In the Lord I have put my trust
In the Lord I have put my trust

History & Testimonies
I
just thought I would send a note thanking you for allowing your song
“When I Am
Afraid” to be in
the public domain for non-profit use. It’s a great song
and aligns perfectly with the Psalm I am trying to teach my pre-schoolers at
church.
I found it late last night needing a song for this morning. Since you had
both the
audio recording and the sheet music available I was easily able to learn
the
song in order to teach it today.
(Rachel, from Gordon College in
Massachusetts)
I
have to tell you that I have been reading through Psalms and got to Psalm 56
-
"When I am afraid I put my trust in you..."
Every time I come to a verse
that you wrote a song to, the song comes to mind,
so I was singing that
little song for the past few days and it has been a real blessing to me.
You
have a mighty ministry, brother, and you know that God
is in it by the way
he's taking it to the oddest corners of the earth to bless
fellow believers
who we will never meet this side of heaven. There is no way that
anyone could
make that happen, no matter how hard you tried, it's got to be the Lord.

This month we are working
at a camp in Mississippi that was hard hit by
hurricane Katrina. This week during our morning devotional time, one of
our SOWER couples gave us a beautiful new song to learn and that song was
"Holy, Holy, Holy"
written by Ralph P. Merrifield of New Hope
Music.
This couple, Harry and
Judi from Michigan, both play several
instruments (guitar, dulcimer etc) and have visited your web site and use
several of your songs. ("Center of My Soul" and
"When
I Am Afraid")
(Carlie, from SOWER
Ministries)
As I was in the nursing home tonight with a dying relative...
words came to me. The words were 'When I am afraid I will trust in
You'.
It continued to minister to me until I got up and searched the Internet
to see if there really was such a song! ... it must have been your
song.... Thank you...
(Sally, from Texas)
"I just stumble on your
site. Awesome. I found three (songs) so far...
I had to stop, cuz I could be here all day. Do you have these three on CD?
"Center of My Soul",
"Come To Me"
and "When I Am Afraid"
I love the words. Awesome, Awesome.
Finally someone who
understands that musicians need
sheet music or chords to go with the words."
