This video presents a contemporary Christian song that tells two stories from the bible, emphasizing the power of faith and seeking Jesus. Many today feel lost and uncared for. Some feel its too late, made too many mistakes, too many burned bridges. However, there is a Savior that knows their situation, knows their pain. He is waiting for them to REACH OUT! Jesus is always present and will meet them at their needs. Hearts can be healed, lives can be changed. We all have a " GET ME TO JESUS"

Welcome to Cypress Lake Music — a quiet place for honest songs and music with a story behind every note.

Greetings, my name is Grady Francis, founder, songwriter and producer behind CYPRESS LAKE MUSIC.
I started this journey in my home studio in the panhandle of West Texas—with nothing but a mic, a keyboard, and a prayer.
I'm originally from Shreveport, Louisiana. I spent much of my youth on the local cypress lakes, fishing with my dad for seemingly endless summers, learning piano beside my mother as a youngster, playing trombone in school, and playing in long haired cover bands. Those memories lead me late in life to start this website and share music I create and also share covers of some favorites of mine. Hoping you enjoy.
In tribute to my late father, I named this adventure CYPRESS LAKE MUSIC.
Thank you for visiting my site.
God bless you,
Grady Francis

CYPRESS LAKE MUSIC ORIGINALS

Original song from CYPRESS LAKE MUSIC. Written and performed by Grady Francis This is a song from the perspective of an older man looking back. Having the love of a wife for a lifetime and letting her know that no matter what happens in life he is happy just as long as she is with him. All copyrights are property of CYPRESS LAKE MUSIC 2026
This song is about the amazement of finding the right person to be with in your life. Some have it, some search for it all their lives. We were not created to be alone. If you have that person or dream of finding them, I believe this is how you may feel when you know you finally found them.
