Sometime the pressures of life can bring you down. We need to look to God, He is our strength!

Artist picture
Ive written hundreds of songs over the past 40 years. I love Jesus, the word of God, people and music. I play guitar, bass and sing. Thank you for listening!
My music is about the new life found in Jesus Christ. He is our access to the Father and is worthy of all praise and glory. He has taken our sins away by the selfless sacrifice of His death upon the cross. He is deserving of songs and worship. The sound of my music is influenced by the delta blues and artists that have followed through the 60s and 70s who have taken this music and written folk, Americana, and Rock n Roll. Thank you for listening to my songs, and also the collaboration projects, thank you to all who contributed to these songs..

Lyrics
The Work Load The work load just seems to get heavy They pile it on just seems so steady How much more do they want me to do Got to turn and look to the one that is true They bring it on just one more brick They lay it on they lay it on thick Oh my soul why are you in despair Oh my soul hope in God He is there Just got to look to a brighter day When the Lord will take this burden away All this pain will be gone without a trace And we will see Him we’ll see Him face to face Oh my soul why are you in despair Oh my soul hope in God He is there Oh my soul why are you in despair Oh my soul hope in God he is there The joy of the Lord He is your strength He will help you help you to run this race Oh my soul why are you in despair Oh my soul hope in God he is there The joy of the Lord He is your strength He will help you help you to run this race Written and performed by John Matteson Featuring Rick Smerage on keys
