My first worship album, before chlldrens ministry, before Kingdom Kids and before the Spicy Camels.
A few Psalms put to music to be used in Worship or performance.
Now Digitally re-mastered the The recordings and arrangements sound a bit dated to my ears and very cheesy to me, but my mum loved it and still does & I guess that its a good way of memorising the bits of the bible.
I still live with a story told by a good friend just after i did this album. He was then a social worker working in
Liverpool and had the cassette of the album on in his car whilst escorting a young offender.
The young man begged and pleaded with my friend for the cassette. Why , 'you cant like this type of music?' he inquired. 'Your right' said the youth, 'i just want it so i can church it out of the window'.
Well we all had to start somewhere for me it was in a studio under a church, next to the gents in Bolton.
So for my mum here is Refuge & strength.
download for a donation.
Jims job is a songwriter of childrens praise & worship songs. I have decided for the start of this new venture not to charge but am leaving it it for you to decide what these songs are worth to you personally. For some they will be new. for lots of people these songs will take them back to their childhood.
Enjoy the songs, enjoy the memories
God Bless
Jim

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of El Shaddi
I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge
Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you under his wings
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
it will not come near you.
You will only observe with your eyes
if you make the Most High your dwelling—
even the LORD, who is my refuge-
then no harm will befall you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
You will tread upon the lion and the cobra;
"Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him for he acknowledges my name.
With long life will I satisfy him
and show him my salvation."
