T.H.I.N.K. Carefully Before You Speak.
An upbeat country swing song, music by me (Ken Sturgeon), lyrics by Lucy Wall, and featuring Samantha Minor. It’s about ‘Taming the Tongue’. Before we speak to anyone we should stop and T.H.I.N.K. carefully. Is it true, helpful, inspiring, necessary, and kind? If not most, or all of these, then perhaps we should not be speaking at all. A formula to ensure our words are always considerate and show respect.
If God Knows Everything, Why Do I Need To Pray?
A classic Texas-Style Blues song. Deals with an question many experienced Christians find difficult to answer. Lyrics and music by Ken Sturgeon, featuring lead vocals by Eric Castiglia.
My Audience of One.
An acoustic pop ballad, music by me (Ken Sturgeon), lyrics and lead vocal by Lucy Wall. Jesus doesn’t demand perfection from me, all He asks is that I do my best, and commit my efforts to Him for His glory. He will do the rest.
‘Instead of fearing the judgement of others and myself, I perform to Jesus alone, My Audience of One’.
The Little You Have.
Wonderful lyrics by Lucy Wall. A slow country/gospel song, featuring piano, some orchestral parts, drums, and bass. The little you think you have, if you use it as a gift from God, He will do great things with it. And you will get your reward in Heaven.. Lyrics by Lucy Wall, music and production by Ken Sturgeon, and lead vocals by Ros Leslie.
