The first song I ever wrote
Artist picture
Christ centered songs written by Dan Simmons...the best Gospel and inspirational A.I. music on the internet!
"firesong" is the songwriting ministry of Dan Simmons Thanks for stopping by. It's my desire to faithfully share that which has been given to me. This website will be a sampling of recordings that I, along with family and friends, have done over past 45 years. There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site. Special thanks go to my partners in music, my daughter Amber, son Ian and the guys of Single Heart (Gene, Bob, Chris, Marty and Tata) who joined me to sing praises to the Lord down through the years. I also wish to thank those co-writers and artists that have joined with me in developing new music the passed few years to share on this website. I'm now featuring AI (Artificial Intelligence) groups that I've developed to sing some of the songs. I hope it's evident to everyone... that though the melodies and harmonies, styles and singers may change... JESUS has always been and will always be...the Song! ...this music is one simple expression of a very thankful heart. (Dan is a retired firefighter and ordained minister)

Story behind the song
This is the first song I ever wrote...I wrote it for the dedication of our baby daughter Amber...M'Len and I sang at the service when we dedicated her to the Lord at a tiny church (Ebenezer United Methodist Church) just after the new year in 1978.
Lyrics
Lord, give us grace To lead this child wisely Father, give us love More like Your own Jesus, give us faith To be what we ought to Lord, keep her safe In You till she's grown We thank You, Lord For this child You have given We praise You, Lord For this gift we now own Hasten the day When she'll know your sweet Spirit Lord, keep her near To You when she's grown For we have been given This treasure from heaven And we have been trusted With life from your throne Please, give us grace To lead this child wisely Oh Father, give us love More like your own Jesus, give us faith To be what we ought to And Lord, keep her safe In You when she's grown Oh Lord, keep her safe In You when she's grown Please Lord keep her safe...in You... When she's grown October 2, 2025
