Jesus Keep Me Near the Cross - Josh and Sarah Snodgrass - with Lyrics

Husband and wife duet! My wife Sarah and I decided to sing this beautiful hymn together. It was a real joy to work on this with her. Please let us know in the comments if you'd like to hear us sing more hymns! (Either way, I will continue to post guitar music). For the longest time I really struggled to sing in tune (it was pretty bad!). Fortunately, God gave me a wife who could sing and so we toured together for several years with her singing and me playing guitar. We toured full time in a travel trailer spending a lot of our life on the road. This was a great adventure when our boys were little but as they started to grow up, we felt like they needed more stability. Sarah and the boys stopped traveling and I started just going out on the weekends and doing concerts. The problem with this was that I lost my singer! After much prayer and some encouragement from others, I decided to make an attempt at learning to sing. I worked hard and did a lot of study on how to overcome my problems as a singer. It's a work in progress but I just wanted to share this as an encouragement for some of you that may feel like you don't have a good voice. You can learn! There are some great voice teachers on YouTube and practice (and some creative problem solving) can help you improve. Besides, singing really isn't about sounding impressive but it's about praising God with a "joyful noise". Sarah and I went full time with our music ministry in 2013. There have been a lot of twists and turns along the way, but we've seen the Lord do some amazing things. We're so thankful to get to serve God with music. Thanks for listening!
