So Right

Brand spanking new song written with Stephanie White. We actually got the idea in the middle of a very hurried rehearsal before a worship service. I recorded the snippet on my phone and then dug it up this week…everything about God is just so right…so perfect…just “yes.”

Everything About You
Ben Ward/Stephanie White

I want to sing to You when it’s cold outside
I want to sing to You in the darkest night
I want to sing to You when I’m full of fight
I want to sing to You in the morning light
‘Cause everything about You is so right

CHORUS 1
Full of mercy
Full of kindness
So beautiful
So wonderful

I want to sing to You from the highest heights
I want to sing to You when I’m out of sight
I want to sing to You when the way is tight
I want to sing to You, You’re my delight
‘Cause everything about You is so right

CHORUS 1

I want to sing to You when I don’t understand
I want to sing to You when I don’t see Your hand
I want to sing to You more than I can stand
I want to sing to You in the grander plan
You were here before time began

CHORUS 2
Full of power
Full of wisdom
So glorious
So marvelous

CHORUS 1

New Song – Sound of Your Voice

New song about hearing the voice of the Holy Spirit. It was inspired by a portion of a blog by Jonathan Martin (amazing writer and speaker):

When the familiar voice comes, it is marked by tenderness — there is something sweet about it, and yet almost something that breaks my heart too, in all the ways that pure love does.

Loved being joined by these awesome people:
Stephanie White – vocals
Sara Ciotti – vocals
Pete Coco – bass
Edgar Meeks – drums
Shaun Stols – audio

Sound of Your Voice
Written by Ben Ward

What’s the sound of Your voice
Deep inside my spirit?
Beautiful, powerful
Should I feel it?
What’s the sound of Your voice
In the deepest part of me?
Like the wind, like the rain
Is it something I can see?

CHORUS
Oh, speak to me
Oh, all my longing
Oh, nothing I want more
Oh, than the sound of Your voice

What’s the sound of Your voice
In my hidden places?
Tenderness, bold finesse
Should I taste it?
What’s the sound of Your voice
On the surface of my soul?
Will it terrify, make me mad
Or give a hand to hold?

CHORUS

Oh You break my heart
With every syllable
Oh You make Your mark on me
In me, through me
Resounding, singing

CHORUS

Best Christmas Song You’ve Never Heard

My grandparents, Tommie and Margaret Spurlock, met at a Sacred Harp Singing. I found this amazing Sacred Harp Christmas song, “Christmas Anthem,” and I’m so excited to sing it for you today with my friends Stephanie White and Sara Ciotti!

Download Here.

225 Christmas Anthem
Written by James Denson, 1844

Oh, how charming
Are the radiant bands of music!
Flying in the air.

The church triumphant gives the tone
While they surround the holy throne,
In glory, with celestial arts,
Angelic armies tune their harps,
And raptured seraphs play their parts:
Strike their notes at our Redeemer’s birth.
