Music Albums by Charlie Blueberry Patch
The name of this album comes from our first song on the album. When I wrote this into the computer I wasn't expecting the results. I cried every time I heard it for a month before I could listen to it without tears. It is litterally how I always felt about the story of what happened to Jesus. No one and I mean no one ever deserved that.
I'll See You In My Dreams Dad
I kept seeing people post dad can I have a hug fast please. Dad would respond yes but why fast? they would say because im going to wake up. So I sat with that for a long time and finally got the words right wasn't expecting this result. If your missing you dad in heaven this songs for you.
You Die When God Says It's Your Time
This song is about me my first attempt and how it failed now my father didnt save me like the song says but that gun wouldn't fire fully loaded and safety off. God wouldn't let me. True Story
Fading Superman
The song that broke me. This is the actually Story of my father and how I watched the man I saw as superman fade to nothing and die. This one will never not hurt. Funny thing is my dads favorite comic book was Superman. The first one we ever got together was The Death of Superman.
My Story the Extended Story
A complete musical of my life. Beginning with my childhood, my fall from God, and ending with Forgiveness, Humbling myself, and ultimately being healed enough to go on. Right as God places it on my heart to begin a new journey.
Had to be Truth
The songs of this album took a while to get right. With heavy orchestra and trying to match them to the correct vocals to match many songs were not correct and had to be made multiple times.
If it Hurts it must be good
Over the course of creating this album I had to step back from designing it as hearing it hit harder than I thought it would
First take wasn't enough
The first release just felt like there was something missing so after reviewing it a few times I found 8 areas that needed to be extended
For Charlie Memorial Album.
So many songs here I could talk about but the most important is a prayer called one more miracle. I pray this prayer every day for Charlie.
I'd Take It
This song was better than I thought it would be describing this I doubted my wording and God made sure it came out saying exactly how I felt. If I could I would swap with him so he could raise his babies.
Blueberry Budget
Still praying that Erica gets this one someday. The difficulty of making this song took me days and days and a good 20 songs that just didn't cover it. I prayed and prayed for this one to come out right then I heard this.
Charlie's Lantern
This song specially is about an actual lantern here on Charlies Blueberry Patch from Heaven. When I was young, I was once told if you light a lantern for someone at a memorial, they can be there with you. So, we got a lantern for Charlie, and it will hang in the Garden.
Nursing work of the Heart
We began this album as my wife was remembering her days in the newborn ICU as a nurse and the first song that came out was two pound miracle. That led to 14 songs total for the nurses of the world. From us to you we want you to know we see you and we love you.
Discharge Papers
Did you know there's someone who's fighting in your corner every step of your hospital journey? They tend to get little to no credit and still show up everyday for everyone. They call them social workers and care managers. This song is about them.
Forty Two White Shoes
A story of my wifes mother who wanted to be a nurse most of her life. Finally became one and about 10 years into it got sick and couldn't do it anymore.
Hands on Heart
Ever wonder how nurses feel when a heart attack patient comes in? How they react and what they do and how serious they take it. They give all they have to every patient but ones in a risky situation like this there hearts and hands align and they fight hard to keep them with us. Hands on Heart is that story
Mercy on the Rope
Have to start with the main song Mercy on the Rope. This was my second attempt and how it happened. I broke my jaw and was stuck in that rope. Everyone said there was no way from the broken jaw that I could have gotten out of the rope. The way it twisted under me it wasnt possible. Yet I woke up on the floor of my garage. After I came home from the hospital I walked out in that garage, and I saw that rope was still hanging there and still tight. I don't have an explanation but looking back I realized God Saved me that day. It was the only way I lived.
No Tears in Heaven
Ever been told theres no tears in heaven? I have and I always say if that's a rule I'm breaking it. The moment I see my dad I will break and cry like a baby. I was amazed how the computer made this song. It's one of my favorites.
Little By Little
As I build the memorial, I have learned to be patience this song turned out so much deeper than my memorial builds though. It's about life and how so often everyone wants everything at once and how God tends to provide what we need little by little and in the end it all works out. We also learn more lessons as we go. Humbling ourselves along the way.
One more forgive
Every see the posts where they say when you get to heaven God tells you there's one more person for you to forgive. This song is about that and asks the question if your peace in heaven required you to forgive yourself could you do it? If not, then what happens?
