October 1, 2008 - Wednesday 
hello everyone

At the last few concerts, I've been playing a new song that will end up on the next record I'm doing with Daniel Bashta. The song is called Emmanuel and I wanted to share the lyrics with you so that when you come out to see us, you'll be a little more familiar with the song.

Emmanuel

Carry me to the place I know
Where the river runs so deep
Where the water moves over all of me
And I all but drown in your mercy

Carry me from this hell called home
Where the wolves like shepherds lead
Congregations far from the gospel's heart
To the desert of prosperity

Emmanuel
God with us, where are you now
Emmanuel
God with us, be near somehow

Lift me up to the place I know
In the shadow of your wings
Where I'm safe from harm hidden in your arms
Never far from the sound of your breathing

Lift us up from this hell called home
Where the blood of children speaks
Of the wars we've made, Of the lives we trade
For this desert of prosperity

I have to be honest, I have a real problem with these lyrics.
