]]> I Am the Lord’s I Know https://martysong.com/solo/i-am-the-lords-i-know/ Sat, 21 Jun 2025 20:06:35 +0000 https://martysong.com/?p=296 Over the years I’ve experimented with newer forms of chord structures.  My son, Zack, had been interested in an old Rock and Roll song called “Free Bird” by Ronnie Van Zant.  We’re talking an old 70’s tune.  I analyzed it and found I really liked the chord pattern.  At the time I was interested in updated our old Church of God hymns and found this great song by D. Otis Teasley called, “I Am the Lord’s I Know.”  Taking the chord structure from “Free Bird” I created a new melody to fit these words from Teasley.  The message of the lyrics are so encouraging.  Realizing that we are the Lord’s and He is never far from us.  As the Apostle Paul writes in Romans 8:38-39 that nothing can separate us from God’s love.  Take courage from this message that God will always be with you. Blessings!

]]> No Other Gods Before Him https://martysong.com/solo/no-other-gods-before-him/ Fri, 21 Nov 2025 23:34:50 +0000 https://martysong.com/?p=1283 This song was written back in Oceanside, CA when I was preaching on the Ten Commandments.  I wanted to express the idea that God is a jealous God and doesn’t like sharing our affections with anything or anyone else.  It’s interesting the number of times God uses the word “Adultery” to convey His dismay with the Hebrew people and their choice to worship false gods.  The first commandment is, “You shall have no other gods before Me” (Exodus 20:3 NASB).  You may not be worshiping known foreign gods but anything that steals your affections from God can be seen as having other gods in your life.  My hope is that this song reminds you to put God first in all things.  Even though we will have pain and struggles, life just goes better with God’s blessings!  May this song encourage you to put God first above everything else.  Blessings!
