Take a Listen
Boo&BugsMom wrote: This last Sunday I had the pleasure of using a song for our church serice that I wrote. I collaborated with the band and out came a song that everyone seemd to enjoy. Out of that, I was approached about taking a trip about an hour away to a really sweet studio that I can use for FREE (don't come across that too often, and it's a professional studio) to record the song, and possibly a few others that I have been writing in recent months. I am hoping to write enough songs to produce a whole CD, if possible. Below is a link to a song I want to share. It is not the one I used this Sunday, but one that I wrote yesterday while I had some free time. It is religious in nature, as I am an artist who writes songs to glorify God and for our church. I had to use my digital camera, so the words at times are a little hard to understand, so I also posted the lyrics below. Please take a listen. Even if you are not a "religious" person, I would hope you'd be able to at least appreciate the chords and music in general. You can click on the link to photobucket below. You need to turn the volume up in order to hear my voice, as well, since the piano is a bit loud. If the first link doesn't work try clicking on the photo.

Beautiful
I: My knees start to shake
At the thought of everything that you gave
The blood washed away with the rain, like my sins
C: His death made beautiful right before our eyes
The perfect picture of his sacrifice
Forgiven, to bloom again
To shine in you, I will
II: To be a star looking down on your cross
To see the sweat upon your brow
For your gift that you gave to me, I weep
III: The pain and misery you felt that day
With the weight of the world on your skin
Whips, thorns, and nails you embraced, for me
CII (end): Your life made glorious right before our eyes
Nothing compares to this light that shines
I’m forgiven and unashamed to shine in you, I will

mckayleesmom replied: I'm listening right no...Is that you singing Jeanie? You sound so pretty singing...
Boo&BugsMom replied: Yes, that's me and I'm playing the piano, but in a recording studio I'd just be singing. One of my best friends would play the piano because he is SO much better than me. LOL Thanks so much.
mckayleesmom replied: I thought he piano playing was perfect too.
