Prepare for Takeoff
Today my family and I boarded a plane in Knoxville, Tennessee and headed west to Albuquerque, New Mexico, to sing for a seniors’ conference. The first flight of the day arrived in Dallas early—how often does that happen?—and there we changed planes after a fifty-mile trek from concourse to shuttle to skywalk to tram.
I don’t mind flying, but I usually don’t have very good travelers’ luck. You’d think, having traveled all my life, I’d figure out a way to beat the system. More often than not, I get pulled over in the security line. (Even though I cleaned out the 7 tubes of lip gloss and $48 of change from the bottom of my purse this morning, I guess a blonde with a leopard print suitcase just looks suspicious.) And somehow, the kicking, screaming toddler and the stressed-out, screaming parent always find their way to the seats right behind me.
But today, I scored an aisle seat in the back of a near-empty plane headed to Albuquerque. I nodded hello to my neighbor and pulled out my iPod. I smiled to myself at what a nice flight this would be. I had no idea just how good it was going to get.
A few minutes before landing, the man next to me gestured toward my family and said, “So are you all traveling together for business?” I answered that we sang Christian music together and were singing at a conference this week. He asked our group name, and when I told him, he started laughing.
He said, “You’re not going to believe this, but your family stayed in my home about twenty years ago.” He explained that he was a worship pastor in Texas and the Talleys had sung at his church in the 1980’s. After connecting all the dots, he said, “So what’s God up to in your life these days?”
I shared with him how the Lord has changed my life and what God has led me to do through the new book, music and website, and about our Songs In The Night Power Study. I told him about the scores of new friends I’m making and how we’re all learning that God loves and uses broken people and He wants to give us hope to live a victorious life. He described his own heart for ministry and how he wants to see people hunger and thirst for God in a new way.
I was on the aisle, and my friend was next to me, but God was in the middle of the plane today. (Who knew that God flies coach?!) My seat mate asked if we could pray before we landed, and he proceeded to pray God’s blessing and protection over me and my family and our ministries. He specifically prayed that this ministry would “take off!” It gave me such a charge to keep going and telling broken people there’s hope.
God always knows how to reach you. He always has a watchful eye on you. He never sleeps on airplanes. A divine encounter with God is just around the corner if you’re prepared for takeoff!
I gave him this website address so Lee, if you’re reading this, thanks.
(everybody say hi to Lee!)
Hi, Lee! Welcome!
Hi Lee! Welcome! I’m sure you will enjoy Lauren’s website. I know I love getting
on here and seeing what God is doing in other peoples lives.
Lauren,
count on your attitude changing when you get one of those screaming toddlers for yourself; they aren’t built to sit still for a multi-hour flight; you’ve got to try and wear them down before boarding so they’ll be pre-exhausted and sleep on the plane. Nowadays, when there’s one near me, I say a prayer for the parent to have patience. I know how bad a parent feels to have the toddler that wants to play with the seat in front of him and can’t sit still — though I stop feeling bad when the person in front of the toddler insists on putting the seat all the way back into the toddler’s lap; that’s too much provocation.
Glad you made it through DFW all right. That’s about the worst laid out airport ever for making transfers. Hope you all improve lots of lives in Albuquerque.
I know…spoken like someone with no kids, right?
I know my turn will come!
Lauren, You gotta love those Worship Pastor’s from Texas. Love you guys…and we’re praying for you as well. Hope to see you soon.
Hi Lee! Welcome to the group. You will love this website and the pearls or wisdom from Lauren.
Hi Lauren, I wanted to tell you my 14 -year-old daughter won a talent search contest after singing ‘His Life for Mine’….as a result, she has been invited to sing on a Knoxville TV station. She would love to sing this song again and dedicate it to you. She waits with bated breath every time you release a new CD. Thank you so much for being such an inspiration to a young aspiring Gospel singer who adores your lyrics and your passion for what you do.
Hey Lauren, just wanted you to know that your an inspiration to me. I appreciate how you have taken a christian stand in a world of darkness, giving an example to teens such as myself! Good luck and I’m praying for ya
Hi Lee! How amazing! Hearing this gave me glory bumps! That prayer must have something special!
Hi, Lee, and welcome to our “family.”
How cool, Lauren! God is such an AWESOME GOD!!!!
My family and I are flying to St. Augustine in a couple of weeks, and I’m prepared for “take off!”
God bless.
Hi Lee. You’ll enjoy this website. Lauren and her Family are great singers, and They Love God with all their Heart.
