Song Story:
The familiar story:  I was going through my usual morning routine, brushing teeth, feeding cats, etc and praying... when I suddenly realized there was a melody in my head.  I examined it - it didn't seem familiar (as in, that someone else wrote it!). I went downstairs to my recording studio to capture the shuffle melody quickly before I forgot it. 
            But instead of returning to my everyday work, I finished the song 1 hour later (2 music tracks). Went to scheduled Professional Studio #2 session. Recorded all vocals. Claxton Wilson added live drums & a draft bass, 
& the song was on the World Wide Web at 1 AM, 18 hours later. It's God's Music! 
Dedicated to our Lord,

LYRICS

1
It has to be all of You,  my LORD.  It        (my focus in my Life)
has to be all of You.   I
    give You my life.  Help me live my life the
    Way that You want me to.

2
It has to be all of You,  my LORD.  It        (my focus in my Life)
has to be all of You.   I
    give You my mouth.  Help me talk with Love, the
    way that You want me to.

3
It  has to be all of You,  my LORD.  It        (my focus in my Life)
has to be all of You.   I
    give you my HANDS.  Help me serve You, God, the
    Way that You want me to.

4
It has to be all of You,  my LORD.  It        (my focus in my Life)
has to be all of You.   I
    give You my FEET.  I follow Your Lead, the
    Way that You want me to.

5
It has to be all of  **ME**,  my LORD.  It        (I fully SURRENDER my Life.)
has to be all of ME.   I
    give You my Life.  Help me live my life the
    Way that You want me too.        > Matthew 6:24, 33.
======================================================

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
Matthew 6:24 and 33;  also told in Luke 16.
Jesus is speaking:
 “No one can serve two masters.
For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other.
You cannot serve both God and money.
Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, 
and live righteously,
and He will give you everything you need.”
         - or, as the New King James words it:
“...and all these things shall be added to you.”

GET EVEN WITH SATAN Song

Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:   
I think the story behind this song is FUNNY.  And it's by God's grace that I do, instead of getting all annoyed or fearful about “wasting time”.  

This song was completed in less than 24 hours (basic music tracks also). 
1. At the church sanctuary, I was praying during the afternoon before choir practice, and the concept came to mind (see final paragraphs for history).

2.   That night, I played with loops in my studio program and came up with all the tracks for what is Part 1 of this song. I liked it so much that I sent it to my producer at Studio 2 to give him a laugh... He's gifted with jazz, but this is NOT my usual style.  So it's another evidence of the Holy Spirit's Creative inspiration!

3. The next morning, I awoke thinking, “Well, if I'm going to write a song about getting even with Satan, I'd better be extra careful  to watch for temptations  because he's gonna want to get even back!  AND HENCE  I  re-worded my original ideas to put this BRIDGE in.
-----
Very first things I found when I went to my computer: The internet wouldn't work, a worse link than usual (but God helped of course). 
AND - a flash drive FULL of files from my Studio 1 that I was supposed to take to Studio 2 over an hour from my home was not working... still isn't as I write this. But hey... God's work. I'll let Him help me figure it out:)

Song Story:  THE  LYRICS:   
During the previous week, some mistakes I'd made were making me very fearful. I even called some of my prayer partners and confessed, with prayer requests. During my wait to see “what would happen,” I wrote the song (in 2 days)  >>>
 
 I WILL FEAR NO EVIL. During the writing, I returned to awareness of James 1 & 4, that trusting God really annoys Satan.  God graciously brought me through yet another trial in less than a week yet in this small time my studio had already produced that song and put it on the World Wide Web to encourage anyone.  
 
Our FUN MUSIC  version, with God's help, of getting even with Satan for 'messing with' God's kids with thoughts of fears and his LIES – Read what Jesus said about him in John 8:44!

Dedicated to Protector LORD God, 7 January 2014 

LYRICS
1
Get even with Satan by letting GOD do it.
God can easily prove He's LORD OF ALL.

