Sunday Turns
Worship. It's not just for Sunday morning anymore. I've often wrestled with song selection for my next record... Should I write corporate worship songs for Sunday morning because I'm a worship leader... Or should I write personal worship songs for every day because I'm a worshipper? I think the answer is YES. A line in one of these songs has inspired me to write a record called “Sunday Turns”… Here are some of the songs I’ve written to this point. I’d love some feedback. Most of these are new since arriving in Georgia but I will likely want to revamp a couple of oldies. *These demos were recorded…one take, one mic, one guitar and one voice...into our church’s sound board.

Some of the most heart-felt songs are songs of worship for what God has done for us. One day I was thinking about how dependant my worship had become on the "what have you don't for me lately" condition I place on my worship. God is the Centerpiece of all creation... He IS, therefore He deserves to be worshipped. Not because He DOES.
LYRICS
Had you never called my name / You would still be worthy of all praise / If the stars were never made / You would still be worthy for who You are / (And You are)… /// The Centerpiece of all creation / Uncreated crowned in light / The Centerpiece of all creation / All consuming, glorified / You are glorified /// (You are) Beautiful, wonderful, Merciful - yes you are

I sung this song in church so many times, and even hummed it to myself during my daily routine and never knew it was a Chad Nichols original! Awesome.
Ahhhh. . .my song. The first time I heard this song my arms opened wide, my eyes closed against the tears streaming down my face, and my heart opened up and sang aloud.
I sooooo didn't know you wrote this song...awesomeness!
