Some of my songs are global warming or food security songs. A Food security song is FARM IN tHE CITY (see above page - the words are in the blog posts at above page) The Internet site http://farmradio.org/english/radio-scripts/53-6script_en.asp gives us information about the large quantity of food grown in Cuban cities, where most people live.
Havana is the capital city of Cuba, leading commercial centre and major port of Cuba. About two million people live there. The government encourages people to use all available spaces to grow food. Today there are over 5,000 community gardens and 2,000 small farms in and around Havana. The previous system of growing food in the country and transporting it to the cities required refrigeration, transportation, storage and a distribution system. All this required a lot of energy — especially petroleum and electricity. By growing food in the city Cuba has greatly reduced its dependence on expensive petroleum.

The words for "Tree Dress the Earth" are (they must be repeated four times):
Tree Dress the Earth by Swayseeker
Change our ways
Save the earth
Plant a tree
Give new birth
Birth to hope
Better than
Hopeless ways
With no plan

Grow more plants
Use less power
Reduce the heat
Prevent the hour
The hour that looms
Unless we say
We'll try to help
The earth today

END (note that the words above should be gone through four times to match the tune)

Swayseeker: Free Gospel Music for Churches plus my favourite drum beat below

There are many free legal downloads for churches to sing at http://www.4praise.com/
For my free Gospel song "The weeds and wheat" you can go to http://www.4praise.com/ Click on "Songs", then click on "Most Recent Songs" then choose "The weeds and wheat"

I am a Gospel drummer. Here is information on one of my favourite drum beats: After having played gospel music at churches for a while I discovered a beat I seldom hear, but suits many gospel tunes. When I hear gospel music I wish drummers would play it (maybe some do) so I can groove along. It goes (for a four beat bar) bass drum (foot pedal) on beats one and two, and four and two of the next bar (1,2,4,6 if you are counting 8 beats) and then the hi hat closes at beats 1 of first bar and 2 of the second bar (1 and 6 for 8 beats). If you are playing the hi hat with a stick this gives a really good beat. This would also be good for coordination practice for non drummers. It really suits gospel such as "Waiting on the Lord" and I think church goers will love it - perhaps clap along as many love to do.Regards

If you like, comment in general, or say what song of mine you like the most, or say what type of music you like. If you like a popular type of music that many will want I might compose something along those lines.
