This song is a co-write with a young friend and songwriter, Jimmy Robeson. This song is dedicated to my daughters Becky & Brittney. The song was written at the beginning of a new dream and was recorded at the end of that dream.  Life brings disappointments as well as great blessings, but through it all Jesus is committed to finishing what He starts in us.  Wherever you are in that journey, Jesus is committed to you. “Even though you can’t always see what’s ahead, He’s the finisher of all He’s started”.

You who are known by the holes in Your hands
Endured such hostility
You came as one of us yet You died for us
Love given in humility
In our brokenness we see
The joy in Your eyes as You despised shame
Now we have the freedom to call on Your name

Chorus
Help us Jesus author of our faith
As we follow will You be our strength
Lord You know we can’t see what’s ahead
But You’re the finisher of all You’ve started
       
Your feet were nailed to a tree that You made
Your journey to us now complete
It is finished and done now God’s only son
Is risen is Glory
In our brokenness we see
The joy in Your eyes as in heaven You reign
Now we have the freedom to call on Your name
