Thank you so much for visiting my music pages here at SoundClick! My new 12-track CD "DANCE IN THE RAIN" is finally released and is available for purchase at CDBaby.com or at my official website, fredatapp.com. I am participating in this forum at SoundClick as a professional songwriter, hoping to garner the attention of producers and performing artists who may be interested in using my music. My first song, "Thou Art a Shield" was immediately well-received and has been printed, recorded and performed by various artists around the world in a number of genres and languages. It has received major-label distribution and has been reviewed as a stand-out track on a Billboard Top 10 album by Byron Cage, 2004 Stellar Male Vocalist of the Year and winner of Best Contemporary Gospel cd of the year. This album also won the 2004 Soul Train Award for the best contemporary gospel cd. Byron was also nominated along with Beyonce Knowles and Ruben Studdard for the 2004 BET Image Award. Psalm Three was also recorded at the London arena by the Kingsway International Christian Centre Mass Choir from the largest church in western Europe. It was produced by Europe's renowned Nicky Brown and was chosen as one of the "hottest tracks in the UK." I hope this will encourage you to check out my music link and listen to some of my other offerings. For me, songwriting is the most fun job in the world, but my ultimate goal is to stay focused on pleasing the Lord and following through with the purpose He has planned for me.

Lyrics
The song posted here on Soundclick is my simple songwriter version, but Byron Cage created a stunning urban masterpiece and cranked it up to the top of the Billboard charts with his award-winning album. Although Byron has risen to the top of the gospel music industry, his genuine humility and focus inspires me to be a worthy servant in this business of music. ---------------------------------- Verse 1: Lord, how are they increased that trouble me Many are they that rise up against me Many there be that say of my soul "There is no help for him in God" (but) Chorus: Thou O Lord, art a shield for me My glory, the lifter of my head Thou O Lord, art a shield for me My glory, the lifter of my head Verse 2: I cried unto the Lord with my voice and He heard me out of his holy hill I laid me down and I slept I awaked, for the Lord sustained me Verse 3: I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me round about I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me round about Verse 4: Arise O Lord, save me O my God For thou hast smitten all my enemies Upon the cheekbone thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly Over and out: Salvation belongeth unto the Lord Thy blessing is upon thy people ------------------------------------------------- Lyrics: David Ben Jesse/Psalm 3 Music: Freda Tapp Piano & lead vocals: Freda Tapp Drums & percussion: Daniel Nelson Guitars: Roscoe Meek, Robin Vosbury Violin: Tara Wiley Back-up vocals: Robbie Tapp & Robin Vosbury
