Give Me Words For A Song Jim Clark Music page
I bought a guitar in 2004, never played one
before in my life. After learning a couple of chords on the guitar I wanted to
try singing and my wife indicated that she heard a lot of awful, strange sounds
and noises. My musical desire is to make a joyful noise unto the Lord. I
pray that Jesus will make my life useful as I go along, let me not rust away,
give me words for a song. "Farmers And Preachers" is the first song
that I wrote and sang in public. It is a true story about some of my ancestors.
My latest song, written August 5, 2009, is
