Psalm 16

New praise tune.... there are quite a few flubs in this video recording and its not my best vocal or guitar performance ever, but I'd only practiced once and you'll get the idea. Anyway, here are the lyrics.... it's based on Psalm 16...

Psalm 16
So long we've waited for you
for now we're holding to a truth
that you will not leave us abandoned to the grave
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
We sing a joyful song of praise!

You have made known to me,
the way of life and liberty
within the presence of the King
I want to sing a joyful melody
the grave can hold no victory
Hallelujah praise the King

my cup and portion overflow
my hearts alive with this new hope
that you will not leave us abandoned to the grave
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
We sing a joyful song of praise!

Apart from you I'd have nothing
Apart from you I'd have nothing
Apart from you I'd have nothing
Apart from you I'd have nothing
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! I will not be shaken!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! I will not be shaken!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! I will not be shaken!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! I will not be shaken!

Regular tuning, taken down a full step to D... then I have the cut capo on fret 2. Sounds much better when not recorded through my laptop microphone...

Very powerful! Keep on sharing your blessings

Great Job.

That was fantastic! Amen!

[Heystudios1]

Great tune dude..praise Him indeed...don't stop.

[rjpfletcher]

Good stuff!

I agree, an actual mic would have really proven, what I suspect is an actually good voice. Your guitar is astounding!
