The Solid Rock
Lyrics by Steve Baney
Music by Steve Baney
Key: C
Style: Rock (ironic, eh?)
How the song was written:
Based on the 1834 lyrics written by Edward Mote, "My Hope Is Built."
My home was almost destroyed by $15,000 of water damage. We had to move out to live with friends. It took months to repair. This test of my faith prompted me to question whether I truly trust my God. This song is my response.

Thanks John and Yrral. Perhaps a female vocalist could sing it the way you're thinking, John. Dark times of life are so difficult, Yrral. Thank God for his faithfulness.
John says...
Love the groove and the guitar hooks on the verses.
Great affirmation of faith in God.
I'd like to hear the chorus sung with the vocal one octave higher - not sure if that is possible with the range of the song, but it would be really cool to hear the vocal soar on the chorus.
