I wrote O To Be Like Thee ten years ago. Although its initial outlet was intended for congregational worship, there was no outlet at the time and so I arranged it for SATB and it was published in the mixed voice series of Sing to the Lord. It followed a trend of setting older lyrics to a new tune and spoke to me as a declaration to become more like Jesus, to seek His face and long to reflect Him in my life.

Singing God's Praises

Singing God’s Praises is intended to be a song that congregations can use to proclaim how they want to live their lives. It’s a song that declares how we choose to sing praises to God in all situations. I believe that if we want others to be inspired by Christ in us, we need to have joy as we share God’s goodness with those who may not know Him. Sometimes, it can be hard to do this through certain times and seasons in our lives, but with an understanding that we have the enduring love of God with us for all our days, we can have that song of praise ready for all who meet us to hear.
