This one's for my mama.

For "my people." Pianist: Heaven Alexander (a very patient friend that waited an hour for my youngest to fall asleep so that we could do this somewhat uninterrupted).

This was not a largely rehearsed song and not even expected to be video recorded by sweet Caitlin on the left, but Heaven (middle) and I threw her into it anyway! Heaven loves this song and really wanted to try it out with the three of us. This girl comes over to play ANYTHING for me. How could I say, "no" to my sweet and faithful friend? I recorded her playing it on the piano first so she could focus on her beautiful vocals. I was so happy to be able to sing with Heaven this time!!! My only other comment to this as I watched it was, wow, we all cannot sit still when there is music playing! HA!

This has been one of my absolute favorite songs since I was a wee little lassie. My mom used to blare The Gaither Vocal Band in our house growing up. Mark Lowry's lyrics are so simple, yet profound. It moves me EVERY TIME I hear it even 20+ years later. Heaven, my talented pianist friend, blew me away with this one!! I don't know how we pull these off in the midst of the circus that's always running at my home, but we did once again! I am soooo thankful for her!!

This was our first time ever singing together. Actually, it was the first time we ever got our families together. I LOVE to sing and when I found out shortly after meeting Melissa that they used to sing at Northland, Discovery, and other churches in Orlando, I was determined to find an opportunity to sing with them. So, after we had all shared a meal together, and the guys had gotten to know each other I was like, “soooo, do you guys wanna sing together??” Poor Melissa was barely recovered from a major bronchial infection, but obliged anyway. Jake went into his ollllld archives on his tablet, found this one, and played the piano (AND sang) incredibly. I was in my glory. In typical Courtney fashion, I pulled the camera out and started recording after we had sung a couple songs together. I didn’t want to forget such a memorable moment. I had found my people whether they liked it or not and I was soooo grateful. Thank you to Melissa’s mom, Lisa who was behind the scenes helping to set my phone up so you could actually see us all. Thanks to Ralph, for patiently waiting for us on the couch. I know this is not your thing, but you knew I needed it. You are the best. And thank you, Jake and Melissa for helping to fill in one of the biggest holes I had since moving down to FL. You have been such a blessing to me! I am looking forward to seeing how God uses us in the future.

Rescue by Lauren Daigle cover for my family who was affected by the devestating Camp Fire in Paradise, CA.

We were back visiting NY and I was able to get together with Heaven to record something at a friends house! Just like the old days, we didn't get to spend much time preparing, but our hearts to produce music that has the power to change lives was still there. We were just happy to be together again in our element despite loud TV's and children chattering in the background. We don't wait for perfect. We seize whatever moment we can. Our prayer, like every time is that God uses us to soften hearts to Jesus. Like the lyrics say, we will shout his name from the mountains, in the streets, in the darkness, over every enemy, and for our families (Heaven is due in October with her first baby!) Original song sung by the very gifted Charity Gayle can be found here: https://youtu.be/PcmqSfr1ENY

https://www.simplycampbell.com/post/faithful-notes-overcoming-to-sing-for-jesus This song was originally written by Ed Cash, Ben Fielding, Jason Ingram, Brian Johnson and Jenn Johnson. Part of it was re-written by Courtney Campbell and her trusty friend, the Holy Spirit, the day before she was scheduled to lead out on it at her home church, Discovery Alafaya in Orlando, Florida. Other worship leaders and musicians on stage are (left to right) the amazingly gifted Dale Daniel, Alisha Aldona, and Rocky Barra. The incredible band members are Greg Steffey on electric, Moises Vargas on bass, Ana Stachewicz on drums, and Steven Mauvais on keys. All glory belongs to God. May this be used to draw people closer to Jesus. Video was recorded on an iphone14 pro with no light or sound enhancements added.
