I'm EXCITED and proud to share a song I wrote for my daughter Mia and I to sing this coming Sunday at GIPC. Listen to how this almost-11-year-old member of the Michigan Opera Theater Children's Chorus has grown vocally and enjoy this fun song with a message!  Listen and purchase this track above.
Ask 
Words and Music by Dave Martin
Are you there God? 
It’s me again, you see, I could really use a friend
To talk to and maybe help me understand.
Just what is going on today?
So many of us could really use some faith.
And a reminder of how we were all born with your grace.
If I ask will you answer?
If I search will you show? 
When I knock will you let me in?
Oh please won't you open the door?

Are you there, God?  
I’m still not sure how you allow suffering, the sick and the poor,
Maybe it’s something I’ll never understand.
But I’m told the gift you’ve sent for us,
How we’ve all been given your grace and your trust,
And all that you’ve asked of me is to give away all of my love.
If I ask will you answer?
If I search will you show? 
When I knock will you let me in?
Oh please won't you open the door?
I’d like to know:
Why isn’t pink in the rainbow? 
Has my life been planned?
Do we ever make you sad? 
Will I see grandpa again? 
What is it like in heaven? 
Why can’t my dog eat chocolate?
When I pray do you really hear?
Can I get a pony for christmas?   
It’s on my list every year!
Good question… 

If I ask will you answer?
If I search will you show? 
When I knock will you let me in?
Oh please won't you open the door?
