Welcome! I am a singer/songwriter of different styles of Christian and Country Music....Enjoy the message I bring, and may your heart be ministered to.
Hello! I'm very glad you stopped in to listen and visit. :) The message I carry is simply this...Jesus loves you and I do too. Hope you enjoy what you hear, and get a blessing from the music, as God does not give His people gifts to just set them upon the shelf, and never be used. I'm only as good as the Lord helps me to be, and I'm thankful for the blessings He has bestowed upon me. I'm NOT perfect, never claimed to be; but on the other hand, I have a message to minister in song, and I do that to the best of my ability. I fully realize there are many songs I demo here that don't fit my style/voice, but I can't run out and get a singer that fits everytime I write a song. :) What I write or cover comes from the heart. I've endured many hard trials in my life, and each one has, in one way or the other made its way into a song that others can relate to. All of my songs except for noted exceptions are free downloads. I'm not a professional by any means, nor am I interested in becoming one; and so the music is given away just as freely as the message was given to me.

Alleluia! D An angel clad in white they see, Who sits and speaks unto the three, G A D G / D “Your Lord has gone to Galilee”! Alleluia! D That night the apostles met in fear, Among them came their master dear, G A G / D And said “My peace be with you here”! Alleluia! D G A G / D D G A G / D He is Risen! Alleluia! He is Risen! Alleluia! D When Thomas first, the tidings heard, That they has seen the risen Lord, G A G / D He doubted the disciples word. Alleluia!

D No longer Thomas then denied, he saw the feet, the hands, the side: G A G / D “You are my Lord and God he cried”!, Alleluia! D How blest are they who have not seen, And yet whose faith has constant been, G A G / D For they, eternal life shall win! Alleluia! D G A G / D D G A G / D He is Risen! Alleluia! He is Risen!

Tammy, A lovely song indeed and a very beautiful arrangement. You have a very pretty singing voice. It is interesting to hear different versions of the same song, what difference with different vocalists. Cheers, Kristy

A pleasant praise song about the resurrection. I missed this one for Easter. Glad I came across it now. Hallelujah!

He IS risen, indeed! And death has lost its sting because of Jesus Christ's victory over our guilt and death! Alleluia! What a beautiful melody to go with the greatest message of all time. Your music paints the Gospel message with worthy reverence and joy. Outstanding! great work with these lyrics. (Very Catholic, LOL!) I have a new one up whenever you have the chance, "Childlike Faith"... Happy Easter, Johnny
