Jesus, You Are
Jon Cairns
I love fast songs that have substance, so that was my aim in writing this song. It speaks about the different aspects of Jesus, from creation of the world to dying on a cross, from his unknowableness to his intimate love for us. Works well as a song to wake a congregation :)

Passion for Your Name
Jon Cairns
I wrote this song while listening to a friend, Fusi Mokoena, preach to our church on the topic of "zeal". The first two lines of the song, along with the melody, dropped into my head and the rest of the song flowed from that point. I completed it with the help of the 12 Song Challenge community, as part of the April 2024 challenge.

In Christ and Christ Alone
Jon Cairns
A song based on Acts 4, where Peter says the words "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved." The whole song is written around salvation being found in Jesus alone. I started writing it as part of the 12 Song Challenge in 2024, where the theme was "Acts songs", i.e. a song based on a part of the book of Acts. The recording was created (mostly) live, with only the lead guitar part being recorded separately.

Nothing Can Separate
Jon Cairns
I do write slow songs, but the fast ones keep breaking through. This song is based on my favourite chapter of the Bible, Romans 8. There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, and nothing now can separate us from His love.
