!