Praise the Lord!!! God is still in control….even in the air!!!
yes even in the air!!!! lol:)
Just wanted to say good luck on your trip and that i will be praying for you may God be with you.
Thank you Lauren for an inspiration that came just in time for me, the Lord knows all about it. I was just listening to a DVD by you and your parents the other night.
I suffer with chronic depression and pain….on the difficult nights when I need an escape I love to watch and listen to you all minister to my heart and it makes the night go so much better. Thank you as always for your love and dedication to our
Lord and to the gifts that He so graciously endowed you with. My best to your parents and also to you my dear one. Keep the inspiration coming ! !
Hi Lee (: Haha! Lauren You Amazzingg! (: Good luck at the confrence (:
Hi, Lee! Glad that God gave you a chance to reconnect with dear Lauren– she and her family are such a blessing, and I am always happy when God blesses her/them right back.
Lauren– Bob is always getting checked at the airports, so you are in good company.
Hello Lee…better late than never! Lauren, once again, thanks for sharing with us. I so agree with your point about God’s watchful eye. Just wanted to add that when you think He’s finished with you (for the time being
, He never ceases to surprise by using you once again to make a point or to just remind all of us what is really important!
Wow! Talk about a meeting in the air! I know being friends with the Talley Trio and especially Lauren has changed my life. Gospel music singers never forget the “little people” or as Lauren says the “broken ones”. It’s so good to know that no matter where life takes me, I can count on my Gospel music friends to pray me through the hard times. Much love to you, Lauren and your precious family!
Hi Lee and welcome aboard. God bless you and your ministry as well and Lauren’s family.
Lee,
Continue to support the Body.
LT Jan
50 mile trek LOL that must have been a large airport!! I’m glad you had a good flight, and that you are interested in the broken ones. I love that song of yours also. Did you write it, or someone you know?
My son, 28, got a little teary when he heard you sing it on the DVD.. He’s a good looking guy, but he’s too busy trying to stop the oil release, he was on youtube but he took it off, wants to refine and improve his idea, maybe get in touch with Coustou (spelling?)
Please pray that this oil leak will be stopped soon, whether Jesse or someone else comes up with the idea to cap it, it will destroy so much wildlife, and also effect many, many people, and as Coustoue says, will effect the food chain, and the currents will take this oil even to western Europe.
Thanks.
Hi Lee,
Thanks for listening to God and speaking out on the airplane. So many people just stay to themselves and hope they go un-noticed. I know you encouraged Lauren and God will richley Bless you!
Oh Ya i forgot to say…..Love ya Lauren God Bless You And Your Familyy (: Your The Best!!!!!
Lauren, I am glad things are going well for you. I was on a cruise that you were on a couple of years ago. I bought some of your CDS for my granddaughter. You autographed them and she was so proud of them . She is a talented singer and is only 13 now. She will be the featured soloist, singing with our choir this coming Sunday. You have a great influence on these youg girls. Thank you!
Hi, Lee!!
Thanks Lauren for sharing your experience 
Howdy Lee! Welcome Abroad! Thanks Lauren for sharing that amazing story of God’s hand at work in your life!
What a way for the Lord to get us all ready for our flight in the sky.!!!
God always seems to show up & show out @ the exact right time….what a Mighty God we serve…..Thanks Lee for sharing & Lauren for caring.
Such a great story, thanks for sharing it with us =) It’s beautiful how the Lord works in all of our lives daily, the smallest things to the largest things. From the people in our lives to total strangers we haven’t met yet, it truly is incredible. Praise the Lord and may grace be with you all =D
Welcome Lee!
What a wonderful way to end a long day…….(I ran errands all day in Knoxville… about 12 hours worth!) Now I am sitting here at my computer with a huge smile on my face,amazed once again at how God pours out His blessings. I just love how He makes all the ‘connections’in our lives! How wonderful for you to pray over Lauren and this ministry. And as you already know, if for no other reason but by just conversing with her today, she is one awesome lady!
Welcome to our world of “Songs in the Night”! You’re gonna be amazed at how God is working………..:-)
HI Lauren,
I discovered the Talley Trio at the iTunes Store and listen to your songs DAILY! Your recent testimony regarding Songs in the Night was inspiring.
I feel so blessed to have your music close at hand (on my ipod) to keep me focused and encouraged throughout the day.
I thank the LORD for you and your family’s music ministry.
