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. 
Hey! I'm Set Aside
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

By Jesus Christ

I don't know why

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.
Set Aside: (The Remix)
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.
Set Aside
(She Knows)

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 

The Story Behind
Set Aside
(To Be
By Your Side)

 

"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. 

I pictured how it would feel to have the love of my life come, and finally show himself to me.

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!!!!!
Set Aside
(To Be
By Your Side)

Song Lyrics
​


 
Set aside

Set aside to be by your side

Set aside

Set aside to be by your side
 
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