2
GET EVEN with Satan by letting GOD do it.
Creator God easily proves He's IN CONTROL.

3
GET EVEN with people by letting GOD do it.
Just forgive them.  Irk Satan!  See James Chapter 4.  LINK

BRIDGE
Satan really wants to get even back. 
  ..... Problems........     Temptations.
Just ONE WAY to fight Satan back
                    Quote God's Word back!
  
To Satan, Jesus quoted God's book. And He is God's Son.
Take hope and quote God's Bible back-- OUT LOUD! 
                   James 4:7.
Satan has to flee when you say God's Truth. God says,           James 4:8.
Call to God and God fights for you......
                   WHEN you let God Rule!
4
Sure Life has problems that cause pain and more, But we
rejoice in sorrows with Jesus as our LORD!
                                                                = James 1:2
5
God promised through James One: 
God's IN CONTROL.  
We get even with Satan   by praising GOD our LORD!  

READING
Deuteronomy 32 AND  Hebrews 10:30  AND  Romans 12:19 --
GOD says "Vengeance is MINE!"
..........  In Matthew 18, Peter asked "Do I forgive my brother 7 times?"
Jesus answered "Not seven times but SEVENTY times seven."
.........     AND -- If you're counting to 490 ---- That is NOT forgiveness   !
============================================================

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:

JAMES CHAPTER 1:  Profiting from Trials
2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 
3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 
4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. 
5    If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, 
who gives to all liberally and without reproach, 
and it will be given to him
6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Deuteronomy 32: 35, 43  AND  Hebrews 10:30  AND  Romans 12:19:  
GOD: “Vengeance is MINE, and recompense;  Their foot shall slip in due time;
 For the day of their calamity is at hand,  And the things to come hasten upon them.'” 
“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people; For He will avenge the blood of His servants, 
And render vengeance to His adversaries; He will provide atonement 
for His land and His people.”
Psalm 94: 1a - “O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongs—"       LINK   
 
Matthew 18:  JESUS:  Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to 70  times 7.”                                    LINK     ___________________________________________________________________

Song Story:   
             I was rather sad because I had only one new song for LORD God for my first studio session of the year 2014. The MORNING of that session, I was looking (and praying) through my computer folder of started music drafts-- and found a complete project never used. I prayed for a psalm to try to fit words with the music. I thought as I prayed, “How about 98?”

             Looked it up -- the words fit PERFECTLY.  And... I already had recorded Psalms 96, 97 and Psalm 99.  God is finishing the series!  I fit the words into the music in 1/2 hours and we recorded my vocals that night even though I had a bad cold - and put the draft on the World Wide Web the next morning.

This entire work of DiDoReflections is GOD's 
evidence of how HE  answers prayers 
when we yearn to serve Him. 
His Ephesians 3:20-21 empowering for HIS glory...  
not that of us little songwriters honored by Him.

Dedicated to Creator LORD God, 3 January 2014

LYRICS

1
O SING _ _ to the LORD GOD! Give Him _ _ a new song!
For God has done such marvelous things _ for you!
Holy God gives us the Vict'ry and makes known salvation to ALL who
    Name Him LORD.

God has revealed His righteousness to 

EVERY NATION, to the ends of Earth.
        God reveals Himself to the World!  

                   Sing to God with JOY!             
 
2
GOD WILL _ _ remember His Mercy and faithfulness!
Break forth in song -- sing joyfully, all the Earth!
Sing to God Who gives us Vict'ry - the LORD GOD - 

with guitars     and with psalms.    Shout with JOY!
Before the LORD our King and Savior, shout with joy & praise the LORD God, for
        God reveals Himself to the World!  Sing to God with JOY!

 
3
LET ALL _ _ nations sing in JOY to CREATOR GOD!
Let all the world clap hands together _ praise God,

Who is coming to judge the Earth with righteousness.
    God will judge all with equity!
Luke 17,  Jesus will return and call all those who 

call Him LORD CHRIST.                                         
        God reveals Himself to the World!  

