A song written for Trinity Sunday 2018 at St James Church, Hill. It's trying to bring a modern take on Trinitarian thought without over-complicating matters, and with language that most of our younger members could access. Inspired by Kingsland Church's song about the Holy Spirit that got all nine gists in the chorus, I tried to do the same in verse three of this song.
The call to be holy in all of life.

Based on Psalm 95, Come Let Us Sing is an invitation to praise God, the creator and sustainer of all things.
I think it's such a powerful thing to declare Jesus as king - we join with all of heaven when we do so. This song is about turning from our sin and idols, and placing the crown on Jesus' head. It works well as a response song, and fits particularly well during communion.
I'm part of a worship songwriting group, the Resound 12 Song Challenge, which encourages songwriters to write a song each month. This came out of a challenge from March of 2023, whose theme was to write a song based on one of the more unusual Psalms. Psalm 65 jumped out to me, and this was the result. It's a simple song of declaration and an invitation to worship, so it works well as an opening song in a worship set.
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.
Written at the Resound Worship Songwriting Retreat 2024. My aim with this song was to attempt to describe the might, power and majesty of God without making it about our experience or perception of Him. So often our songs define His value through what we see of Him, or how we have experienced Him. He's worthy of praise simply because He's worthy of praise.
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 :)
