I wrote this song back in May. It's based off of the first bit of Psalm 139. Thought I'd share it with y'all. It'd be nice to sing someday with more than just myself, so... if you're interested (and musically inclined), I could fire you off a copy of the chords & we could go through it some time (as well as work on some arrangement).
You Are There (Ps. 139)
O Lord, you have searched me and known me.
You know when I fall down and when I rise up;
You have seen my thoughts before me.
You know my path, and you see my lying down.
My God, Your love, it surrounds me
You have covered me behind and before:
You have set Your hands upon me.
To wonderful to fully understand.
Where can I go from Your presence?
Or where can I flee from Your Spirit?
Where can I go from Your presence?
Or where can I flee from Your Spirit?
If I rise up to the heavens, You are there;
If I go down to the depths, You are there.
If I rise up to the heavens, You are there;
If I go down to the depths, You are there.
Even darkness is not dark to You,
And night is bright as day.
Darkness and the light are same to You
So, this is what I'll say:
Wherever I go, You are there.
Wherever I go, You are there.

I love that Psalm. It has been such comfort to me. Many times. YOu play guitar? I did not know. sweet!
Hey Michigan;
I actually do not play guitar--alas. I wish that I did, though time & money (and teachers) have all been lacking for me to get such mad skills into my repertoire. The chords were worked out together with a friend of mine whilst at Crow this past summer.
equally sweet
