I was tagged on Facebook with this photo yesterday…Not sure why?! Lol. 😀 Anyone else out there who can relate?
Calm Like A Bomb!
My lovely wife Sarah has just cooked and tried out the “Chick Pea, Potato & Spinach salad” (with Chilli Turbo) for RNIB’s magazine diabetic recipe section. They wanted me to take the photos for the magazine. They didn’t use this particular photo (my fave) as they didn’t like my sick wooden guitar spoon! It tasted great and i’d definitely have it again, but was almost too spicy as it nearly blew my head off! I would rename it “Calm like a bomb”!!! 😀
My Fantastic Birthday Cake! :)
Today is my birthday, and my lovely wife Sarah made me a fantastic coconut & banana cake with an amazing acoustic guitar top! 🙂
Praise To The Sound Of Strings
Psalm 92:1-4 (VOICE)
How good it is to give thanks to the Eternal and to praise Your name with song, O Most High; To speak of Your unfailing love in the morning and rehearse Your faithfulness as night begins to fall.
How good it is to praise to the sound of strings—lute and harp—the stirring melodies of the lyre. Because You, O Eternal One, thrill me with the things You have done, I will sing with joy in light of Your deeds.
Not afraid to die
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

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! 😀
