This is a song that I wrote during a time in my life in which I felt all alone. However, it seemed that around every bend in my life, I found God already waiting for me.
Artist picture
Solo Artist - Singer / Songwriter - Contemporary Christian
I am a musician (singer / songwriter) that has had many influences. As a young man I listened and was influenced by Journey, Kansas, Styx, Boston, Led Zepplin, Billy Joel, Elton John, The Eagles, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, and many others. As I grew older and became more involved with my church, I gravitated toward contemporary Christian artists such as Wayne Watson, Steven Curtis Chapman, Michael W. Smith, Michael English, Ray Boltz, Casting Crowns, Philips Craig & Dean, and others. Recently I have returned to my first love - Contemporary Christian Music. It is my prayer that God will open doors within this ministry and hopefully, in the future, I will be able to record and share some of the great music that God has given me. In January of 2007 I had the priviledge of Recording my first EP of original songs with The Tyler Music Group in Nashville Tnn. This has been a wonderful experience to record and work with some of the best musicians in the world. I was also fortunate and blessed to have been associated with my producer, William Smith, that believed in my songs and took a chance on a new unsigned artist. I am married to my beautiful wife, and we live in Anniston, AL. I have a daughter, Bethany that is the joy of my life. Bethany is a Graduate of Jacksonville State University, with a major in Elementary Education - She has recently taken a job at Alexandria Elementary School as a Third Grade Teacher - Bethany loves, children and will be a great teacher.

Story behind the song
I was needing another song for my new album. I already had a song ready to record, but for some reason did not feel lead to put this song on the record. We were scheduled to go the studio and begin recording within 3 days and I was starting to think that I would be one song short. I sit down at the piano one night and began noodling around and this song came out. The past few months had been difficult for me - I was unemployed, and had experienced the disapointments of missing out on job opporunities as well as feeling that I could not pay my bills. I knew that God had a plan for my life and intended to use my music in some way, but I just did not know how. However, God did give me gentle nudges to let me know that He was still there, and it seemed when I did not know what tomorrow held, when I would round the next bend or reach tomorrow, I would find that God was waiting there for me. I believe that God has plans for this song, because the lyrics and melody just kind of flowed real quickly. I hope that it ministers to someone that might be going through some of the same things that I have.
Lyrics
He Knows Words and Music by Rickey Wright This is a rocking, up tempo song 1st Verse This Journey's been long so far And it's left me weary Life's highway is littered with The holes of broken dreams This road's taken a turn or two And at times I've lost my way But when I round each bend I find He's waiting for me Chorus Because He know's every step I take He know's each mistake I make He's waiting in tomorrow Oh yes He's waiting there for me Because He knows what my eyes can't see He know's, He know's what's best for me He's waiting in tomorrow Oh yes, He's waiting there for me Because He know's, oh yes, He knows 2nd Verse I'm learning to trust you more Along life's highway I'm learning to walk by faith When human eyes can't see Bridge If in my imperfections I stumble in the dark He extends a hand of mercy To heal a broken heart Chorus Because He know's every step I take He know's each mistake I make He's waiting in tomorrow Oh yes He's waiting there for me Because He knows what my eyes can't see He know's, He know's what's best for me He's waiting in tomorrow Oh yes, He's waiting there for me Because He know's, oh yes, He knows Repeat Chorus - Repeat tag line
