I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I’m onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

A higher plane than I…
Life keeps trans-versing time, the things lost,the things to be found, and the moment we live in , Don't set out the dance, or decide not to go. Where ever you are be there.
AT THE RISK OF BEING ALL WET> Out on the perilous deep
Where danger silently creeps
And storm so violently sweep
You're drifting too far from the shore.
Chorus
Drifting too far from the shore
You're drifting too…
IF THE SPIRIT MOVE YOU........... Oh, my Lord done just what he said
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
He healed the sick and he raised the dead
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
Shine on, let it…

You have created a very thought provoking song. Well done Terry!
People have hidden behind religion to do unquestionable things for centuries, and the other guy is always the vilian.

Years ago, when I had just started writing songs, I read a novel by Terry Pratchett (Equal Rites) that inspired me to write a song which I imagined as a soundtrack for a scene from the book where Grandma Weatherwax was riding on a broom stick…
OCCUPY 0112
It's a highland I call my land
It's an island in the sun
No matter how you measure it
It's always number one
If I had a house to occupy
I'd occupy my wish
But to have a house to occupy
I must defy the rich
We buy the…

The decending line is about the coolest musical concept. Ear candy,and it can be Major or minor scale.Love my effects,but there's no substitution for plain old technique.
My "banjo-centric" arrangement of this old minstrel show tune. I recorded it for backing tracks for my live set. I kind of wanted a fiddle solo, but I don't play fiddle. So in the middle there's a little "fiddle synthesizer" - just a couple of…
My arrangement of an American traditional tune with tons of variations on title, lyrics and tune. I went for a little delta feel with some light slide on the guitar, and harmonica along with the banjo... definitely strange but I think it works.

Brilliant. And the folks who don't mind failing... seem to be the folks who succeed in the stuff that matters. I love this one.