I guess oyu would not have liked my daughter or I last week! We flew down to FL from Maryland and she screamed THE WHOLE WAY
Welcome Lee. This is wonderful website.
Lauren, I am in Albuquerque, and so thrilled to see you coming to Glorietta. I have just about worn out the cd I got at The Singing In The Sun. I play “He’s Alive” over and over. You have such a remarkable voice and so annointed. God bless you and your family.
Any one think we need to pray to somehow have this oil release stopped successfully? Or is that outside the range of these comments.
not at all we need to pray for what is happening on the gulf!
HI LEE , WELCOME TO A GREAT GROUP OF PEOPLE . aND LAUREN AND ANYONE WHO KNOWS THE POWER OF PRAYER ,I HAVE A REQUEST , MY HUSBAND IS IN THE HOSPITAL AND IS HAVING HEART SURGERY AT 7AM TOMORROW .

hey,peggy a word of encouragement for you wed. the 19th i had a full arterial bypass performed on my left leg.afterwards the surgeon told me i was giving him fits during surgery because everything was’nt going as it was supposed to so imagine my surprise when he said thank GOD,that he had guided his hands and enabled him to do what was’nt going to get done with out the LORD’S interveening.HALLELALUJAH to the GOD we serve.
i think i spelled that wrong sorry
Lee, I remember those days of blessing as pastors we loved every minute of fellowship and ministry.Thank you for the memories and welcome to Larens web. I so injoyed watching her grow up to be such a widespread and anointed ministry.
Hello Lauren, I want you to know that I really appreciate your ministry in music. I bought your cd “Songs in the Night” recently when I was going through some tough times in my life, and those songs were a major blessing to me. Thank you. And just something to think about…. It says in Philippians 2:13 It is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. That means God is personally involved in each of our lives! What a comfort. Thank you for allowing God to work in your life. Love in Christ.
Hello lee,hello lauren.i’ve done my fair share of jetting the wild blue yonder,as i was in the military so i envy no one who has to fly especially in these days of all the extra stuff you have to do just to get on the plane.i never flew with to many children around but can imagine what kind of tylenol factor that could be.i would say that when i was doing my flying you were’nt born yet and they probably had not made the diapers you’d be wearing someday.anyway the real reason i’m on this comment page is to ask people to do me (and you) a favor i have mcafee virus protection and when i go to a site or do searches my macafee button turns green to let me know it’s a safe site.well last month i clicked the macafee ballon because the buton stayed grey and they said they had never tested your site and did’nt know if it was safe or not,but if i would be willing to write a review on your site and become what they call a site reviewer (which i was glad to do ) and gave you a dazzling review on your site but the macafee button is still remaining grey as if to say they don’t trust my assessment of laurentalleyonline.com so i was wondering if a bunch of your fans that may have macafee click on their button and write you a rave review then maybe the macafee button would turn green and anyone that found themselves here would be assured that this is a safe site to visit.How about it all you Lauren Talley fans want to help her out and let everybody know it’s safe to be here.sorry for such a long letter.but before i go i’d like to let y’all know how i became a fan.i was a truck driver before i injured my back and they were playing I LOVE THE LORD TOTAL PRAISE AMEN on the radio every day i had never heard of the talleys but i thought that was probably the most beautiful song i had ever heard so i had to buy the cd it was on what a fantastic wonderful voice probably the most powerful female voice in the industry today .any way i love your singing.
Darrell,
Thanks for writing the glowing review. Perhaps not too many of the other people who visit here are running McAfee, but if anyone else is, any positive reviews would be great. Thanks again!
Daniel
I have a quick question and sorry for posting here, but I didn’t know how else to get an answer. Lauren, or anyone, which episode(s) of the show “Touched By An Angel” featured Lauren? Each show has a title and hubby and I would love to have those shows for our collection. He saw them in the past, but I haven’t had the pleasure yet. Thanks for an answer! Wanda
wanda its season 7 espisodes 724 &725

Titled “Shallow Water”
Hi Lauren,
I have one of your cds and i’m pretty sure i’ve worn that thing out. I listen to it every day on the way to and from school, well basicly every where i go. It never fells everytime i listen to it i feel the spirit of God pass by. You have been an inspiration and an example for me to look at. You have showed me that its possible for someone to start living for God at a young age and still hang on as you get older. God saved me when i was 9 and now im 18 and a senior in High school getting ready to head to college. I have walked away from God in the past and by Gods mercy and grace he has forgiven me and took me back. Since then i have learned with God by your side and living for him doors will open and many blessing will come. I pray everyday that as i get out on my own i will continue to hold on and live for him. Thank you for your songs and for being the way you are.
