What A DayWhen I get Home I will see allThe holy men I read aboutPeter and John, James, Luke, and PaulAnd brother Tom without a doubtAnd I do believe there will beKing David at the harpA song of praise with every chordWhat a sight to see, the redeemedAnd the angels gathered round worshiping the LordWhat a day that will beOh what a day that will be! When we get Home, our Eternal HomeThere’ll be no more sick and dyingNo one is sad, no one is aloneAnd there will be no more cryingHe will wipe away every tearFrom His children’s eyesAnd put a smile upon their facesWhat a happy day when we seeOur Lord in ParadiseCrowned as King of KingsWhat a day that will beOh what a day that will be!What a day that will beWhat a day that will be...

Now I Can SeeI can feel a warmth inside filling meA hand touched my eyesNow I believe the Son did riseAnd He will be my Everlasting LightNow I can see what He wants me to seeI then shall be like a tree planted by a riverAnd I shall not be movedCome and walk with Me, He saidTalk with Me, I am your Friend, your FriendGreater love hath no man than this;That a man lay down his life for his friendsAnd He did, yes He didThat was God’s love for manHe took upon Him all of our sinsAnd this was His plan. His planNow I can feel that warmth inside filling meHis hand touched my lifeNow I can see what He wants me to seeI then shall be like a tree planted by a riverAnd I shall not be moved

I Will SingEach morning I will look up to the LordAnd greet the day with a songEternal life is what He gave to meNow He’s my source of joyI will sing, I will play to my KingHis right hand is my strengthI will standI believe in a living God who loves meI believe in a loving God who livesMy Jesus!My Jesus!My Jesus!Jesus my Lord!

This recording is a total expression of how I feel.
I was inspired by a dear Friend to write these songs.
I cherish the moments I had in the studio with Gary Hedden,
as we enjoyed the companionship of our Friend.
Listen to the music and you just might meet this Friend.

”Sing to the Lord a new song,
and His praise from the end of the earth! ...
a song such as has never been heard
in the heathen world!”
—Isaiah 42:10 (Amplified Bible)
