For He Is Wonderful
Music & Lyrics by Jeremy Yew

G                          Em                     Cmaj7              D
Oh praise the Lord for He is wonderful, wonderful
G                                    Em                     Cmaj7              D
Give thanks to the Lord for He is wonderful, wonderful
G                              G7                   Bm
And He makes everything alright,
                                       Em
Even through the darkest night,
                     Cmaj7             D                         G
For He is wonderful, wonderful my Lord

(This is also covered on the Songcraft blog.) 

This is a short little song I wrote recently. It’s meant to be a Christian fellowship kind of song.

It might seem like a very short & simple song, but to be honest, it is rather meaningful to me, cos I’ve recently realised how much the Lord has been blessing & guiding me through my life, and I’m really thankful yet ashamed for it.

Many a times He’s been so gracious to me, but yet I didn’t fully realise it, and took it for granted. I have to say I’m really unworthy of all the bountiful blessings He has bestowed upon me all this while…but yet, His wonderful deeds keep me singing day after day. 

Yes, the Lord is indeed wonderful.

On another note, this song also marks the first time I’m dabbling in multi-track recording, using the Audacity software…which explains the added percussion (egg shaker) and harmonies.

Fun effect, but rather tedious.
