About
I am a servant of God, retired from the working world but working full time writing and producing music to spread the Gospel through song. Messages given me to pass on to God's people and those that should be God's people, messages of warning, of love and hope, of encouragement in these the last days of a corrupt and dying world. I am a songwriter that does not perform what he writes, I look for an artist that sings better than they write, that look for new material to sing. I have written over 3000 songs, most of which are Gospel in a number of style and tempos. Country, Southern and bluegrass being the main flavor. I have self-produced a number of recordings over the years which got a fair amount of airplay, a # one song, and an SHAI award. I boast only in the fact that the Lord has trusted me enough to give me His songs to write. If you are an artist interested in hearing some of the songs He has given me, for possible recording, email me (ecadams@xplornet.ca) and I will give you a link to listen. I don't have a personal website or a social site but I do have several storage sites for my songs of different genres, which I give to those interested enough to make personal contact. I also have a number of pages on CD Baby where people can hear, purchase CDs or downloads. They can also purchase CDs by mail directly from me.

I WASN’T THERE.
I didn’t get to touch the hem of His garment
But I was surely touched by His rugged cross
I received just enough of His precious blood
To keep me eternally from being lost
CHORUS
No I wasn’t there to see Him crucified
No I didn’t hear as His enemies cried
Give us Barabbas and let him go free
But crucify that Jesus up on Calvary
--------------------------------------------------
I didn’t get to hear His sermon on the mount
Nor did I get to see Him rise from the grave
But I received by faith what He did for me
And through Him from all sin I am now saved
REPEAT CHORUS
SECOND CHORUS
No I wasn’t there to see Him as He died
I didn’t drive that spear into His precious side
I never swung that whip that cut into His flesh
But still I was as guilty as all of the rest
TAG: No I wasn’t there but still I was guilty
