Being a Church Musician

Image
Being a church musician is a different thing. I come here about two hours every day to try to continue to grow and learn different things about my instrument. But on Sunday, it doesn't matter really if I can play this cool chord or play a certain group of notes 2% faster than last week. On Sunday, there are people with all kinds of things on their mind. Money, family, etc, things we don't know about. They sre coming here looking for answers, looking for God in their lives. So  we just try to help people put their focus on God and try to inspire them to do and be their best for another week. Maybe I don't get to try out all my jazz chops and licks. But if someone can be inspired to live into their life and their calling and live into their relationship with God, and if I in anyway helped that, that's what really counts. Did you notice the cross on the back wall? Keep your focus on the cross!

Dancing Girl

The music, time and place is right She's dressed right for the night. If she's feeling right tonight She will get up and move to the floor She's a dancing girl She is a dancing girl I love watching her She's a mix of quiet nobility She's a lady, a queen But when the music plays She lets it go She's a dancing girl She is the dancing girl. I wonder when the time is right I think she's looking over here I'm not the kind that just walks to a stranger's table. My friend says go with the flow Not sure where the flow is going or if it's gone. She's a dancing girl She is a dancing girl

It's Amazing

It's amazing. You can be living your life, day in and day out. You think you have it figured out, everything is fine. Then a moment in time comes along and changes everything that you thought you knew. A moment so profound it cannot be unseen. You are changed. I am changed. We are changed. It's so amazing and wonderful, there are no words and lots of words for it, all at the same time. What was important is not important anymore. What was not important is most important. Whatever it is, and whatever it will be, one thing is sure- Everything is okay and Everything will be ok. It's amazing. Absolutely amazing.

Two Beautiful, Too Beautiful Flowers

Two beautiful, too beautiful, Two beautiful. too beautiful flowers. Two beautiful. too beautiful, Two beautiful, too beautiful flowers And I wish this Sunday afternoon would last forever I always want to spend my Sunday afternoons with you. Look at them playing in the park That red train will take them Wherever they imagine that it will Walking on the bridge, or playing in the water, Both competing to be the happiest girl in the world Time goes by so fast when I'm with you It seems like forever until I can see you again Soon enough it will be Sunday again I'll be with you always in my heart Until Sunday comes around
