All To Thee

This is the first song that I wrote on piano!!! It has three different time signatures (5/4, 6/8, and 4/4).

I praise You in the morning

In the calmness of the day

You made me in Your image

In the likeness of Your name

Papa

I'll sing Your praise forever

All my words bow at Your feet

All glory to my Jesus

May my life a mirror be

For Your glory I sing

By Your grace I am free

For Your love calls to me

All to Thee, Lord, all to Thee

Papa

I'll sing Your praise forever

All my words bow at Your feet

All glory to my Jesus

May my life a mirror be

For Your glory I sing

By Your grace I am free

For Your love calls to me

All to Thee, Lord, all to Thee

Papa

Oh the glory of Your throne surrounds me

And all are drawn to the beauty of Your voice

Singing

Holy Holy Holy

Lord of All

All my words

All my heart

All my hopes

All my dreams

Everything

All Your love

All Your grace

All Your mercy

All Your strength

You're everything

Goodbye Sunday

I've been writing this song for almost 5 years, but never had it quite right. It's quite an odd arrangment that goes verse, pre-chorus, verse, pre-chorus, bridge, chorus, alternate chorus. Here's the newest draft:

Goodbye Sunday

First love open your eyes to see the light ahead

I'm swimming in the words you said

My regrets and your goodbye our light is gone

Now I finally see how

You held on

I held off

Now you're gone

At times I'd like to wait this out

And paint a smile when you're around

A slight of face to hold your hand

Am I a better man than that?

I put it on

And took it off

Now you're gone

My regrets are deeper than the ocean

And your love was stronger than the tide

Never mind the memories are fading

You're the one who made me feel alive

Mistakes that we made we'll never be the same

Our love is a bent melody

My heart on my sleeve and my pride on the floor

You saved me, you saved me

First love close your eyes never to see the light

Our love is a bent melody

In my mind in my heart out of sight is a start

Goodbye Sunday

chases of noon

The sun is such a wonderful symbol of truth. It's rays chase time across the afternoon sky which, in some ways, inspired the title of this adventure. I see more of life as shadows are burned away by the suns light. Even in times when all I feel is darkness, the shadow proves the sunshine. This journal of sorts is an effort to reflect that which I have been shown, and that which I hope to create.

Chases of noon will hopefully show the heart behind these

words of a chosen son.
