Sharing melodies

Once upon a time I used to love picking up a guitar and strumming, singing rubbish and writing songs. Long time friends would remember monstrosities such as "The Camfgians", "Modern Lutist", "Yesterday" and "Quadripledgic". Nowadays, the inspiration doesn't quite flow as smoothly, perhaps stoppered by the counter current of time. However, once in a while I would still love to share some pieces around. Here are 2 of my songs...inspired by religious sentiments. You can download the mp3 below.

When

When you call out to me

There are many times I cannot hear

There are many times I can't draw near

When tomorrow becomes unclear

When you whisper my name

I can feel it's not the same

Take me back, show me how, I know it's now

I cannot wait, there's a door in me that I must open

Pour out your love, take me closer take me to the moment

Where you are found, where love is all around

Take my life, there's nothing I can't leave behind

When I stand on my own

Doing anything I want to do

Keeping everything I want from you

And forsaking what I know is true

When I'm spinning my wheel

When I'm blind towards the hurt you feel

Right my wrong, make me strong, lead me on

O My Child

Goodbye to the days of searching your heart

Where memories tear you apart

Groping in the dark you have found the spark

And suddenly you have a new start

You must be oh so tired

You couldn't count the times that you cried

A helping hand you desired

And now you hear the voice

The still small voice that comes from inside

Saying O my child, it took you a while

But you answered me today, now I'm coming in to stay

I will take your hand, and then you'll understand

A futile chase you leave behind, an endless stream of love you'll find

Welcome to the days of growing in love

With mercies that are so undeserved

Walking in the light throughout the long night

Surrounded by a feeling so right
