Going Forward
John’s song is so appropriate for this first EP. He plays the guitars and sings harmony. Steve’s on viola and adds a harmony, Chuck sings lead and plays bass.
Going Forward
Going forward without wond’ring why
I sojourn down the years between the soil and the sky.
Many homes reach out to welcome me
and many houses weep and wave goodbye.
Here’s love to those who I forgot to thank
and peace to those upset.
I doubt there lives a man or woman on earth
who hasn’t blessed me yet.
Children glowing with your eyes of awe.
Remember all the secret things the wise never saw.
From the oceans castles rise
and lions purr with a pluck of a thorn from their paws.
Seabirds soaring as I walk the sand
Stalking after answers only God understands
I know little about why we’re here
but I know the kindness of the touch of your hand.
