Steve, this is a really nice write with a fine arrangement some great playing and your trademark impeccable vocals. A top notch listen. Tom Thanks so much, Tom, for listening and commenting! Appreciate your kind words. this is the kind of song where I particularly like your voice.
It's beautiful, as ever ;-)
Rob Thank you, Rob! Glad you like this one. Hello, Steve
Very beautiful song!
Your main vocal and the backing vocals are outstanding.
As Robert said, the production is just right- simple, with just enough instrumentation to keep the flow.
Hammond organ solo is very pleasant.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thanks, Shigeki! Your comments are very welcome. Hey Steve,
This is beautiful. So smoooth... and a great vocal!
Excellent write.
Greg Hi, Greg. Always good to hear from you. Glad you enjoyed this one! === Steve

Busy or not it came out just fine. The melody, lyric and vocal are all so supportive of one another. And your playing wonderfully complements the above. As in the dictionary definition of complements (with the "e" ) states, "a thing that brings to perfection." And from Greg, we'll borrow "...meditative and really, really beautiful." Thanks for sharing. J&B

Steve, I am late and everything that I wanted to say already has been said, i.e beautiful song, outstanding lyrics and vocal, great job on playing your own instruments,etc etc etc.
All I can add is if this were playing on the radio I would immediately go out and buy the CD.
This is definitely a keeper. Always good to hear from you, Mario! Thanks for your kind words. (I'll let you know when this one is in the stores.) Steve,
This is the epitome of simplicity at its most beautiful. A superb arrangement and vocals that are so comfortable for the ears and the mind. This is splendid in so many ways. Standing "O" from both of us.
Alan & Di Thanks, Alan & Di! I'm glad you enjoyed this one! == Steve

Hi Steve...
this is the kind of writing I've come to expect from you... lush and intricately woven with subtle background patterns and a message that resonates with any spirit whose hope extends beyond the confines of a temporal existence!
Your talents are varied, and they provide the unique ingredients that set your songs apart from everyone else's (although I guess that statement is kind of generic, since everyone's uniqueness shapes their music. )
But I'm speaking specifically about how your faith influences your lyrics in an infinitely expansive way. Your performing and mixing talents are the icing on the cake.
There are lots of people in this forum who are doing a great job of showing what is possible with Band in a Box. And you are one of them. But you are one of the few who shows how it can be used as a ministry. I like that about your songs, and I respect your willingness to use your gift of music in that direction.

Thank you, Pat! I always enjoy hearing from you. Your comments are very appreciated. Glad you like this one. I do try to write songs that are uplifting, and hopefully point in the right direction. Thanks again for your encouraging words. === Steve

Steve,
This is such a mighty presentation. I don't know what words I can use to tell you just how beautiful this sounded to me. Everything resonated with magnificence. You took me to places that no song has ever taken me before. I really enjoyed this journey.
May good things come your way,
Noel