        Sing to God with JOY!
==================================================

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
Psalm 98:  Oh, sing to the LORD a new song!
​​For He has done marvelous things...
​The LORD has made known His salvation; ​​
His righteousness He has revealed in the sight of the nations. ​​
He has remembered His mercy and His faithfulness to the house of Israel;  ​​
All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
7 ​​Let the sea roar, and all its fullness, ​​The world and those who dwell in it;  ​​
Let the rivers clap their hands; ​​Let the hills be joyful together before the LORD, ​​
For He is coming to judge the earth. 
​ ​With righteousness  
 He shall judge the world, ​​and the peoples with equity.

By the way -- Psalm 98 references praising God with HARPS - the equivalent use of
how we use guitars in the 21st century. I'm certain God won't mind how the stringed
instrument is called, for worshiping Him! -DdO:)

SONG STORY:  THE  LYRICS:   
          Satan's had centuries of experience finding the weak points in people...  So many things in life cause us fear.
I wrote this song's lyrics in the “high” of joyfully trusting God.
I wrote this song's music three months later in the “low” of joyfully trusting God even though I was unhappily fighting constant fear of having made some costly mistakes and the fear of not knowing what to do next (but in the trust: God listens.).

Why does God make so many promises to us?

LOVE.  Desiring  RELATIONSHIP with Him because
He DOES want you forever in heaven with him later but also NOW --
     James 4:7-8, the CURE for fear.
     Second Timothy 1:7 - God does not give us a Spirit of Fear. His perfect love casts out all FEAR when we trust....
God really cannot, by His Nature, lie - 
Titus 1:2.  GOD Himself speaking in NUMBERS 23:19.     And LOGIC.   
Dedicated to our Protector God, 31 Oct 2013; 31 Dec 2013

LYRICS
1
I WILL fear NO evil ... when God's on my side.
I seek to obey Him, in love for my God.
The world can be frightening. Life's Sea rages high.
BUT God is my Shepherd,
and I follow God.  I follow God!
He leads me to Still Waters.  I REST IN MY GOD!


CHORUS
    Psalm 23, I trust my Shepherd LORD.
    Hebrews 13:5, I trust my Shepherd God.
        Psalm 23, I trust my Shepherd LORD.
        Hebrews 13:5, I trust my Shepherd God.


2
THOUGH I walk through valley.... LORD God's by my side.
The shadows surround me -- BUT SO DOES MY GOD!
The world can be CUT-ting.  People slashing out.
BUT God's my Protector when I'm by His Side.
I follow God!  He leads me to peace and joy... 

gives rest to my soul!   >CHORUS

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
Hebrews 13:5 -- This scripture quotes JESUS - but not what He said that's recorded in the Gospels. This scripture reflects the Words of God in what we call the Old Testament -- in the Torah. Just as Isaiah 9:6 said long before, Hebrews 13:5's New Testament scripture is STATING -- BLATANTLY --
        that Jesus is God.
Jesus's Word through Joshua 1:5 and Deuteronomy 31:6 that Paul quotes Jesus as saying long  before that first Christmas:
Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have.

For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” - Hebrews 13:5

*   “Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for
the LORD your God,  He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.” - DEUT 31:6

*   “And the LORD, He is the One who goes  before you. He will be with you, He
    will not leave you nor forsake you;
do not fear nor be dismayed.”
Deuteronomy 31: 8

THOUSAND DOLLAR PIZZAS

 THOUSAND DOLLAR PIZZAS - by DianaDee Osborne

  © 2021, 2009 by DianaDee Osborne Songs.com

ALBUM:      Amazing Hope 'n' Humor

===============================================================================================
MUSICIANS:  Rights for most songs are available;  see  website "ABOUT US" tab.
===============================================================================================


Song Story:  THE  MUSIC.  Written with guitar in hand watching a bull frog stare at me from the pond at the ALIVE Music Festival in Canton Ohio USA, thinking about that sad January day when we ordered what became a very expensive pizza.  We should have asked for delivery!!! 

 
THE LYRICS:
     The song story is in the song... and it is true.  The pizza that night ended up costing $1,003.11  (which doesn't rhyme with anything, so I had to speak it!)  Yet it's so amazing -- we've had a lot of unexpected big bills come up, and yet ...

