I am a songwriter but until now I have never written a Christian worship song. I would like to share the lyrics here. At this time I don't have a recording to share yet.

JESUS LOVES ME SO BY KENT APPEL


JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME SO


HE DIED ON THE CROSS THERE IN MY PLACE
HE TAKES AWAY THE SINS OF THE HUMAN RACE
HE SHED HIS BLOOD THERE FOR YOU AND ME
HE LOVES US SO MUCH HE WANTS TO SET US FREE


JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME SO


HE TOOK AWAY THE BONDAGE OF MY SINS
FAITH IN HIM IS WHEN NEW LIFE BEGINS
HE HEALS ME AND HE COMFORTS ME TOO
I LIVE TO DO WHAT HE TELLS ME TO DO


JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME SO


JESUS LOVES ME (JESUS LOVES ME)
JESUS LOVES ME (JESUS LOVES ME)
JESUS LOVES ME (JESUS LOVES ME)
JESUS LOVES ME SO


HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD ON THE THIRD DAY
HE WILL TAKE ME TO HEAVEN HE’S THE ONLY WAY
WHERE THERE’S NO MORE PAIN AND NO MORE TEARS
HIS PERFECT LOVE TAKES AWAY ALL FEARS


JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME SO


JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME I KNOW HE REALLY DOES
JESUS LOVES ME SO


AMEN
 
It's hard to imagine it since I don't know the tune, but I like the lyrics.

Thank you, I don't have a way to record it as I don't have equipment these days. I still use cassettes, Lol! The worship leader at church did record it on his cell phone so he can learn the song as he wants to use it in their kids program. If I can get a fairly decent recording or even a simple video, then I can share it.

I was striving for a simple song that not only people can sing along with and makes them feel good, which is does as it is catchy, but also to have the gospel in it. Too many worship songs these days seem to have themes of victory in Christ and lifting him up as Lord, which is part of it, but they don't mention the cross in them and what He did to save us.

Download Audacity software from their website (it is free) and the LAME plugin (which allows you to change the Audacity recording into MP3), plug a microphone into computer, record the song, copyright it if you wish (easy to do online for $35), post it to YouTube, and give us the link.

There are several different ways to record this. Besides the one I mentioned in my earlier post, you can record it on cassette and then use a cable to input it into your computer, using the Audacity software I mentioned. Or you could make a video on your phone or camera and upload that to YouTube.
 
my first worship song was psalm 27.... really encouraged me at a very dark and troubling time in my life.
