21st Century Worship - Worship and Praise from Today's heart to eternity's God
21st Century Worship is the name I use for pretty much all my worship music endeavors. The band is not so much a band yet - it's me. And I have some people who play with me, for the most part my worship team at the church where I lead worship. 21st Century Worship is about taking the timeless truth of the glory of God and worship of Him and bringing it into a place that fits today's world - while not giving up anything of the music's timelessness and truth.

Story behind the song
This songs come from two seperate ideas, brought together. The original concept for "It Is My Prayer" was just a loose idea of trying to put to music a few of the basic things I wanted to say in a prayer; what I wanted to say to God. Then the idea of a song from the Parable in Matthew 13 somehow got tied into the other and - this is the result.
Lyrics
(verse one) Sometimes I don’t understand – the Word You give to me Your truth is stolen from my heart Sometimes I don’t take a stand – my walk is slow and weak And the smallest persecution stops me in my tracks. Don’t let my heart be hard, make it soft toward You. Don’t let my faith be weak, make me bold for you. (chorus one) It is my prayer That the seed you plant in me Won’t be trampled by the feet Or be chocked out by the weeds Or shrivel from the heat (chorus two) It is my prayer To hear and understand To know and comprehend To see what you have planned To go where You would send It is my prayer (verse two) Sometimes I believe – every letter of Your Word But to act on it, I just can’t find the time Sometimes the gifts that you give, only make me love You less Why You waste Your grace on the likes of me is a mystery Don’t make my life so full, there’s no room for you Make my heart and my life - be abundant in good fruit (repeat chorus one only) (bridge – repeat and build) It is my prayer I will hear your Word, I will bear good fruit I will love Your words, I will know your truth (repeat chorus one and chorus two) (ending) It is my prayer. It is my prayer. It is my prayer.
