Not too much

Well, this is a first- a video blog entry. I wanted to share this song that I wrote a few months ago called not too much.
Here are the lyrics.

Not too much
By Anna Bailey

Come to me, Come to Me, You are Weary
I will give you rest
Come to me, Come to Me, You are Weary
I will give you rest

What about my rebellious ways
Look what I’ve become
Many days I’ve gone astray
I feel I’m overcome………
But it’s not too much, It’s not too much for HIM

Be at rest, Be at rest, Oh my soul
For the Lord is Good
Be at rest, Be at rest, Oh my soul
For the Lord is Good

But what about my selfishness
And my ugly Pride
I can’t hide my life’s distress
And I’m growing tired
But it’s not too much, It’s not too much for HIM

Let's be encouraged that there is nothing that we do, say, or think that God cannot forgive and make new!

That is so beautiful Anna! I love the melody and the words really ministered to me today:) Thank you!

ps-I dig the fishing pole on the couch! Both unexpected and whimsical:)

Thank you for sharing! Great idea to put a video up rather than just the words - it is nice to hear it all together.

Nice job, Anna! It's refreshing to see that, not only are you an incredible mom to your four kiddos, you're also a gifted songwriter who is passionate about seeking God's will for your life. Impressive! :)

Anna,
That was beautiful....the words were such a good reminder for me right now. You have an amazing talent from God and I am so happy that you share it. Sometimes it seems that the problems I have in life do seem too big for God, but it is only through Him that I can get through them....thank you for this wonderful song!
