Mary Meade & Friends

I’m a songwriter, pianist, and worship leader. Every song I write grows out of my own journey of faith and what it means to follow Jesus day by day.

For me, songwriting isn’t simply about creating music — it’s about giving voice to what God is doing in our hearts and in our world. My hope is that these songs won’t just be heard, but experienced — that they might invite others to encounter the wonder of God within their own story. For me, worship isn’t confined to a stage or a song; it’s a way of life marked by joy, gratitude, and love that spills into everyday moments.

Over the years I’ve written more than 50 worship songs and spent countless hours leading from the piano, playing with bands, and mentoring other musicians. I’ve also taught privately, helping younger players discover their own sound and grow in confidence in their musical journey.

Many of the songs you hear here began as earlier recordings I wrote, arranged and sang years ago. Over time I had the privilege of working with a number of wonderful musicians on those recordings, including studio session players who helped bring the songs to life. These newer versions revisit those original songs with fresh mixes, instrumentation,  and production, using modern digital recording tools and enhanced studio software to give them a fuller sound while still keeping the heart of the originals. Some of this work has also been done with the help of a recording studio in Arizona.

Because I care deeply about the local church, I want these songs to be easy to use. I’ve chosen to make my worship music and lead sheets freely available for congregational use, without requiring subscriptions or licensing fees through organizations. If these songs serve your church, you’re welcome to use them. My prayer is simply that removing barriers helps leaders focus on what matters most — creating space for people to encounter God.
