MY CROSBY
https://archive.gregscheer.com/sounds/my_crosby.mp3
MY CROSBY is a straight-up Gospel hymn for CMD texts. Since it’s written in the style of Fanny Crosby, I called the tune MY CROSBY. (Which seemed more appropriate than MY FANNY.)
This is an orphan tune, waiting to be adopted by a text to call its own. If you write lyrics for this melody or pair it with an existing text, please report its use to CCLI or OneLicense and let me know how you’ve used it.

Neither Death Nor Demon
http://musicblog.gregscheer.com/neither_death_nor_demon.mp3
This song on Romans 8 could be sung as a coda to my setting of Psalm 3 (same key) or as a stand-alone Scripture song. Though I took quite a bit of liberty with the text, I think it still conveys the spirit of Romans 8.

O Breath of Life
https://musicblog.gregscheer.com/COS_rote-o_breath_of_life.mp3
I originally recorded this song as a pop-punk retune of the hymn text by Bessie Porter Head. Naturally, the idea was met with some skepticism. But beneath the hood is a perfectly singable congregational song. You see? Songs are just like people. Sometimes beneath a prickly punk facade is a placid heart of gold.
