My Songs.
Song Descriptions
Summer Rain
There is nothing in the summer months that is more refreshing after a good hard rain after a prolonged period of warm weather. There is also a spiritual message in the song that some will get if you ponder on the words.
Because of You
There is nothing more inspiring for a song than to write it about the one you love.
Letter to Sarah
Letter to Sarah was inspired by the eloquent letter Major Sullivan Ballou wrote to his wife Sarah two weeks before he was killed in the First Battle of Bull Run on the 29th July 1861 during the American Civil War
Frightened
Do you face up to your fears or run away from them? If you face up to them, where does your resolve come from?
Utah Sky
The Latter-day Saints were forced out of Nauvoo and went West. This song tells that story.
Crisbrook Mill
As a young family money was tight and holidays too expensive. So, each summer we would visit my sister who lived in an old mill house complete with water wheel. Welcome to Crisbrook Mill.
O Canada
During my secondment with the RCMP in Canada, I wrote this song about the joys and sadness of Canada as I experienced them in 2000.
Him
There is famous painting of the Sermon on the Mount by Carl Bloch. In the foreground of the painting is the figure of a man looking up at Jesus Christ as he speaks. This song is his story
