Songs of Inspiration and Hope

This book has been a dream of my father from 1999 when he made Jesus Christ his personal Lord and Savior.The content of this book is based on songs and poems that he was inspired to write as he sought the Lord on a daily basis. The book is divided into three (3) sections which gives glimpses of Henry Elijah Clarke under different headings:-Part 1 ? Henry the Writer and Singer-Part 2 ? Henry the Farmer-Part 3 - Henry the PoetThe first song in Part 1 Christ Solid Love was written in commemoration of the opening of a new Church in Mineral Heights May Pen and Clarendon. This was the beginning of what became his writing and singing career.Songs such as Bound for the City with Cloudless Skies My Empty World Lord Go before Us O What Pleasure Divine all expressed my fathers deep desire to be with His Lord in Heaven.The song My Saviors Voice gives us the assurance that we have a Savior in Heaven who paid the price for our sins. He did this when he sealed the deal on Calvary by his death on the Old Rugged Cross.My Dad was a farmer by profession. He had what we call in Jamaica a green thumb. Everything he plants germinates and grows. He knew how to make the best use of every little space in his yard.The songs in Part 2 were written to commemorate my fathers achievements as he received trophies and prizes for the best back yard in his community on a number of occasions. In Part 3 his debut poem was Roadblock with the Roaring Lion and is based on I Peter 5:8. He was very much aware that this roadblock with the devil was one every Christian must experience in their daily walk with the Lord. He ended this discourse with the roaring lion on a note of triumph when he wrote: A DELIVERANCE TIME NOW DEFEATED LION MI NO TELL YU LONG TIME SAY IT A COME FROM ZION? It is the writers intention that these songs and poems will bring inspiration and hope to all.
