Thanks again. It was one of those songs that arrived fully formed. I didn’t have to wrestle with lyrics or hardly anything. I get that sometimes, where everything is worked out and pretty well complete, but it is a rare occurrence. In someways, I didn’t write the song… it just showed up on my door set.

I am a songwriter too. I never had the ability to compose until our family went through a difficult period. That’s when I started to read the Bible.

It turned out that I’m a psalmist... a musical Bible of sorts. Holy Spirit downloads
the melody first. Then as I’m reading the Bible, the lyrics fit into the correct song.
