I wrote the music to this song during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The music, as a work in progress, was called "Dance of Angels" because it came to me while observing the "angels" in my hometown of Houston. Thousands of helpful men, women and children turned out to serve those displaced by the terrible storm.

In the beginning, I planned to put this song on the record as an instrumental, then after spending time with co-writers Clint Lagerberg and Tony Wood, I was thankful for the lyric that spoke so clearly to the subject of the origional music and to other things going on in my life at the time.
