Tanya Godsey

About:

Tanya Godsey is a new artist brought to our attention, and i must admit i got pretty caught up with her song “White Page” and not only felt in love with the melody but the lyrics are also very powerful. The song talks fictive in it’s lyrics comparing people with white pages on which we write the things we do everyday, forgetting sometimes that we are Gods children and should be working more for our God then for the worldDo our lives leave much space for the the hand of a writing God, To create to sign His name on us when the work is done, Also reminding us that our lives don’t belong to us anymore but to the one true God which we serve and to which we once turned our faces and gave our lives “Because the ink we hold is not our own”.
