Your own material!

hey all u song writers out ther (or any1 hus jus lukin at this amazin part of the site!).
basically, i had an idea to start this... cos @ spring harvest, my friend and i wrote a song (which we both love) and i thought 'hey! why not. this wud b a gr8 thing for ppl 2 share songs etc.' so i ended up suggesting this to Rach and here it is! a place for you to share material you've made and see what ppl think!

enjoy!

p.s. i know it's not legally copywrited, but please could you not use any of the material put forward unless you have permission form the artist themself! thanx ...xXx

ok... 2 start off. here's a short song that i wrote over the weekend. it goes like thiz...

Stop the traffik, can't you see
What you're doing to the lives that
They would like to lead?
Why d'you have to be so cruel?
Why can't you just leave them alone?
Take them back to where they're meant to be
...With their family at home.

We want friendship, we want peace.
But you don't give this to us,
So we live with so much grief.
Our lives will be much easier
If we could all just get along.
But making people work as slaves,
Is so terrible and wrong.



if you have any ideas to edit it, plz pm me!

p.s. plz don't blag it okiies! xxx

Thats really good Nicci!

Saved

Chorus (A)

I am saved, because of You Jesus,
I am saved by the mercy of God,
I am saved, because of Your salvation
And I worship at the foot of the cross

Verse 1 (B)

In this place we’ll never be alone
Because you are standing beside me
The love of our God will be shown
By the way You deliver Your messages through me

Verse 2 (C )

I will come and offer up my soul
With love and affection I come to You
Your light shines through the world as a whole
And we come singing praises anew

Bridge/Middle 8 (D)

But what does this mean?
Do I really know,
What a wonderful God You are?
‘Cause today it really shows

Chorus 2 (E)

I am saved, because of You Jesus,
I am saved by the mercy of God,
I am saved, because of Your salvation
And I worship at the foot of the cross
At the foot of the cross,
I am saved by the cross!