I Loved You All
What can I say about the main track of this album. A headstone that says what most can't or won't ever say. It's not just the family and friends in this one. I created this song because this will one day be what it says on my tombstone.
Daddy Would Know
Sit here ever since the first album showed up on spotify feeling this way. I did it daddy. First time ever I think he would have said I'm proud of you. Yeah this one hurts.
What Did I Fight For?
I can't speak for all Veterans, but I know lately I see posts about this a lot. Veterans asking what did we do it for?
Give Him Back
The Description for this one was personal even named it myself. When my younger cousin died I screamed no!!! Give Him Back You Can't Have Him!! Didn't work but I screamed it anyways.
Military Tribute
What can this old Navy Veteran say? I can't not send my love out to everyone serving or has served. My love for them all is greater than most could understand. The sacrifices they give every day. Knowing how it feels it only feels right to give them a tribute album. First song is our 9/11 song and its one that hits the soul. We haven't Forgotten and we never will. If you feel this song wait till September 11'th when we put the music video on our website it turned out better than I could ever believe.
POW MIA
Never Forgotten. Never left behind we will keep looking until somehow, they come home. POW MIA fits this well
We're Going Home
This song created emotions deep inside me. We never leave a man behind and this song is the men and women out there telling their brothers and sisters you don't give up we're going home.
No More Folded Flags
The prayer of every leader in the battlefield. Lord no more folded flags. Protect us keep us safe and no more folded flags. Hits hard
Dedications
Every song on this album was based on posts on social media. Ways to try and help people heal as I see their struggles posted on social media and I want them to know someone sees them, and they care. Special Thank You to all of you who posted online and inspired all these songs. Volume two is being made soon.
Own Table
A Song about how people would rather sit at their own table alone then to have to fake being someone their not to impress others.
If I Lived
I felt this post the second I saw it. It made me cry thinking of this pour lady trying to make sense of would life had been better if she had lived instead of trying to survive. Having done both living and surviving at different times I can only pray she had a little living in there and praying she gets to live now.
First Thing You Saw
Lost it the first time I heard it. Started asking what dad saw first when he got there. One post one song didn't expect it to hit me so hard. If you're missing someone in heaven you will feel this one.
Family Volume One
So many songs here it took two albums to put them all out. Oh, and a third ones coming soon. These songs are about family and will register with a lot of people, but they are special to us because these are all My wife and My songs for our family.
Five Little Chairs
Well my brother in law. We may not be the best of friends, but I am so honored I was able to make this for you. We love you.
Fight Like Me
If my wife's dad didn't realize it before his little girl is proud to be like him and she is happy he taught her to fight like him. Also, thanks for that because yes, she fights just like you.
dreamt children/grandbabies mend
In case you ever find yourself sitting where we have for four years these songs may help. We grew up before we got together and I came in with four her with two but none of our own. She made Dreamt Children. I heard it and made grandbabies mend.
Family Volume Two
With so many songs coming from our hearts and two of us typing away at the app it's no surprise there is two volumes dropping the same day. Our hearts went into every word and when I saw the covers I knew these albums were special.
Only an Hour
I can't not cry when this song comes on. True story as my grandfather was dying from dementia and in the final stages. My father and me drove to see him in the home they had him in. He couldn't move only could watch the tears from his eyes. A man I never saw cry before. So I walked out sat under a tree and God gave me a miracle that day.
Six Weeks Old
My wife's actual story here. I asked her many times how could you let him do that? How could you let him treat you like that? So, she made a song that brings me to my knees. I understand why now.
Mercy at the Table
The pain in this song. My adult daughter came to Missouri to live with us and start over. As her dad I have many songs about her on these albums. But my wife made this one for her and wants her to know she always did love her and still does.

One Nation Under God
What's the old saying oh yeah ONE NATION UNDER GOD!!!! That's who we are, and you can feel it in this song. Have Pride Everyone We are and always will be ONE NATION UNDER GOD!!!
Song For Every Branch
Though as a Navy Veteran I want to speak of the Navy Song. My Viking Wife Has Spoken and I am to announce there's one song for every Branch We Love You All.
We Need Jesus
What do I say about this Album the first song and the title is that way for a reason. We Need Jesus is exactly it This County and this world needs Jesus now more than ever. This was the first album where a few of the songs are actually right from bible verses.
