This video really challenged me to look at the mission field between my own two feet. I hope it will challenge you too to realise that there is such a huge need right on our own door steps or in our own town/city. It helps show that if we really loved these people around us instead of judging the way they look, act or the situations they find themselves in, then we can understand and show the compassion, grace and love of Jesus and help transform lives!

✞ Music 4 2day by Christy Nockels

After i enjoyed playing “Hosanna” on the drums at our church meeting yesterday, it inspired me to share a few songs by one of my favourite worship leaders.
This next song brings me such comfort. So many people believe there isn’t a God or that God wants to punish them in some way so spend their whole lives running, but he just wants to Love you, so just ‘Be Loved’

Christian Pop 4 2day!
Today’s 2 songs are for the Christian Pop lovers out there! 😀
I have these 2 songs on the youth club playlist that i am responsible for. It’s my responsibility to make sure the children are listening to wholesome music (at least when they are in our care) which is a constant battle as their phones/iPod’s are just full of pollution. So i try and show there is another way by playing great sounding music with a message of love running through them.
As i love playing acoustic guitar i always like the acoustic versions too!
Acoustic Version:
Shadow Of The Beast

Shadow Of The Beast
by Steve Rebus
A tortured soul, wriggling with sin,
So much horror to know where to begin,
The black hands of Satan hold me from within.
Lord of my heart, Father to my soul,
Stop the firey darts, and take control,
Give me a new start and fill this black hole.
You hear my call, from the shadow of the beast,
No giants too tall, no longer a feast,
Your blood saves all; even the least.
The eyes of my heart are now open,
Reading the words you had spoken,
Your light shines brighter through the broken.
My Thoughts 💭
I’m not sure if this is a poem or if it will turn into a song, but I thought I would share it with you anyway, hope you enjoy! 😀

Rest In Piece

I have had this written down for many years, but I have only just found it again when searching through some old folders.
A few of the songs/poems I have on here were written as I was coming out of a very dark time in my life, but I still would like to share them with you as they are still part of my journey.
Rest in Piece
by Steve Rebus
Verse 1 C, Am7, Em, G
As they Wade through the blood of your family,
Bullets pass through you for all to see,
Tears of blood, life long scars remain,
The evil one, is prowling once again,
Chorus Am, Em
Rest in Piece,
Children of war,
Rest in peace,
You don’t have to fear no more,
Verse 2
Lying face down in the mud,
A war never turns out like they say it would,
Trying to send a prayer with your final breath,
While spitting and choking on the stench of death,
Chorus
Middle 8 F, C, G/B Am
Who’s to say who’s wrong,
Who’s to say who’s right?
How much innocence will die tonight?
Verse 3
Is the war over now, are we done?
Or has all the darkness only begun,
What’s the value of a human life?
I guess that changes from side to side.

Time for some wholesome Reggae! 😀
I first heard this song 4 2day when Ben lent me his CD called “Reggae Sunday Service Vol. 5”. My first words were “i love this song but i have only ever heard the R.Kelly version”
Hope you play it loud and enjoy!

Depression
March 29, 2013 0 Comments
Whilst writing “My Testimony” I found this song hiding in my hard drive.
Depression
Written by Steve Rebus
As I wake up I slowly realise,
That I face another day with darkened eyes,
As it hits me I have to refrain,
From the thoughts wishing me dead again!
Pure isolation, I dream of escape,
My hopes and ambitions I’ve had to forsake,
Panic, despair, my hand grips the knife,
I pray for the strength to end this sad life!!
(chorus)
Depression,
Comes like the darkest night,
Depression,
No glimmer of hope, no sign of light.
I feel the torment build deep inside,
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide,
It has to happen now, I need a release,
I hope suicide will finally bring me peace!
(chorus)
As I look back with love in my heart,
My Chains are gone, i have a new start,
The Lord is my refuge, my strength, my home,
The darkness has gone, I’m no longer alone!
© Steve Rebus
📖 Verse of Hope
John 14:1-4
“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.”

Not afraid to die
March 29, 2013 0 Comments
This song came to me as I was with Sarah at another Eric Bibb concert, we were sat very high up in the eaves of Cadogan Hall and I felt a sudden sense of danger. I pictured the whole place collapsing and I was trapped under all of the seats etc.
When we got home I picked up my acoustic guitar and this song (lyrics & chords) just came straight out. I havn’t edited it since and this happened around 2005.
Not afraid to die
Music & Lyrics by Steve Rebus
Verse 1 G, D/F#, A Asus
On that fateful night
In Cadohan Hall
Eric Bibb’s Blues filling wall to wall.
Verse 2
A big explosion
And you were scared
But I was the one trapped beneath the stairs
(Chorus) Dsus, G, D/F#, G, A
Please save yourself, before it’s too late
Please save yourself, but don’t you cry
Because I got the Lord in my heart…..I’m not afraid to die
Verse 3
You let go of my hand
With tears on your face
The look in your eyes, as you left this place
Verse 4
I can feel the heat
Of the flames on my skin
The creak from the roof as it finally caved in
(Chorus)
Please save yourself, before it’s too late
Please save yourself, but don’t you cry
Because I got the Lord in my heart…..I’m not afraid to die
Solo
Verse 5
Remember me
And the life we had
Share your smile and never be sad
(Chorus)
Please save yourself, before it’s too late
Please save yourself, but don’t you cry
Because I got the Lord in my heart…..I’m not afraid to die
When you’ve got the Lord in your heart…..don’t be afraid to die
© Steve Rebus
I am not sure if this is an outpouring of my love for Sarah and how I would die for her, or if its trying to show how much inner peace I feel now I follow Jesus, maybe its both?!
Please comment and let me know your thoughts! 😀
