I am the proud father of two adult children. I have been playing the guitar for various church bands for over 25 years. All of these songs are original and reflect a preference to Christian music with a country rhythm.

Story behind the song
This song looks back at life and admits how circumstances have altered our original life goals. Even though reality may not match our original plans, its good to know that, in His wisdom, God has given us so much more than our original, finite hopes and dreams.
Lyrics
I wanted a lifetime of blessing and peace The cares of this world and its sorrows to cease You gave me Your promise to be with me each day And Your Word to guide me and light up my way You’re more than I wanted (dreamed of) – You’re all that I need I drink of Your goodness as I let You lead This isn’t the way that I had it all planned But I know that I’m blessed when You’re holding my hand I dreamed that the wealth of this world would be mine The favor of many on my life would shine You gave me the riches of Heaven to claim And eternal life through belief in Your name I longed to be healthy and free from all pain That dreams for my lifetime would not be in vain You died for my healing – in body and soul And promised me Heaven as my final goal You’re more than I longed for – You’re all that I need I drink of Your goodness as I let You lead (No) This isn’t the way that I had it all planned Still I know that I’m blessed when You’re holding my hand
