Just wanted to share one of the latest songs I have written. This particular song was written in response to the 4 day trip I took with my summer team to the very rural towns of Santo Corazon and San Fernando. The music player is located at the bottom of this entry. Enjoy! There's a town
Green and brown
With a shack
In the back
And in it
My spirit
Takes flight
To new heights
In this place
I finally see the face
Of one who isn't overcome
By dues and debts, and their sum.
The people
Are simple
Generous
----------
And so is
The warm breeze
Brown sand and
Helping hand
In this place
I finally see the face
Of one who isn't caught behind
The safety net of soul and mind.
When the sun
Stops his run
We gather
Together
With candles
And Bibles
In the shack
In the back.
And in this place
I finally see the face
Of one who knows the meaning of
Life is found in who you love.
