I write mostly gospel songs and have written some country. I saved some of my songs on sound cloud. I don't play an instrument, just sing acapello. .. I would love to have my songs put to music. I sing them at church.

Verse 1
I feel You reaching out to me. I hear You pleading with me.
You are trying so hard, Lord, to get me to see,
There is nothing on this earth except You that I need.
Chorus
I need You. I need You. Oh my Lord, I need You.
Verse 2
I see Your messages sent throughout the land.
You're trying very hard, Lord to make me understand.
When life on Earth is thru, I can be with You, for eternity.
All I need is You.
Chorus
I need You. I need You. Oh my Lord, I need You.
Verse 3
I smell the smoke from the fires everywhere.
You're telling me that I need to get on my knees in prayer.
There's not a single soul Lord, that will make it out alive.
But if we trust in You, Lord, we can have eternal life.
Chorus
I need You. I need You. Oh my Lord, I need You.
Verse 4
I have taste Your wine and I have broke Your bread,
The symbol of your body and all the blood You've shed.
I'm listening very intently to every word You've said.
It's hard to remember all the verses that I've read.
Chorus
I need You. I need You. Oh my Lord, I need You.
Verse 5
You're trying very hard, Lord, to open up my eyes.
To let me know there's Heaven beyond the smoke filled skies.
Chorus
I need You. I need You. Oh my Lord, I need You.
Verse 6
I feel You reaching out to me. I hear You pleading with me.
You are trying so hard, Lord, to get me to see,
There is nothing on this earth except You that I need.
Chorus
I need You. I need You. Oh my Lord, I need You.
I need You. I need You. Oh my Lord, I need You.

Down by the river, I can watch the sunrise,
beneath the tall trees, under colorful skys.
I talk to Jesus. He's there with me.
I walk with Jesus, where nobody sees.
I brought my fishing pole. A line I cast in.
Verse 2
While I sit waiting, I confess my sins.
Jesus will listen. He hears my prayers.
It's so nice knowing that He's right there.
My time with Jesus, my very best friend,
Is time worth spending til the very end.

He knows my problems. I tell Him all.
Wherever I'm going, I take Him along.

As the sun sets slowly, as the light goes dim,
with night time falling, I sit next to my best friend.

He knows my problems. I tell Him all.
Wherever I'm going, I take Him along.

Now, in total darkness, stars flickering above,
I close my eyes to sleep and I feel love.

Verse 1
Someone was telling me that His love is free.
That He could even forgive someone like me.
I should give to Him my heart, and all that I own.
And in return that I could have Heaven for my home.
Verse 2
I was told to thank Him and take time to pray.
To ask Him to forgive me each and every day.
For I am a sinner and my life would someday end.
My choice is very simple. Ask Jesus to come in.
Verse 3
This same someone was telling me, though I am just a man,
That I could be with Jesus forever in the promised land.
To praise Him now, with all my heart, for Jesus is the son.
Give my life to Jesus, for He is the Holy one.
SPEAK
I LISTENED VERY CLOSELY TO THE STORY AND THE PLAN,
AND I COULD PICTURE JESUS WITH HIS OUT STRETCHED HANDS.
Sing
And suddenly, it hit me. I knew it had to come.
The Holy Ghost had filled my heart and I had met the Son.
Verse 4
My fear was gone and all my pain, my troubles and my strife.
I learned to trust in Jesus. To Him, I gave my life.
My love for Him grew stronger. Peace came to me on earth.
I knew I'd been forgiven. It's almost like new birth.
Verse 5
So now all that I'm telling you is that His love is free.
He can forgive someone like you as He has forgiven me.
You are told to thank Him and take time to pray.
To ask Him to forgive you, each and every day.
For you are a sinner and your life will someday end.
Your choice is very simple. Ask Jesus to come in.

Verse 1
Good Lord, Your heart is breaking.
Nobody listens to You no more.
You've reached out with Your arms wide open.
But it seems nobody's comin' towards Heaven's door.
CHORUS
Lord, I pray they finally wake up.
Lord, I pray before all their lives are or'
That they come to You for their soul's sake.
Begging You for Your mercy when time is no more.
You've sent warnings, fire and rain.
Nobody listened, flooding and flames.
Now there's covid-killer 19.
We must all get on our knees.
Verse 2
Good Lord, You must be weary,
Just watching how this all plays out.
You laid down laws for us to live by,
But they all chose another path, there's no doubt.
CHORUS
Lord, I pray they finally wake up.
Lord, I pray before all their lives are or'
That they come to You for their soul's sake.
Begging You for Your mercy when time is no more.
You've sent warnings, fire and rain.
Nobody listened, flooding and flames.
Now there's covid-killer 19.
We must all get on our knees.
We must all get on our knees.
