The Story Behind
Set Aside
"Set Aside" is the first song on the SET ASIDE: THE EP project.
I actually wrote this song back in 2003.
I was feeling sad and upset because I did not have a boyfriend.
I just could not understand why nothing ever worked out with any of the guys who passed through my life.
I said to myself, "I feel like God has set me high upon a shelf where no man can get to me. So, I guess I'm just set aside."
That is where the song, Set Aside came from.

Set Aside
Song Lyrics
It's been such a lonely place in my life
I've had to be on my own
I've had to give up so many of my friends
That I would talk to on the phone
Because I'm
Set aside
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keeping my mind
Set aside
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keeping my mind
Stayed on you
I've met so many guys time after time
Why can't I have one boyfriend in my life
But they don't qualify
I can't be satisfied
With a man who does not know Christ
Because I'm
Set aside
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keeping my mind
Set aside
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keeping my mind
Lord you said
That if I keep my mind stayed on you
That you would keep my mind in perfect peace
So I'll jsut stay right here and wait for you to move
And I'll remain at ease
Because I'm
Set aside
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keeping my mind
Set aside
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keeping my mind
Stayed on you

The Story Behind
Hey! I'm Set Aside
"Hey! I'm Set Aside" is the second song from the SET ASIDE: THE EP project.
I wrote this song because I am always asked by men and women, "Why don't you have a man in your life?"
Most people do not understand why I'm waiting on the Lord to give me the right person.
They think I should be putting myself out there so I can meet the man of my dreams.
But I don't want to do that; I do not want to meet any men who are not living for God.

Song Lyrics
So you wanna be my boyfriend
Well, I'm gon' tell you again
That I don't date men
Who are living in sin
Cuz I'm set aside
By Jesus Christ
Hey.........Hey
So you wanna know
What I'm waiting fo'
Waitin' on the Lord
And that ain't no joke
Cuz I'm set aside
By Jesus Christ
Hey..........Hey
So just go away
You need to get saved
You're just a fake
And not my soulmate
Cuz I'm set aside
By Jesus Christ
Hey..........Hey
Set aside
By Jesus Christ
I'm keeping my mind
Stayed on You
Set aside by Jesus Christ
Hey.........Hey
I'm set aside

But I've made up my mind
To be set aside
By Jesus Christ
Hey

The Story Behind
Set Aside
(The Remix)
"Set Aside
(The Remix)" is the third song on the SET ASIDE: THE EP project.
I wrote this song because I thought the Lord brought the right man to me.
I truly thought he was a man of God, but I was wrong.
It was very disappointing for me to go through that.
So, I had to go back to square one, which was being alone-----again.
But I knew God was still good and I had already won this battle.
I wanted to encourage all of the ladies to be strong in the Lord and continue to be set aside until He sends them the right man.

Song Lyrics
Hey Lord, there is this guy that I really like
And I can see that he's the one for me
But somehow I found out that I was wrong
That I was so wrong
But I've waited so long
To experience, a love this strong
Now this love has gone, this love has gone, now this love has gone
And that's why I'm singing this song
Set aside, by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keepin' my mind stayed on you
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keepin' my mind stayed on you
Hey Lord, there was this guy
And I thought he was, the man of my dreams
And all the things, that he said to me, really really seemed.....true
But one day I, got a clue
That all he wanted to do, was do the do
Now I'm back to square one, which ain't no fun
But in the end, I know that I've already won
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keepin' my mind stayed on you
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keepin' my mind stayed on you
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keepin' my mind stayed on you
Set aside by Jesus Christ
I don't know why
But I'm keepin' my mind stayed on you
I'm set aside by Jesus Christ
I've made it up in my mind
Not to waste a bit of time
On a man who is not fine
I'm at the point in my life
Where losers just don't satisfy, me
Cuz I am a dime
And I know I'm set aside
All my ladies, if you're set aside
Let me hear ya, sing after me
Say uh-oh, say uh-oh, say uh-oh
Oh yeah

The Story Behind
Set Aside
(She Knows)
"Set Aside (She Knows)" is the fourth song from the SET ASIDE: THE EP project.
I wrote this song in story form about a very beautiful woman, who is always being approached by lots of different men wanting to take her out on dates.
She does not want to date any of them because she is waiting on the Lord to bring her a holy man of God.
Even though she is waiting on the Lord, she is not sitting at home crying and eating ice cream.
Instead, she is attending events like dinner parties, and she remains social.
She is hopeful that she will meet her mate, perhaps at one of the functions she attends.
But in the meantime, she's going to continue to be happy and encouraged.

Song Lyrics
She knows that she is set aside
She really doesn't understand why
She hasn't had a date since 2005
But she's still waiting for the right guy
She prepares for the dinner party
With a frown on her face
She is feeling oh so very lonely
Because she doesn't have a date
But she's still going, out to have a good time
Tonight she could meet her mate
She knows that she is set aside
She really doesn't understand why
She hasn't had a date since 2005
But she's still waiting for the right guy
She's a woman with very stunning beauty
She can have any man she wants
Hundreds of guys are all lined up to date her
Every place she has gone
But she can't go out, with just anybody
Not Anybody
He has to be a holy man of God
She knows that she is set aside
She really doesn't understand why
She hasn't had a date since 2005
But she's still waiting for the right guy
She is tired but encouraged
She desires a happy marriage
She is waiting, instead of dating
She's holding on, she's being strong, she knows that it won't be long
She knows that she is set aside
She really doesn't understand why
She hasn't had a date since 2005
But she's still waiting for the right guy

"Set Aside (To Be By Your Side)" is the last song on the SET ASIDE: THE EP project.
In this song, I wrote the fairytale of my dreams.

Basically, I wanted a happy ending to SET ASIDE: THE EP.
After all of the drama that happened to Joshland Shervette, the Lord sends her the man of her dreams!!!!!
Yay!!!!!

I've met so many guys time after time
Why can't I have one boyfriend in my life
But they don't they don't qualify
I can't be satisfied
With a man who does not know Christ
But then I met you
My soulmate for life
I knew the first time
I looked into your eyes
That you were the guy
To love me til the end of time
Until the day that I die
Set aside
Set aside to be your side
Set aside
Set aside to be your side
Hey girl
The first time I looked in your eyes
I knew you were set aside for me
And I know you've been waiting for such a long long time.....
You know, um on Jesus Christ
You know
But I'm lettin' you know that I'm here, girl
Now I'm here to make you all mine
Because you were set aside by Jesus Christ
And now you know why....
So that I can look in your eyes, and love you all the time
And that's real.....
I love you, and I will always be there for you
No matter what, through thick and thin, on me you can always depend
Because, you know, you're for me and I'm for you, and that's the way God made it
So, uh, let's just walk into the next.....let's walk into the next level, you know, hand in hand with each other
And, you know, we can make it, with Jesus Christ everything is possible, we can make it, we can do this together
Aight? Let's do this.
I know that I was created just for you
And me for you
Love of my life
So be my wife
Are you for real
I am for real
Oooohhhh, then yes I will
Good, (sigh) I'm so glad you said yes
So, I was figurin' we could go to Vegas
And then.... we could......go on our honeymoon to the Caribbean
You know, and kick back, and just enjoy life together, you know
And um....we could just go on from there, in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ
You feel me?
Yeah