Gabby,
So glad to hear from you. Just remember that every day we wake up we have to choose to die to ourselves and live for Christ. It’s not always easy, but God will help you make the right choices if you’ll ask for His help. God bless you!
Okay,
Hi Lee, what’s happening brother? Lauren doesn’t have to ask twice, or even pull our arm. So we’re glad to have you in here. It’s good to know that God flies coach, that’s very reassuring. Even better to know that He is with us always, even unto the end of the world. So have fun and enjoy yourself. Lauren does a good job of keeping us informed and on our toes, in other words, we never know what to expect, but, we know this, it will be good.
Okay, I Know this is really random but where did you get you blue zipp up dress?? Its So Pretty!
The blue dress is from Cache
Hahah Thankk You(: I Lovee That Dress. Hey My Mom Wanted Me To Ask You If You DId Vocal Lessons (: Lol

Lauren,
I would be so interested too!!!!
You should be my friend lauren (: lol!
Hi, Lee! Welcome to Lauren’s site. God bless you for your encouragement to her.
Hi Lauren, i saw you on In Touch with Charles Stanley on mothers day and all I have been able to think about is the song you sang about a rag doll and a girl who came home with needle marks on her arms I am sure you know the song. Can you please tell me where to find this song on the internet so that I can share this with my family. It’s a beautifly song and really touched my heart. Thank you for any response that you are able to give me it is really appreciated!!

hey Lee welcome to the wonderful family.

Hi Lauren,
This is Kelly…I posted that pic of us from Bluegate in Shipsi, on facebook. I didnt know if you recieved it or not…Also, thank you all for the blessed evening last saturday in Shipsewana! I am so glad we decided to go at the last minute and got GOOD seats!!! I just wanted to say that it was truley a blessed night…I got home and read your book, straight through, never put it down til I was done! Then Sunday I re read it and hilited parts that really hit home or stuck out to me! I could so relate to some of it. As you know Ive been struggling with some stuff as I sorta shared at the concert real quick, wont go into detail on here! But, I felt the same way, having all these questions for God…like why do I have to keep going thru this, why do i hurt so bad, will it ever go away? ETC….Ive been asking those questions for yrs. I feel trapped in this cycle and environment and I dont know how to get out, and it gets discouraging. I dont understand why I have to live with the abuse and had to all these yrs. But reading your book helped me realize a little bit, that maybe there is a reason, and that there are others out there who are going thru similar things maybe..It still hurts, I still feel trapped, but I dont feel completely alone now! And your cd, was Amazing…I listen to it every night now as I go to bed.. I have alot of dark nights and sleepless nights myself…I have chronic migraines, and am being sent to a specialist at the state hospital U of M! Your cd helps soothe me and help me to remember I am not alone in the night! Your voice is amazing never truley listened to you til Saturday night!! WOW GIRL!!! lol….You are definately a blessing and are gifted! Keep it up, your trials and story are encouraging and your personality is GREAT!!! I am moving to NC in July or August, hope to catch up and see you perform again soon!!! I love ya!
Do you have email address or is this it?
Thanks.
Kelly
P.S. If you could plz keep me in your prayers as I am trying to find a counselor to go to, and as I am going thru these tests at U of M…for migraines and for other issues!!!
Hi Kelly! I’m so glad you posted!
It was great to meet you this past week. I’m so glad the book and CD have ministered to you. I did it just for people like myself and you- people who feel there is no way out of their pain.
But as I learned and wrote in the book, there IS a reason, and there IS a way out. It’s not an easy road, but God will give us the grace and power to live victorious Christian lives if we’re willing to follow Him. I think God has been leading you and placing people and circumstances in your path to help guide you. He’s actively pursuing you, Kelly, and He wants to transform your life.
I want you to know that if you’re saved, you’ve got the power of God working on the inside of you, and that power gives us the ability to rise above the things in life that beat us up, hurt us, and keep us from truly living. I encourage you to get in the Word and start studying (the Songs In The Night book and corresponding Scriptures would be a great place to start
). But the main point is to start talking to God and finding out what He has to say about your life. Prayer and the Word- that’s where you’ll find your strength.
