:: upward hill :: tunes and tracks ::

Most of these trax (mp3 format) are nearly-finished versions of the songs on the upcoming Upward Hill 2009 CD.

Dave's moving his family to Europe in May 2009 to start a ministry in Hungary, and so...(big sigh...) this spring will be your last chance to see Dave P., Leo Bud, Matt, and Steve - - Upward Hill. Don't miss our sets at Oasis Coffee House in Parkville on Friday night, 2/20/09, and definitely don't miss Upward Hill's CD release concert at Covenant Chapel in Leawood (133rd & Kenneth Road) on Sunday night, February 22.

Some instrumental tracks were captured with an STA DAC2000 digital recorder in the Cov Chap Youth Room. Overdubs at Chromatic Sound North (Bud's studio), and in Dave's living room. Drums and some guitars recorded at Glass Jar, Abilene, Texas.

Want	I want you; I want you. It's what my heart was made to do.

Surrender	I surrender. I surrender to you. I surrender my life. Your promises - they satisfy.
Slow	Slow me down. I want to be still before you. Slow me down. Still me.
Psalm37:4	You are my God and I will love you forever. I want to go hard after this happiness I'm after.
Joy	So I dig deep searching for treasure - The treasure you have for me.
Love	Love is a gift to all who will receive. Lord you get the glory. You gave me my belief.
Word	Your word is my daily delight. I think on it day and night.
Glorify	I want to display your love like a piece of art. and show you off for who you are.
Suffering	And all who live for you will go through suffering But won't compare to the glory of eternity.
Psalm142	I cry aloud for mercy to the Lord I cry out O Lord you are my refuge.
