The beauty of growing older is obtaining wisdom. This song is a plea to God asking for wisdom with compromise.

David Cottrell, Matt Osgood and Worship Song Recording
Written to reflect the start of a teaching series in 2018, where from Genesis 1:26-28 & 12:1-3 we saw how God wants to bless us and how we can locate ourselves in a place to receive or hinder these blessings so they overflow to bless those around us.
This song is taken from the book of Ruth, chapter 1, and might be used at services where this scripture is a focus, as a closing hymn or for weddings/celebrations of life partnerships. The song was originally written to celebrate the 40th anniversary of a couple who had used this scripture passage at their wedding.
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.
This song was written at the Resound Worship Songwriting Retreat at Wydale in 2023.

Jesus has many names, which reflects his unfathomable nature. This song is an exploration of who he is and the wonder of his name.
Sometimes we ask ourselves, "What have I done to deserve a love like this?"
Lorna Heaps, Andy Biggs
The scene in Isaiah 6, a spokesman for the LORD, silenced in the face of his holiness. Let's recreate this in our own times with the LORD. They're not supposed to be dreary or dull. We get to come into the presence of the holy of holies, the one no-one can compare or ever come close to. Ponder that!
This was written for a "Word for Word" Challenge as part of the 2024 12 Song Challenge. I am currently in negotiation with the publishers of the NIV to try and seek permission to register this song.

Continuing on from To Him, this instrumental was inspired by my reflection on Revelation 5.