In the meantime, you’re welcome back here anytime…there are lots of people here who know what it means to hurt, but also know what it’s like to live in victory. And you can drop me an email at lauren@laurentalleyonline.com (the contact page will take you to the same place). God bless!
I believe in the power of prayer so, if everyone could join and pray for my grandpa George Thompson, he was taken to big heart hospital in Michigan last night by ambulance and is having catherization this morning…It’s all left in God’s hands now, and I just have to trust he will pull through or that God will use this experience to bring my family back together!! Thanks!!!
hey kelly, have you heard if your gandpa is doing? i hope well. hope to hear back soon
Keeping you and your family in prayer!!!!
GOD BLESS YOU
he is home..had complete blockage…put stints in…he is slowly getting better..but he has skin cancer too..so that has been difficult for him..has gone to his lymph nodes…
Also, I was in hospital wed-thurs..got released this morning at 5am…long story..but ended up being diagnosed with severe chronic status migraines and anxiety attacks..couldnt breathe..major head pain and vomiting..so its been a rough road!! thanks for the prayers..
Hey Lauren….Had a similar thing happen last year….I was traveling with a country rock band last year for a July 4th USO / Armed Forces Entertainment sponsored show in Singapore…When we got on the plane in Atlanta, the gentleman next to me explained that he and his wife were missionaries and he wanted to give me something…He gave me a small book that is designed to minister specifically to Marines….but he said to make sure someone got it while I was there….I told him I would….We made our way to Singapore….On the evening of July 3rd we were doing a show for a group of about 300 servicemen….At the end of the show a Navy serviceman walked up and began talking to me….God immediately shared with me that this is the guy that needs the book…Midway through the conversation I asked him to hold on for a moment and got the book out of my bag….I explained where I got the book and much to my amazement his response was..” Man…you don’t know how much I needed this….I’m a Christian and have been all of my life, but when you’re out on a submarine for months at a time, it’s very hard to maintain your Christian witness”…He explained that he was very much in need of some Christian influence and thanked me for the book…It really made the trip to see how God sent my half way around the world to minister to a guy for 5 minutes so that his life and Christian witness could be positively influenced…..I just love how God works….May God richly bless you and the family…..God’s best work in you guys is yet to come….
Lauren,
I don’t know if you remember me or not (Trinity Gospel Expo – Van Wert, OH) (I’m working on getting a pic of me on here) I am the one not able to get online with everyone as I’m working at that time. I have only seen the 1st lesson. I have been very busy since my son just graduated from high school and had his party last Sunday. Last night I read some of the answers for the first lesson. I plan to read them all. I was very touched by the ones I read. God Bless all of you! I feel like I’m family already even though I’ve never been in touch with you. I wanted to ask you if you could send me the 2nd video. For some reason I never received it. Sorry, I just now noticed it since I wasn’t able to get on here until now. Can’t wait to continue with the rest of the lessons. I read your book within the next week after I got it that night. Awesome! It has truly inspired me. Just at the perfect time to read it, too. Thank You Lauren and God Bless! Hope to hear from you soon! Karen
Karen, are you talking about the audio of the conference calls? If so, log into the members site and you can get the audio from the “Download Later” page on the left.
Ok Daniel, THANKS!. I was on my email and saw the reminders of the next lesson however the 2nd lesson reminder wasn’t sent. I’m way behind. I’m planning on catching up. I see it on the website. Sorry for any bother:). Thanks again!! Karen
Not a problem – I’m here to help!
Welcome Lee! If you keep listening to the Talley Trio, KirkTalley, or the awesome Lauren Talley Yyour life will be changed forever. It has definitly changed mine
Lauren will you be my friend ? I really need one now :/
hey Lauren, it’s me, Sandy….I’m the one writing the small book…I talked w/you a little about it at the conference…..Well…guess what..it’s done! The Lord truely provided $ for 200 copies! I don’t have any idea how to send you one b/c I really want to see what you think…your mom, too. I know yall will be in Gainesville GA in August….so I’m going to bring one then if I don’t find you before. I’m still praying much for God to use this to help others to just hold on. I was praying about it on the way to work one day & right when me & the Lord were talkin & I was saying to Him, I just want to give people a reason to hold on….at that moment yalls song was on & yall sang “Hold On”..not just the song, but when I was saying hold on….so were yall! So, that was confirmation again that I know I am doing what He wants me to…..just seems slow go…..hard to get it out there. I’ve sent it to a few pastors in the area, hoping to have them put their church info in the back so I can maybe put it at shelters in the area w/their info so folks will know of a safe place to come, but no luck so far….just no response I shld say. But, I’ll just keep being a hummm…..thorn in their side or maybe I shld say umm..not a pest….but I’ll keep at them to hear from them I shld say. Anyway…I have been excited to tell you ….my copyright is complete too….You take care & thanks for listening & I look forward as I always do to seeing you & your family soon! In His love, Sandy
Howdy!!! Hope all is well and thanks for the tip on putting my pic on here. Blessing and talk to ya later!1
Hey lauren,
My name is Jonathan. I was glad to hear you are a colts fan. You don”t get much better than that. Keep up the good work. You have an amazing voice, and a great talent from the Lord. Never take that for granted. Go colts!!!!!!1
Lauren,
this is a wonderful story. i had chills after reading the first 5 sentences.
