IN PROGRESS!!  I always have more songs to add!

​Hi!  Thanks for stopping by. 
      I have written @500 songs and I am @15 years behind in notating them as sheet music!  I am now diligent about notating new songs in professional notation software (I use Finale), and I'm very slowly catching up on old songs!  
      Some are Lead Sheets (L means you get words, melody, and names of chords), and some are also full Piano Arrangements (P means you get words, melody, chord names, AND a fully written-out piano part.)  
      Email me and I can send you a .pdf directly, and you can pay via PayPal or Venmo.
      If you request a certain song, I'll put it on the top of my To Do list.   
      Check back occasionally for newly notated songs, some of which will be added to this list and/or at Heartwind Music.
      Thanks for your support!                         ~ Lyte

​Lyte composes, accompanies, and sings with Womansong of Asheville community chorus. Two of Lyte's original songs appear on their CD "Everybody Got Her Own."  Lyte's song "With Great Love" was selected and performed by a 300-voice mass choir at Sister Singers Network Festival 2010 in Chicago (sheet music available).  Her song "I Will Carry You" is the title track on Womansong's 2012 CD, and is used by some "threshold choirs" (singers for hospice & transition). Her latest choral composition "Together We Can Change the World" has been selected to be performed by mass choir at Sister Singers Festival 2023 in Cleveland.

Lyte wrote a new song almost every month for the SAB choir at Unity in Mills River.  Lyte's songs for congregational singing (designated "group") have been widely used in Unity churches, and have been published in a Unity hymnal ("I Am Love") and in an Unity Worldwide Ministries' songbook Songs From A World Awakening, Volume I ("Hold Me In Your Arms, Mother Earth," "I Open My Life," and "Spirit's Journey") and in the Heart Wind Music Online Choral Library. "We Are All Friends Here" is used as a welcome song in many Unity churches; "The Greatest Gift" is also sung in several churches of other denominations. At her home church, her solo songs created a space to begin meditation... or to rock out with The Unitic Band.
