Everybody (Who Of Us Has Never Been In Need)

Chris Taylor

Written for the ‘Refugee’ month challenge for the Resound Worship 12 Song Challenge, June 2023. The wonderful Sue Crossman from Hopestream Worship provided vocals. This song reminds us that we have all been people in need, and if we follow Jesus’ example we will treat those we see in need as he did. Note: The chords and sheet music are in the original key of B minor, but the recording with Sue is in G# minor.

Your Heart Is For Me

Chris Taylor

I wanted to write a song which recognised the busyness of life, and the doubt and uncertainty many people experience. This was inspired by Jesus’ words from Matthew 10. Keiko Ying and Dave Forrey from the Resound Worship "12 Song Challenge" gave a lot of help with lyrics.

Everyone (We Are A Family)

Chris Taylor

Written for the Resound Worship 12 Song Challenge in January 2024, this is a song which aims to make everyone feel welcome and part of a family of faith, as well as declare why we have gathered. The chords in the chord chart have been simplified, the recording has a few “crunchy” chords in based around a descending bassline.
