Special Thanks to Jarrod Headley!
Special thanks to Jarrod Headley of North Park Studios here in Colorado Springs. Jarrod is a wizard (actually he is the Grand Wizard of Northpark) when it comes to sound technician skills, the best by far I've ever seen in action! He is also an accomplished musician who plays drums, acoustic and electric guitar, bass, and midi keyboards. Jarrod also sings harmonies on most of my songs. He has added beautiful musical texture to these songs. I am very grateful for his friendship and help with the production, arrangement, and musicality that I hope you find on my site!

Lyrics for 'Wholly Divine'
(Ref: Psalm 1, Psalm 145)
Like a tree by the water whose leaves never wither,
The blessed man walks not in the way of the sinner.
He delights in the holy laws of his Lord,
And he walks with a sure foot, eyes facing forward.
Chorus
(Our God is) Slow to anger, quick to forgive – boundless in mercy and grace.
(You are) The God of compassion, tender and kind, holy and loving – wholly divine.
The Lord watches over His sons and daughters,
Guiding and leading them beside still waters.
Righteousness comes not by struggle and strife,
But by faith in the one God, the author of life.
Me, on the other hand, born sinful man. Quick to anger and slow to understand.
The selfish, jealous child of fear & greed. But by your sacrifice I am redeemed!
When we deserve it, and when we don’t,
When we obey You, and when we won’t,
When we say yes, and when we say no,
When we come to You, and when we turn and go.
Chorus
