"Emmanuel" isn't just for Christmas. We often use this name for God when referring to Jesus being born as a man on Earth, hence why it's more commonly used in the run-up to Christmas. But God has always been with us, and will continue to be with us by His Spirit.
My wife and I wrote this song as part of the 12 Song Challenge for 2024.
A song based on Psalm 3 that tackles the subject of fear, our dependence on God, and his ability to rescue and protect us in all situations.
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.
This is a great song to sing as a congregation. A declaration of who we are in Christ and a real celebration. I imagined a parade processing down a street with banners and loud shouts of praise. Works well with just guitar and vocal too.
A song for those Christians who always feel like they're looking over their shoulders waiting for their past to catch up with them.
A song about God's faithfulness when we feel fearful.

"A Time For Everything" was written in 2024 during the Resound Worship 12 Song Challenge Month where we were encouraged to write "a song for someone" - A song which someone in my church congregation could sing with real relevance, but where it could also be sung by everyone.
At the time, we has a family whose teenage daughter was suffering from unexplained seizures and swelling on the brain. She was in the intensive care ward of the specialist hospital, with the doctors a bit baffled by the cause and the necessary treatments. Her parents testified about how they were hanging on to faith through the circumstances, despite there not being a clear end in sight.
This song was written for them to sing. Thankfully she's on the mend now and back at school, after great medical care and a bit of a miraculous recovery.
It's my hope that this is a song you can sing, either because you're going through troubled times, or because you're standing alongside someone who is.
