My Songs

These songs began as my own original poems—words that grew from quiet moments of reflection, faith, and everyday life. Come listen.

The Well of the God Who Sees Me

“The Well of the God Who Sees Me” is a gentle, reflective song born from Psalm 139 and Hagar’s encounter with God in the desert (Genesis 16:13-14). It explores the wonder of being fully known by a God who searches both the outside and the deepest parts of the heart—seeing our paths, our hidden failures, our fears, loneliness, and tears. Yet instead of accusation, He responds with mercy, grace, and a tender invitation to come and drink deeply from the well of His presence.

The song moves from quiet awe at God’s all-seeing love to honest acknowledgment of human weakness, then rises into hope and celebration: the same eyes that see our struggles also see the beauty He is forming in us and the image of Christ we are becoming. It is both a personal testimony and an open invitation for anyone who has ever felt unseen to discover that the God who sees them still calls them near.

The Rocking Chair Quest

This song begins in the cozy safety of a rocking chair by the fire—content to read about adventures while never leaving home. It explores the quiet temptation of that “safe courage,” the kind that costs nothing and risks nothing.

Then comes the turning point: an invitation is accepted, trembling hands are taken, and the real journey begins. Mountains, storms, dragons, and far shores follow. Along the way, the desire for the old nest fades. What remains is a pilgrim’s heart—no longer content to sit still, ready to leap up and ask, “Where to next?” It’s a musical parable about choosing the living adventure with God over the comfortable chair.

The Patchwork Quilt

This heartfelt song uses the image of a handmade patchwork quilt to tell a story of redemption and grace. What once seemed like worthless, tattered scraps—failed dreams, painful seasons, and worn hopes—are carefully gathered by ancient hands. As the singer traces each patch, both dark and light, she discovers that every piece carries a story of God’s faithfulness. The quilt becomes a tangible reminder that nothing in our lives is wasted, and that the very things we might have discarded are now what keep us warm with lasting love.

The Woodcarver

Through the story of a woodcarver who turns a fallen branch into a graceful dancer, the song reminds us that we are chosen, refined, and ultimately held up by God to dance for all to see—exactly as He envisioned.
