Devotional songs

On this page you will find a number of Rob's devotional songs. Some of these have been created for devotional use and others are of a more reflective style.
Rob says that a good devotional or worship song is quite simply one that helps the listener encounter something of the creater, His truth or His person. This particular genre of song is one of the most difficult to write and usually the most critiqued variety. If it done well the satisfaction for the devotional songwriter is immeasurable

I will call on the name of the Lord

When dark clouds gather and day turns to night

I will remember your name
When the storms of life take over and hope seems lost from sight
Still I’ll remember your name

When surging waters take me, try to drag me down
Bitter winds cut through me, and knock me to the ground

I will call on the name of the Lord who reigns
On the love that saves me from the fears of this world
I will put my trust in the King of love
I will call on the name of the Lord

When sorrow overwhelms me and grief paves my way
I will remember your name

When all self worth has vanished and failure marks my days
Still I'll remember your name

When disappointment seizes me, drives me to my knees
Waves of doubt wash over me and take away my peace

I will call on the name of the Lord who reigns
On the love that saves me from the fears of this world
I will put my trust in the King of love
I will call on the name of the Lord
