Artist Information
Laura has always had a great love for music and started singing publicly at the age of 3. She has been giving private vocal instruction for the last five years.
Her effortlessly flowing and clear voice radiates her love and reverence of the Savior. With her debut release 'He is the Light' she presents music that is comforting, inspirational, and uplifting.
Laura enjoys mountain biking, hiking, skiing, rollerblading, drawing, and dancing.
The Journey of life is unique for each, and yet the same. Difficulties and troubles come to all, but their impact is determined by whether we walk alone or walk with God. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life". If we will walk with Him and let Him "light" our path, He will: lead us, guide us, comfort us, heal us, give us hope and make us whole. For He loves us, He knows us, He hears us, and He lives. He is the light and life of the world, our Savior, Redeemer, and Friend. Each of the songs on this CD are my witness that He lives and loves each one of us. That He is the Light.

John 14:6
Lyrics
If I had been there at His trial
And watched as they mocked Israel's King
I wonder if I would have tried to
Turn their hearts to Him?
If I had been there when they whipped Him
And watched as He fell to His knees
Would I have been willing to offer
My own life for Him?
(Chorus)
For His friends, how He bled
His love for them was just as He said
Greater love- He showed the greatest love of all
If I had been there at the hillside
When they fastened His hands to a cross
I'm sure that my heart would have broken
(Chorus)
For His friends, for His friends
And that's me if I do what He said
Would I give - could I live my life like Jesus?
Jesus
Well, now it's been years since His lifetime
And He and His love still remain
And all that I want is to be like Him
He was all I hope to be
I would give my life to be
The kind of friend Jesus was to me
Greater love
