It's time for another Electric Guitar music video! Back in May, I began teasing a new song I was working on for electric guitar. Now it's finally available as a music video right here on YouTube.

This is a song I wrote years ago as a Contemporary Christian song. Over the years, I never really got to perform it, but it has continued to linger in my mind. I sent myself a "Poor Man's Copyright" when I first wrote it and I still remembered the words and tune to the chorus, but the verses have escaped me.

As such, I recorded this new version of the song with the chorus (1st part of the song) in tact and simply made up the verses based on a melody I kept hearing in my head that seemed to fit nicely with the chorus. The verses begin when you first see my Stratocaster playing a simple melody.

As you listen to the chorus, the lyrics you should be singing to yourself in the same melody are as follows:

"Let me lean...on you, Jesus.
Let your love shine down full and free.
And when my soul cries out,
And there's a shadow of doubt,
Oh, Lord...Jesus, let me lean on thee."

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. Here's hoping you learn something new that will help you along your journey toward guitar greatness!
