New Song Preview: You Spoke The Stars



It's been a long time coming but my latest song is all ready for release and you'll be able to download it here FOR FREE on Thurs. It's called You Spoke The Stars (Mercy) and it's a congregational praise & worship song.

That's right - you heard me! Not a 6 and a half minute epic about Schindler & Geldof, or a blues from the point of view of the unborn, or a Santana style Sunday school song or even a musical hall inspired agitpop satire on urban regeneration.

So if you think that's gonna ring your (Church) bells I'll see you back here on Thurs download the acoustic demo mp3.

Here's the lyrics...

You Spoke The Stars (Mercy)

You spoke the stars,
You spoke the seas,
You spoke the earth
And every creature that would be
You held the dust
Within your hands
And breathed your life into
The lifeless form of man

And so you made us to display
The glory of your perfect reign
But swift to stray, we disobey
And hide from you in shame.

But your mercy has found me.
In your grace, you embrace
The child that once was lost.
Let mercy surround me.
Help me see, I'll always be
Encircled by your love.
As a billion stars and galaxies
Proclaim your power so eloquently
I will praise the mercy of my God.

The stars, they speak,
The oceans roar
While mankind sits there speechless,
Silent as the soil.
Your fingerprints,
We can't erase
and yet we're drawn to worship
What our own hands make.

What love constrained you to exchange
your Son for those who bring you shame?
When everyday you throw away
The sky and start again?

Your mercy has found me.
In your grace, you embrace
The child that once was lost.
Let mercy surround me.
Help me see, I'll always be
Encircled by your love.
As a billion stars and galaxies
Proclaim your power so eloquently
I will praise the mercy of my God.