        God always keeps His 2nd Corinthians 9 promise to those who obey Him, including in trusting Him and SHOWING that trust by tithing, giving 10% off the top of their income. Lack of tithing shows lack of trust -- which God STILL will graciously overlook while blessing us sometimes.... but we miss SO much that way.  It's not just Jesus's  requirement (Matthew 23:23 and Luke 11:42) .....
        It's even fun to watch and see how God HELPS us afford the $1,000 pizzas   that come into  our lives.
Dedicated to our Providing Lord, 21 June 2009

Song location  http://dianadeeosbornesongs.com/2009---2011-Song-List.php

Song Lyrics: 
1
That day had started out so very well
despite all the things that I just had to do.
I'd paid all my bills and glanced at my red Bible.
Even my job went well -- the boss was OUT !
Picked up my phone and called up seven friends.
But never would sadly have guessed how this day would end.
     Here's my sad tale of woe... how my great day choose to go....    <bass solo :>
2
My day'd been full, __  but my stomach wasn't.
Too tired to cook,  but yearning food that's hot.
Looked in my wallet, found a hidden Twenty.
Picked up my phone and called the Pizza Spot.
    Mushroom and cheese to go....
    Just five short miles to Joy!
    BUT  now my tale of woe --  how my great day chose to go...    <bass solo :>
3
Pulled out my driveway.  Did something real  stupid.
It was so dumb  that I sure ain't saying what.
The nice policeman called the fire station.
At least I needed only one small fire truck.
Got towed and waited six days for my fixed car.
The bill showed that pizza had cost a thousand bucks.
    Here's my sad tale of woe:  The bill was really more.
    But in songs we can't say
    The bill was <Spoken:> "One thousand three dollars and eleven cents;
    You'd think they could round it down to a cost that rhymes with SOME thing."
4
Went to my book case, pulled out that red Bible.
Panic for coming bills can make us think of that.
Philippians 4 says God provides for our needs --  
Sor--ry:   Music for this songwriting ends right here.
    But   it's not the real end:   Here's your great news, my friend:
<Spoken> -- 

ALL of us have had   or   will have 
“THOUSAND DOLLAR PIZZAs"

in our lives -- things we really need, like money for bills that we just canNOT
see how we'll EVER afford.  But our Great God   PROMISES and proves again and again that He will  provide all the needs for anyone who TRUSTS Him...
        IF we follow His Words in the Bible like Malachi 3,  including to trust God with our finances and to  share with other people.
        From 2nd Corinthians 9:8  New Living Translation, “And God will generously provide all you need.  Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.  ----------    
    Including when Life brings YOU a Thousand Dollar Pizza.

RIGHT STUBBORN

 

RIGHT STUBBORN - by DianaDee Osborne

ALBUM:      Amazing Hope  'n'  Humor
Song location  http://dianadeeosbornesongs.com/Songs-2008-2012.php
Song Story:  THE COUNTRY MUSIC inspiration amuses me after years of saying "I don't like country."  But in fact I've learned to cherish many music styles and, with God's creative help, to incorporate them into songs that are, admittedly, rather weird for me!

Song Story:  THE LYRICS:
As I played this song to verify the lyrics against the audio file, one of my daughters was listening.  She muttered under her breath,  “Oh….. no!”   

I laughed and reassured her that this is just a “general” song about children’s personalities…. not about her.  

Or, perhaps more truthfully, no one would know *which* of  all my daughters I was really thinking of as I wrote this Song!
      My daughter’s adamant stubbornness probably saved her.  
After a horrendous car accident with many many broken bones, doctors were not reassuring that she'd easily walk again.   Yet my daughter’s stubbornness led her to “rebel” against the doctor’s predictions and determinedly work out with the physical therapist despite excruciating pain and discouraging weaknesses.  Now she hikes mountains and slams volleyballs.....


