Music has always been a special joy to me. While still a child I enjoyed classical guitar and piano lessons. While growing up I had opportunity to play for our church youth group. More recently I have begun to write songs. They vary widely in style and are not confined to any one genre. My goal is to please the One who is the song-giver; to honour Him in all I write and play. It is my sincere desire that the Lord uses the music I write to draw people closer to Himself. Wherever you are at in relationship to God, may this music touch your heart and be a blessing to you.

Story behind the song
In hard circumstances and troubled times, one may question God about the situation, "Why me?" However, focusing on the dependability and steadfastness of God (i.e. no matter what happens) can turn things around; "God, why have you chosen me to save?"
Lyrics
Chorus Why me, O my Saviour? Why have You chosen me? Out of all creation You offer me Your salvation Why me, O my Saviour? Why have You chosen me? Verse 1 Disdain and scorn were Matthew’s fate You called, he came and did not wait. You came to the poor and friendless You’ve rescued me from my distress Verse 2 You made clean ten leprous men Only one returned to thank You then May I be sure to give You praise And thank You all my days. Verse 3 You told one of living water With her whole town she shared Your offer May I, too, a good witness be Telling what You have done for me Bridge To me God has shown wondrous grace Forever grateful I will be That Jesus Christ in His great love For His own has redeemed even me.
