A cover of rest on us with the transition to spring up, which is a song that I wrote. This is for Ransomville FMC so we can be ready for Sunday 😃

The hymn: “And Can It Be” -By Charles Wesley - Public Domain Posting for our church band to learn.

I started to write this song about revival on 1/19/2024 and tweaked it. Then after speaking at my church, Ransomville Free Methodist on 2/4/2024, we did this song. The Chorus is based off of Numbers 21:17... (NIV) Then Israel sang this song: “Spring up, O well! Sing about it,

The prompt for writing worship club was 1 Peter 2:24 NLT. With this as my launching pad, I came up with this in about 2 hours.

This is part of an original song that I co-wrote called Come. The reason it is only partial had to do with feedback at the beginning of the song. Joel Slazyk on Bass, Jodie Neadow backup vocals, Tyler O’Neill on keyboards, Joel Thoms on the kit (first time ever to play out!!) and of course; Lonnie Thoms vocals and guitar. This was at the Rockin’ for Jesus 2023 at Forestview CoG In Niagara Falls, NY. June 17, 2023

This is an original song that I wrote called Holiness. (C) Lonnie Thoms

Played at the “Rockin’ for Jesus” at Forestview CoG in Niagara Falls. This song is a cover of You Shine by Brian Doerksen

I was in a co-write on 2/10/2023 with Samantha Clark and Tanis Lee. Coming out of that three hours, we emailed back and forth and I tossed at them something similar to this. When I got to practice Sunday, I shared the song with our team: Ransom Paid Band. I was the only one with lyrics and chords - these guys figured it all out and we jammed! The ladies slid over and we shared the lyrics. SO, this isn't polished, but raw and from a place of inviting people to come to the Lord.

This was one of those old hymns I used to sing as a kid! Bringing it back at my church; Ransomville Free Methodist!!

Started the video 10 seconds too late. But this is Rick Bonner leading practice with (part of) The Ransom Paid Band. Ransomville Free Methodist Church.

With 4th of July just around the corner, we need to do a song for Church! My wife suggested this one. Ransomville Free Methodist Church, Ransom Paid Band - this is our song!

This hymn has been around for a while and I love to sing it a lot faster than most of the videos I see. 😂😂 Besides, when our church band practices, it helps to have the same key and tempo. 🧐

Doing this cover in Bb. Capo 8 D shapes.

Needed to record this for my band to practice to. But if you are blessed, that’s even better!
