He Died And He Rose And He Reigns

Terry the Tin Whistle makes an appearance...

ISAIAH 53 v 5

“He was pierced for our transgressions,

He was crushed for our iniquities;

the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him,

and by His wounds we are healed.”

And thanks to Emily Hawksley who helped me with the chord structure in the verses. Nice one sis!

Remember Us

Another old track

No explicit Christian content. Although influenced by observing breakdown in a Christian marriage.

Hence: “remember us complete” and “teach us how to love”

Written in first year, Recorded in final year, Remastered last year.

To Know You

This is a song I've written (wrote?) recently, inspired by a talk on how studying and reflecting on truth about God can move us.

Then it hit me and I started feeling a bit emotional that even before I knew zip about God, he knew me so well, and how he died for me before I was even ‘a twinkle’ in anyone’s eye. I was a twinkle in God’s eye. And that makes me want to know him even more!

Lyrics:
I was known to you
In the secret place
In my mother’s womb
I was held in your gaze

To know you is to love you

Faithful and Strong
Loving and True
Jesus my goal is to know you

Faithful and Strong
Loving and True
Jesus my heart is to know you God

Is to know you God

I was held by you
On the day of pain
When you hung on the cross
There you bore all my shame

To know you is to Love you

(chorus)

Hallelujah, Thankyou Jesus

I believe

Garageband demo of a new song-got a bit carried away with adding acoustic guitars!

I had been reading a famous book about the “historical figure of Jesus”-a historian’s point of view about what we can and can’t be certain about regarding the person of Jesus. I just wanted to lay my cards on the table about who Jesus was and is, and sing out nice and loud that he was real man who walked and talked, could be touched, seen, and heard, who could bleed, and who died for real, and rose again for real.

Before the earth’s foundation were laid,
You were the Son of God
Through you all creation has been made
You are the Living Word.
In You all things now hold together,
Sustainer of all life.
You are the heir of all things Jesus,
The first-born from the dead

I believe in One Lord Jesus Christ
I believe He walked the earth and died
To rise again, the promise of new life
Now He is high and lifted up

Eternal Word of God made flesh,
The Father’s love revealed.
You made Your dwelling here with us,
Our God Immanuel.
Emptied Yourself of ev’ry form of kingly majesty,
Humility and love perfected,
Our God the Servant King.

Then as a lamb led to the slaughter,
You bore our punishment.
Without a cry of protestation,
This cruel injustice stood.
Oppressed, afflicted, bore our sorrows,
Our sickness and our grief,
All sin and judgment there exhausted,
Humanity redeemed.

Bridge:
All glory, all honour,
Majesty and praise,
Be unto the Lamb who was slain.
Let all earth, and heaven,
Magnify His name,
For our Lord Jesus lives again.

Your love is higher, wider, deeper.

I have been blown away again recently by God's love and grace.

This is the result of my praise (very rough).

YOUR LOVE IS HIGHER, WIDER, DEEPER

(V1)
A love that shows no bounds,
Nothing we do can make you love us less
A grace, free, completely free
We cannot pay, we cannot do

(Pre-Chorus)
Anything but give our lives as a living sacrifice
Anything but bring to you, all that we are

(Chorus)
You love is
Higher than the stars above, it conquers all things
Wider than the universe, it hems us within
Deeper than the deepest sea, our fears are relieved
Your love is, your love is, more than all we need

(V2)
Your blood, it knew no bounds,
Giving It all, you said, “your will be done”
We stand free, restored, redeemed
We cannot pay, we cannot do

(Bridge)
O praise him, he is our king
O praise him, was crucified
But now the curtain has been torn, we are set free
He paid the sacrifice on calvary
But now he’s risen, exalted, seated on high
That we might stand before the king and sing

Jesus You Are Everything To Me

From The Worship Album "Songs From The Journey"

A few months ago in the sleepy town of Sleaford 200 past, present and future Worship Academy (go to http://www.worship-academy.com/1.html for more details) students joined together for a big reunion celebrating the journey they had all gone on thus far. As part of that celebration a grass routes Live worship album was recorded featuring some very talented up and coming worship leaders. Backed by an amazing band this recording is being very well received through out the UK and beyond. All the money raised from this recording is being put stright back in to The Worship Academy world vision and supporting students in Romania to go through the program. To buy a copy go to www.bridgemusicstore.com.

I’ve had the amazing privilege to be apart of this vision and serve on the leadership team having input in to Academies all over the world. Go to the above web site and see just what God is doing among the nations of the world through Worship. Who knows maybe we could be welcoming you onto the next Worship Academy UK. They honoured me by allowing one of my songs to be featured on this album which is the one I’ve hopefully up loaded successfully. Be blessed Danny

Show Me Your Ways

Written by Charis George and Hannah Dickinson

Based on Psalm 25v4-5 - “Show me Your ways O Lord, and teach me Your paths; guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are God my Saviour, my hope is in you all day long”.
and John 6v67-69, ” “You do not want to leave too do you?” Jesus asked the twelve. Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God”. “

Written by both of us one evening - roughly recorded in Charis’ garden - hence birdsong, trains and delightful water feature!

“Hope of the world”/ Becky Green

Full length song

Hi ladies and gents. A Creative Arts Showcase - genius idea. Thanks for letting me being involved. Just wanted to share a track from my wife Becky’s album “All About Everything”. We’re both passionate about God and music… Don’t know how the compressed mp3 will turn out but hopefully you’ll get a taste of her sound. Being thinking about this quote recently:

“Each generation of the church in each setting has the responsibility of communicating the gospel in understandable terms, considering the language and thought-forms of that setting”
Francis Schaeffer
