AUDIENCE OF ONE
(brand new song demo)
This song just came to me, totally out of the blue .....as I was drying myself after a bath recently!!
I scribbled down the line ‘audience of one’ knowing it was a seed.
Ultimately I write songs as an expression, an outlet - a communication of my heart & feelings about things in or around me.
As a songwriter, I want to draw people into the story I’m telling- so they can resonate with the message it’s conveying, for them to be touched in some way, & for it to make a difference for that short time whilst they’re listening. ....
This song sums up my heart that even if a song blesses just one person, then it has done it’s job, & I’m happy!
THIS ORDINARY BOY
THIS ORDINARY BOY
It is now two years since I attended the funeral of a local homeless man who I had befriended. The church was packed with so many people! That's when the seed for this song came - it struck me in that moment, that his life had started out just as any other ordinary boy! Our lives are steered by the choices we make....let’s learn to choose wisely.
RIP Joby Boy. X
YOU'VE BEEN THERE
(Live in Lockdown) Vol 1
This song was written after a season where I had been through many changes, Sometimes we disappoint ourselves through making unwise choices, which then have permanent consequences! Even my faith was shaken and tested during this time, but as I looked back, I could see that God was always there! He remains faithful!
AUDIENCE OF ONE
30/1/2021
Oh the wind blows cold, on a dusky morning
These deserted sands see a new day dawning
At this shore
Leaves me wanting more
When the tide is high, & the wind it lashes
And I taste the air, as the sea it crashes
To the shore
Leaves me wanting more
Have your faded dreams left your soul so empty
Lift your eyes to see there is hope a-plenty
At this shore
To leave you wanting more
Chorus:
Oh I live to care
To capture the essence
As if you were there with me
Not for my eyes alone,
This vision
This passion for the life that I know
Is my song
For an audience of one.
When the sun goes down that same roaring ocean
Now gives peace and rest in it’s gentle motion
At this shore
Leaves me wanting more
Oh these days are hard, so now more than ever
We need songs of hope, bringing us together
To this shore
To leave us wanting more…
COME IN YOUR GLORY
COME IN YOUR GLORY
A spontaneous song that I sang out at a Christian camp where I was leading worship at, many years ago, but only recently has been made available to purchase on my album 'Eyes on You'. This has been having an impact on Youtube, with many views growing daily!
The Presence of God was so tangible at this worship meeting, & you can sense it still on this track, all these years later!
JOBY DREAM ON - SINGLE
I heard the tragic news of the death of Joby, (a homeless man I had befriended) on Christmas Day, huddled, & all alone, in a shop doorway! A few days later, I sat down & wrote this song - it was an outpouring of sadness! I am grateful to be able to express my emotions through a song!
So blessed to have had my producer friend Dave Draper to help me bring this song to life.
MIRACLE WORKING GOD
(from the album 'Always Near")
I remember my Mum ringing me back in '91, to tell me of a friend's accident in a gas explosion at his work. I wrote this song as a prayer for him - amazingly he came through unscarred! May it help you to pray for a miracle if you need one!
