about

“You Make Beautiful” was written out of the desire to encourage people that no matter what has happened in their lives – disappointments, fears, failures, heartaches, struggles – God can still make something beautiful out of them all. I pray that it ministers to you as much as it ministers to me. God’s love for us far surpasses who we are or what we have done. He specializes in turning our hopeless situations around when we completely surrender all our baggage to Him. The story of the little boy who gave his two fishes and fives loaves of bread to Jesus particularly resonates with me. I have seen it time and time again when all I had was a word from God and some faith but nothing substantial in the physical. I have often watched as I put my trust in God and have taken little steps of faith how God has blessed my little and turned it into something bountiful.

I’m forever thankful for my church family and CitiPraise, the worship team of The CityLight Church for giving me a nurturing environment to continue to grow as a music minister.

All proceeds go to the CityLight Life Development Center.

lyrics

Lyrics:

You quench my thirsty soul
Your presence makes me whole
All you have is mine
In your grace divine

You change my crippling fears
To hope and faith that dares
Now all my doubts dissolve
Turning into love

I'm so glad a God like you
Loves me the way You do
Through all the things I do
You choose to walk with me
And oh, that makes me sing

My life you make beautiful
I give it over to you
Ohhh, ohhh
My little you turn into bountiful
All I have is from you
Ohhh, ohhh

You mend the broken
Set captives free
You heal the sick
the blind can now see
Ohh ohh
There's nothing too big
For you my God

Your word is sure
I rest secure
I stand my ground
Through every storm
Nothing I face will ever take me away from you

I'm so glad a God like you
Loves me the way You do
Through all the things I do
You choose to walk with me
And oh, that makes me sing

My life you make beautiful
I give it over to you
Ohhh, ohhh
My little you turn into bountiful
All I have is from you
Ohhh, ohhh

Holy Holy God
You are so wonderful
So wonderful
You Are

Holy Holy God
You make my heart
So beautiful
So beautiful
You are

released November 7, 2016
Sometime this year, I had an urge in my heart to release a sound from God’s heart that will inspire people towards His love. My dear husband, Gregory, encouraged me to write the song but I really didn’t get to working hard on it until my music mentors, Stacy Egbo and Dee Jones lovingly gave me a deadline to release the song. It then dawned on me that God wanted to do something bigger than I had thought because they all really believed that I could do it. Thanks for believing in me! Thanks to Olujr Photography for the creative photo shoot and Limoux Designs for the beautiful album art. Special thanks to Emery, my producer who took this project on and made it happen in record time. You took it in its rawest form and wove words and music beautifully together that reflect the heart of this song through your genius skills.