    Being stubborn FOR God, FOR what is right,  is  *not*  to be avoided.  Persistence is described  by Jesus in the story of the widow who kept coming to the judge in the middle of the night to get justice…. Luke 18.  “Stand Fast”,  Jesus repeatedly said.  It will save your life.  The life that counts.
Dedicated to God,  Who helps us Stand Fast (Galatians 5:1)... when we ask.
17 February 2011

Song Lyrics: 
PART  1
1
My daughter had a MIND of her own.
And once she made her her BABY mind up,
She was not to be moved by the things of this world.
Her Grandma said:   “MY, SHE'S RIGHT STUBBORN.”
2
My daughter had a MIND of her own.
And once she maser her TODDLER   mind up,
She was not to be moved by the things of this world.
Her teachers said:   “MY,  SHE'S RIGHT STUBBORN.”
3
My daughter had a MIND of her own.
And once she made  her TEENAGE mind up,
She talked with friends and chose   what she'd do   in this world.
Her Grand-Daddy  said:  
SPOKEN:    “I PRAYED that you'd get a child just like you!   
         THANK YOU,  GOD!”
 
PART 2
Have you ever wondered why God tells us over and over,
“Stand fast!  Be RIGHT Stubborn!   Don't choose the things of this World!”
”Stand FAST in the liberty where Christ has made you free.
Don't get trapped in worldly things --  First Corinthians 16, verse 13
 
PART 3

Do not love the world or the things of this world:
First John Chapter 2, verse 15. [repeat]
For all in the world, the lust in the eyes, the pride of Life is NOT of God,
God warns us:    First John Chapter 2, verse 16.

REFERENCES:
First Corinthians 16: 13 ---- Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.
Philippians 1:27  “...Let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ... stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel, and not in any way terrified by your adversaries, which is to them a proof of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that from God.”

Song Story:  THE  MUSIC
I really don't know where the weird music "in my head" came from, except to say "from God."  I was going for a sound that sounded like 

long-legged spiders dropping down from a wall.  

The growly noise that starts the song is a loop I just "found" in Garageband (see also my blog dianadeegarageband).  Claxton Wilson in my 2nd professional studio grabbed his drumsticks and started creating all those weird-er percussion sounds to match the mood!


THE  LYRICS:
Sadly... amusingly... this song is a TRUE story.  After leaving ALIVE 2009 and driving several hundred miles to the CREATION 2009 music festival, sure enough---a bunch of child's-hand-size white spiders hopped out of my tent case.  And I did pray that I had not introduced a new species to the Pennsylvania mountains.  However, after having gone to CREATION music festivals for ten years, the year 2010 was the first year I saw albino spiders at my Pennsylvania campsite.  As the song says,   I sure hope Pennsylvania  already had .......!

Song Lyrics: 
1
It surely was not my intent that when I packed my camping tent,
    I packed in some albino spiders too!
        I drove them for 500 miles, all tucked in my Ohio pile of
           gear on my way to my new camp site.
2
I opened my packed tent case.....     Out  FIVE  albino spiders came.....
    I sure was not about   to chase them through
        Pennsylvania hills and drive them home to Ohio!
3
I sure hope Pennsylvania had albino spiders before I made
this mistake in taking five    to their country side.
    God, please forgive mistakes I made and stop any hurt I
       made that day.  I can't stop spiders, but You can stop the hurt.
4
God, I sometimes hurt Your heart.  I ask “Forgive me” and You do.
    But I beg you to heal  any hurt I made...
        I'm sorry, God, please stop hurt I caused You!
5
God, I sometimes hurt people.  I ask “Forgive me” and they do.
    But I beg You to heal  any hurt I made...
        I'm sorry, God, please stop hurt I caused people!
6
Romans 7 sure describes me.   I keep doing things I don't mean to do.
God, heal the hurt I've caused, I pray!  Hurt to YOU, hurt to others,
    to Your World!  Please heal the hurts I've made!

         may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. “

From 2nd Corinthians 12: 9...   “And He [Jesus] said ...'My grace is sufficient for thee:
    for My strength is made perfect in weakness.
