Silly songs
There was a point in my life I thought it would be fantastic writing a parody with Weird Al. Written to the tune of “free your mind”. 🎶Free your gut and the rest will follow. I can’t wear tight clothing. They cut me off at the pass. I have a muffin top cause I can’tContinue reading “Silly songs”

Hard Fought Hallelujah
I wasn’t going to do a Testimony Tuesday today. I was going to let the song I posted speak for me. As I’m listening to more Christian music; to find more songs to speak for me, I found Brandon Lake and Jelly Roll singing Hard Fought Hallelujah. This is my new favorite song.
