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.

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 :)
Written as part of 2024's 12 Song Challenge, where the theme was "commitment songs". The song is based on John 15, where Jesus talks about us being branches on the vine.

An honest and vulnerable song about our need for the Holy Spirit in our lives. Written by Keiko Ying and Matt Weeks.
Featuring Reuben Harsant on drums and Gemma Scharnowski on backing vocals.
A celebration of the awesome power of God to overcome all of our brokenness, and an invitation to bask in God's permanent, unshakeable love for us.
Written for my wife at Wydale, July 2024

Based on words someone said when explaining Isaiah 61. There is nothing that God considers garbage in our life or throws away. He fulfills His plans with us, makes beautiful things out of brokenness. A song to express hope in difficult situations and to praise God no matter what.

I was singing this hymn devotionally one day when I simply carried on into a chorus because I felt a need to follow up a devotional verse with a chorus that committed me to practical application. I went with it, and this is what I came up with. I subsequently used it at church the following Sunday and it went down very well. Now I just need Chris Tomlin to cover it, and I can retire. In the meantime, you could use it!

Written as part of the 2024 Resound Worship 12 Song Challenge - an upbeat (Funky!) song to celebrate the fullness of life in Christ. Whilst it focuses on joy, the other listed fruits of the spirit are in there too. What better way to remember them all than to have them in a song!
This one was written on a baritone ukulele and features Rachel Wilhelm on backing vocals and George Cook on drums.
