More Strings

Fender Squier SA-105

I bought 2 new (used) guitars! My sister-in-law's Father owns a resale shop and they had an acoustic and an electric for sale.

The acoustic has a beautiful sound, definitely an upgrade for me. (But not quite as pretty as my old one :-)

I think these will definitely benefit and enhance the music ministry at my church.

Gibson Epiphone something?



I don't know how to play electric, but I'm gonna have fun trying. Don't have an amp yet, but...I tested it after church yesterday and it does work. I just need new strings for both of them.







My fingers are so sore from playing for hours yesterday. I just couldn't put it down! lol

Prasso - I will Cast my Cares

Katie(piano) and me(guitar) singing "I will Cast my Cares" at the Ladies Prasso Group. It was recorded with a cell phone, so the quality is not great.



"I will Cast my Cares"  by Stephen Altrogge

Jesus, I'm frail, I'm so very weak
My faithfulness fails, my courage will flee
But You are my rock, my shelter and shade
When I'm burdened down, You'll carry the weight

So I will cast my cares on You

Yes, I will cast my cares on You
I will rest within Your arms
Knowing I am safe from harm
I will cast my cares on You

When I'm overwhelmed and I cannot stand

You hear every cry and You lift my head
I'm desperate for grace and mercy anew
I must have Your strength, Oh I must have You

Forever learning...

Sadly not my guitar,
but I'd love to have it!
I got an acoustic guitar for my birthday a few years ago, and I've gone back and forth with loving it and then letting dust collect on it. Every time I house sit for my aunt and uncle, I always bring my guitar with me and fall in love with it all over again. My fingers are in PAIN from all the playing I've done the last few days.

I have a lot of songs to learn for church. My friend, who just finished college, is now home and can play piano while I'm on guitar. We have a tiny church, so 2 instruments are a real treat....ya, I know...sad, but I'm really excited about it.

Current Getty songs I'm learning for church...
    "Power of the Cross" - Keith & Kristyn Getty
    "Behold the Lamb" - Keith & Kristyn Getty
    "All around the world" - Keith & Kristyn Getty

Just for fun...
    "Dream a little Dream of Me" - Mama Cass
    "My Hands are Shaking" - Sondre Lerche
    "Yours to Hold" - Skillet
