Hey guys,

Here's a praise song I wrote a couple weeks back.
No way could I sing the vocals on this one, so made an instrumental of the song instead.
The lyrics are below.

I created this one in BIAb and assembeled it and mixed using Sonar.

Instruments used in this song

Intro midi Tyros strings
Melody midi Tyros flute and strings.
Bass RT 518:Bass, Electric, Pop HalfNotes Ev 085
Piano RT 365:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 085
Guitar RT 362:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 085
Soloist RT 1602:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm Pop16 Ev16 065
String SYMPH01A midi Tyros horns and strings
Drums midi

Lyrics:

He Breaks Through.
Tim Lawrence. (2012)

(Intro.)
V1
Late in the night
L'one in the dark
when doubts of his word
fill up my heart
Down on my knees again
and Prayin' to him

C:
And he brakes through
All that I am
He rings true
In this life, with his plan.
He's the key
That open the door
And Set me free
From these chains That I wore

V2
Days turn to night
and Nights turn to dawn
I let them go
Let them move on
Cause' there is his word
Gives me strength in this world.

(C)

(Break)

Bridge:
And there is his word
Gives me strength in this world.

(C)

Tim,

Again, you created a beautiful song fit for a movie production.
The melody line is very nice.

Thanks for sharing!

You outta ask if anyone on the forum would sing it for you Tim, lots of folks here love Praise and worship songs. I would start with Steve Young, he's a preacher with a great voice and a great guy too.

Hey Tim,

You should sing it. Put it in your most comfortable key and go for it. You might surprise yourself. I know it's just me, but I had a hard time following/matching the melody with the lyrics posted. Enjoyed it anyway.

Very pretty instrumental.

Hey thanks much for the nice comments Steve and Val.
Much appreciated guys.

Really lookin' for a girl singer for this one Steve, but I might end up having to sing this one my self.
Unfortunately I don't think the arrangement sounds as good in the key I'd have to sing it in.
