It came to me as I woke one day... The melody and chorus were all there, I just had to flesh it out.  Enjoy!

The song "Jesus Party" by Dave Martin is performed at Grosse Ile Presbyterian Church on Sunday, November 16th, 2014.

Jesus Party by Dave Martin

I'm goin' to the Jesus party!
Goin' to the Jesus party!  Hallelujah!

Once there was a time I felt alone and so afraid
I couldn't see the world He made 
As anything but a place for me to be astray in.
Once I tried to make some sense of the mystery.
I thought I'd find the answers inside me.
I knew there had to be a better way.

When I found The Word I didn't know just what to say.
First I tried to understand it with my brain.
Then I opened my heart and let go my pain.
I felt the breath and it filled me from my feet up to my head.
I couldn't believe the way I felt so freed
And I knew that I was saved!

I'm goin' to the Jesus party!
Goin' to the Jesus party!  Hallelujah!

Oh death, where is your sting?

Are you gonna meet me there? 
Are you gonna meet our Father?
Am I gonna see you there again?
Can you say you know you wanna?
Cause everybody been invited.

Are you gonna meet me there? 
Are you gonna meet our Father?
Am I gonna see you there again?
Can you say you know you wanna?
Cause everybody been invited.

Say you believe, get on the train, 
No matter your past, this ladder's built to last,
Me and all my friends, back together again.
For eternity, my man said he did this for you and me, 
Come on, taste and see, 
Everybody gonna be there man!

Amen

On November 1st, 2014, I played at Bourbon's Brews & Bayou, a great restaurant right here in downtown Wyandotte.  For their Halloween weekend party, I imitated David Bowie's "Aladdin Sane" album cover, and even managed to cover some David Bowie songs.  Check 'em out in the videos here!
