Tracy Keeney, Tracy Rivest, Country and Contemporary Christian music
Hello and Welcome!! My name is Tracy Keeney (Rivest) and I'm a songwriter writing mostly Contemporary Christian and Country music and dabbling in sacred choral works as well. I'm a member of the Nashville Songwriters Association, and am registered with BMI. Since several people have emailed me asking about a CD, I thought I'd take this opportunity to explain why I don't have one. Though I did write and sing the songs on my site, these are actually just "demos". But, if you hear a hear a guy singing-- yeah, that's not me :) UPDATE: Julie Burton did the vocals on Tapestry of Life. LOVE her voice! Demos like these are what I send to the record labels. Then hopefully, we sign a publishing contract, and one of their artists record a song and put it on THEIR CD. For example, the demo here for "It's Still Your Hand" was recorded and produced in Nashville by Galen Breen. My co-writer, Steve Anderson and I then sent the demo to Lamon Records, and one of their gospel artists, Sheila Albritton recorded it, and put it on her latest CD, "Faith In Time". I'm really not interested in the performing/gigging side of music, having to promote myself, etc, so I'd rather have someone ELSE record one of my songs and put it on their CD. And actually, I did the travelling/touring thing with a band back when I was 19 and single. I'm 40 now, and married with 4 kids. My happy butt wants to stay home! Eventually, I WILL put a CD together of me singing my songs. But right now, I still have about 30 songs that have yet to be professionally demoed. Once I have a good 10-12 songs done, I'll put them on CD. A heartfelt and sincere THANK YOU to all those who've been so supportive! My sweet husband William and our incredible children, Sara, James, Mary and Emma; my mother Rosemary, my brother Joe and his wife Nicole; and dear friends, Jennifer, Michael, Tom and Judy. Most especially, to a loving Father in Heaven and His Holy Son, my Savior and Redeemer, who have given me every breath, every joy, and every inspiration. What CAN I do, but SING! Tracy

Lyrics
A MORE EXCELLENT WAY Written & performed by Tracy L. Keeney Vocal Production: Pat McAtee, Belton, MO Music Production: Galen Breen, Nashville, TN They lie to you Offering the world With empty hands They twist the truth Telling you what Happiness demands But in your heart You hear another voice Use your heart To make the better choice There's a way through the gray Of the clouds that surround you A road, that's straight and true Make a start, give your heart Someone already gave His for you So take a stand today And choose to follow A more excellent way The crowds may jeer As they search The hazy mist of night But the way is clear When you lift your eyes Up to the Light In the dark We all stumble and roam Take His hand And He'll lead you safely Home Repeat Chorus They way may seem too distant Impossible and far Forget the road behind you Begin right where you are Repeat Chorus Copyright 2004 by Tracy L. Keeney