you are a true blessing to me and my family. I’m in a singing group with my sister and brother in law, and when the we hear you sing a new song we know we have to get it and practice it, because we know if it is a blesing to us, it will definitely be a blessing to our church… we have just started singing the broken ones and God just blessed. Thank you and your family for everying thing, because without the people in the world like yall we would not have great gospel music to listen to, and would not get a chance to see God’s Blessing he has laid out for yall. Praying for you constantly!!!!!
love you guys, and may God keep blessing you richly!!!!!!!
God bless you Lauren for what you are doing in His service togehter with your parents.. I hope some day that you guys make it to Sweden and have a concert..
Sincerely Magnus Nordlund, Sweden (Northern Europe)..
lauren- watching MPBN public tv the other day and was blown away with a TV spot of you singing a song, don’t know what the name of it is though. I had never heard of you before BUT what a voice! I’ve since downloaded many albums BUT I can’t find the song that I heard. Your refrain is “MY GOD is…” MY GOD is….” I don’t know the words but it’s an upbeat song with everyone else singing along. PLEASE I need to hear it again. many thanks for your good music.
god bless
dan
GREAT CONCERT ON INSPIRATION TV SATURDAY NIGHT….GOD BLESS
Lauren, I really enjoyed hearing your family in Shipshewana. It was great to have a chance to talk to you one on one. I can’t wait to see you again.
Hey Lauren! I want to second what Tony above me said…Y’all were so awesome last night on the Night Of Worship concert. It was great to see you do some of your new stuff from the “Songs In The Night” cd. I love “In Christ Alone,” and WOW, so did that audience.
Love,
Lisa
hey lauren , My name is tammy i live in corning arkansas and i resently gave my heart back to god. i have had difficult times since i was little and my mom had no clue what i was going through. For 10 years my own grandfather had abused me and I did not have the strength to tell my mom until i was 15 years old. i have had bad times other than that my stepdad abused me and my sister and my two brothers. any way i just wanted you to know that this is all in the past and i have moved on. when i was 17 i was saved and baptised and i was in church everytime the doors were open. we all went with my dad and my mom when she did not have to work. i got married when i was 19 and had my first child at 20. my baby now is 12 and my oldest is now 14 i pray everynight that god takes care of my kids and that he does not let my kids to go through what i did as i was growing up. six years ago my real dad passed away and i fell out of church. I blamed god for the past six years for taking people that i loved away from me….my grandpa passed four years ago and my dads brother a year ago and my mother-n-law 6 months ago. the day we burried my mother n law that night our house burt to the ground we was all asleep and if it wasn’t for my oldest son we would not be here now. the past two weeks god has been dealing with my heart and i started listening to your songs and they helped me to see through everything in my life to see that it was best for all those that passed they are all in heaven and if i did not change my life i would not be able to join my dad and my loved ones in heaven so when i heard the song lord i believe in you and his life for mine i just broke i gave my life back to god and I am starting back to church sunday with a girl i have been talking to i used to work with her. anyway i just wanted you to know that you have really been blessed and touched by the grace of god and i love your songs. They help me to feel closer to god and i love it.
love
Tammy

Great songs ! Could you send me by e-mail the Chords and lyrics to ” Orphans of God ” Thank you Steve sgiuliano51@gmail.com simple chord format if possible I want to play on 12 string Taylor giular. Again we love your music. We are Messianic Jews. Also can you record a song using our Lords Hebrew Name “Yeshua” The Messianic market is exploding around the world. But we want songs in the Name the Farther Named His Son in Hebrew “Yeshua” Thank You .
Shalom
Steve
