Exciting News

Dear readers,

I am planning on making an album this summer. I hope to craft new and old originals on this album. I don't know how long or what songs will be on it, however, I can't wait to share this album with you. I have been contemplating this idea since the start of this year.

I do apologize for the lack of posting. My life has been crazy busy for the last year. I hope to post a lot more here optimistically. I started a YouTube channel about a year and a half ago. Feel free by visiting here

God bless you,
Sarah

I Need You

Hi everyone! It has been one crazy year for me. I need to up my song writing/recording game! I can't believe the last song I wrote was last Fall (sorry everyone). I am so excited to share with you today a new song I wrote this past week. It has been a long process of determining how I need to put my words, making sure I am communicating clearly, pouring out my heart (and tears), and having fun.

This song is based off of what I am currently having trouble with, and that is trusting God and not to be worried about anything but to learn I need Him! I hope you really enjoy this one. Here is the Recording

Verse 1:

What can you do with a broken heart?

How can I mend the pieces?

I've learned one thing through my whole life, I need You.

Verse 2:

I've traveled far, seen the world.

But its not enough.

I drag myself down with every anxious thought, I need You.

Chorus:

Its hard to find my way

I need to put my trust in You

Life is so sweet with You at my side

I always need You.

Verse 3:

Look at this world, what people do?!

How can I turn their faces?

I see the light piercing the darkness, I need You.

Verse 4:

So this is it. The last moment.

How can I thank You?

The clouds depart, the light descends

And I cry, I need You!

For Us a Child is Born

Here is a Christmas song that I wrote in March of this year. I did a post of this same song (click here), however, I did not like the lyrics for the verses. So I went back to the songwriting board this week and wrote these lyrics instead. Enjoy!

             There will be no shadow of anguish                       

Those that walk in the dark will see light

Chorus:

For us a child is born

Emmanuel the light has come

For us a child is born

God’s Son comes to save this world from sin

        To us a son is given, the prince of peace              

Whoever believes in Him will life

                He shall bruise the serpent’s head                     

Death will have no victory over Him

Refrain:

He will save His people

God’s kingdom has come there will be no end

My Soul Waits for You

This song I wrote October 1st, the first time in a while since I have written a song. I don't quite remember how I came to Psalm 130, which is what I based the song off of. Enjoy! Be sure to check out the recording of songs I have written!

Oh Lord my God, I call out for thy aid

The voice of healing and treasured love

Oh Lord my God, I need Thy strength 

Courage for tomorrow and dependence on you
 

Chorus:

Father, answer my distress

May your ears hear my plea

Even in the I hear my plea

My soul waits for you

Oh Lord my God, I hope in you

For you are the shelter of unshakable love

Oh Lord my God, with you there is forgiveness 

So that The Lord will be feared among the world

Oh Lord my God, whose presence is too glorious 

With arms of peace and lips of redemption 

Oh Lord my God, your comfort is fulfilling 

May I glorify you, all of my days

Recordings Released!

Links to the recordings are on the right as well as in the page titled "recordings". From now on look forward to hearing the sounds and not only reading the lyrics ;) God to be the glory!

The Lord is My Shepherd (revised)

I apologize for the lack of posting, because of business and traveling these few weeks. I wrote this back in February some of you may have remembered this song. I felt like God was telling me to create this piece. These past weeks/months I felt like I need to rewrite some of my songs. I thought of adding a chorus but I didn't put in one because of how I wanted this song to sound. Enjoy!

The Lord is my Shepherd

He gives me peace

Through it I rest and renew my strength

Directs me to the right path

Bringing glory to His name

The Lord is my Shepherd

As I walk through the dark

I do not fear because He's close by

His rod and staff protect and comfort me

The blessings overflow

The Lord is my Shepherd

I have all I need

His goodness and love all of my days

I know I will live forever

In the house of The Lord 

In Heaven

Since it has been a long time I thought I would give you a rough draft of my latest song! I recently read through Zephaniah, and one of its verses {3:14-20} struck me. As soon as I read it I knew it had to be a song :)

Verses:

Sing aloud my children, shout praise

Never will you evil

God has punished those who harm you

He gathers all who stumble and are lost

Give praise and honor to them

For they will be known throughout

Chorus:

Fear not, do not lose your strength 

Your God is in your midst

He who saves and has delight in you

God exults you with loud singing

Bridge:

Have joy with all your heart

The Lord has taken away your punishment

He has taken away those who hate you