Only Way Home
When you finally realize the only way home to your dad is to realize your daddy isn't the only father who loves you. When you turn to him every day feels like a step closer.
New Song in Me
The first song made completely from a bible verse. Couldn't help but dance and sing this song when I heard it. God created a beautiful song when he made this one. Thank you lord. You put a new song in me.
What would Jesus Do?
Use to hear this alot as a child. Felt it needed to come back. Whatever you do each day do you ever ask yourself what would Jesus do. I know every time I want to attack a comment online, I stop and say What would Jesus do.
Memories
They hurt us in so many ways. Lost loved ones, the way that girl did you in high school 30 years ago, just being a pretty face but never loved. Memories hurt even 20,30,40,50 years later. Ignoring them don't make it any better.
Boyfriend in Waiting
The moment you realize anyone could do this to you just keep you there holding your hand kissing your cheek telling them they love them when girls ask what happened to men and why they are the way they are. This was High school for a lot of us.
Just a pretty Face
My wife made this song and remembered all those years she was the dance partner, the pretty face everyone saw and smiled at then walked away. No one serious always playing games with her. So, guys if you wonder why women are closed off today this is something a lot of women were made to feel.
More time for Dad
She remembers the years the days the love of her dad and then saw him in that hospital bed and this was her prayer. Don't think she realized I was praying the lord take me and not her dad. if someone had to go. I love my wife with all my heart.
Take Me Back To The 80's
Did somebody say Gen X. Were here and we want to go back more than you know. From time travel to being upset we don't have what they said we'd have by now. Why we still driving cars aren't we supposed to be flying them by now. What another remake stops remaking my childhood!!!! Just take us back already!!!!
We Were Wrong
What Gen X Wrong oh yes we were. We said robots would mow the lawn, that we'd live on the moon, and so many other things and this song is exactly about how wrong we were.
I don't have to take this, I'm going home
Anyone know the original actor? I'd love to see his face when he hears this. Hey enjoy the song but no pulling those pants up and walking away LOL!!!
Where's my Hoverboard
Ok I got a job, I saved my money worked hard to make it. I now have a house a car and still no hoverboard could you make one already before I'm too old to stand on it.
Our Love Songs
For those who know where Newberry Springs California is guess what we did? We made an entire album about it. We grew up there we loved and we lost there. Though we don't live there that will always be our first home. 30 years apart to be brought back together. Our Love Story only worked because of Newberry Springs California.
Thirty Five Years and one Amen
How did we get here? Well, here you go. Did it hurt? Yes, Was it hard? Yes, Did God know what he was doing? OHHH YES, HE DID!!! Worth it all and never been happier than we are now. Here's the thing we wouldn't have been if not for the fact we grew and learned first. Trust God's Timing.
Barstow Girl/Barstow Boy
Two kids growing in Barstow and two lives big enough for two songs. Her story and his were the same for a short time then they were separate. Then of course God takes two separate songs and makes a new one from the old two.
Newberry Springs Promise
Ever think a desert town in California could be turned into a fairytale song? Well, here you go. How my wife and I grew up and moved away and came back together. All around Newberry springs California anyone from there or who remembers us should love this song.
You Can't Save a Soul Alone
Again, first song is the title of the album. From dragging myself off the floor to her doorstep in Missoui and how her family built me from the broken man I was to a man who's done more now than he believed he was even capable of. She couldn't do it alone. Her family carried my pain and my hurt and they slowly kept reminding me that God was everything. They didn't do it alone and you can't save a soul alone!!!
Stop Pretending
I wanted to make sure this song covered as many types of realtionships as I could. We so often yell, scream, get mad break things whatever it is then just pretend everything's ok and nothing happened. We need to stop pretending.
Miles and the Truck
This one could make you laugh but for me I'm reminded that even when I thought it was boring in the Navy nothing was more boring than trying to kiss a girl without permission. Wondering what I mean go listen to the song.
Wanted to be Loved
My wife would choose the one song that hurts me the most on the album. This was me every step and every loss. All I ever wanted was to be loved to know how it felt for someone to want to be with you more than anyone else. Felt it a few times in my life but hurts when it goes away. It's why I tell her I always fear her getting tired of me and leaving me. She keeps saying she won't ever leave me. heals that worry every time.
