Description:
i'm wanting to add a sax solo at the end if i can ever get my daughter around to it. i got tired of waiting so i'm posting it now.

Lyrics:
earth and sky sun and moon
the oceans and their life within
in all their beauty and majesty
architecture and grand design
there's and order i can't deny
i look into this world and see
the work's of God i can't perceive
how did you create such a plan
i cannot fathom or understand

in your likeness from the dust
with your breath gave us birth
we push our limits we turned out backs
still you care for this child of wrath
for all our trouble for all we're worth
You sent redemption threw a virgin birth
i look into my eye's and see excuse for
wrath poured out on me
why did you create this stubborn man
i cannot fathom or understand

the brightest minds and philosophers
explain away your wondrous works
how could these men be so blind
they shut their eyes and close their minds
from the beginning threw eternity
You reach out to humanity
i look at mankind and i see
spiraling downward in depravity
You open Your heart hold out Your hand
i cannot fathom or understand 3 x

to sound fresh and evolving with each new submission.Really liked the way you integrated so much of God's Word into this tune.Lots of truth spoken here.Your instrumentation along with the strong vocal work and the Moody Blues kinda' vibe work well together.Much enjoyed,much enjoyed.

Blessings,

your comments are always encouraging and uplifting, thanks again. when i write songs dealing with my faith and beliefs i like to be able to back it up to the scripture and what's inside of me.
thanks for the vocal comment, i've always thought it my weakest point but thanks to everyone's comments on mj i'm putting more effort in to them

i had a lot of trouble trying to categorize this one. i really enjoyed working on this one. i usually write the music and how it makes me feel inside is what inspires the lyrics. thanx for the kind words !!

not to make you feel old &mdash 11/06/07 - 08:43:20 PM
or myself for that matter... the style here reminds of some of the albums i use to listen to in the 70's. Has a real dreamy feel without being ambient. nice!

only in my bones, thanx for a new idea, i just thought maybe i should add a few timpani's like in the "beach boys stuff ". it will still not compare to that awesome last entry of yours. it's really challenging me to explore what can i do to get a better mix and more pro sound.
