And 2 months later...

I haven't realized that it's been 2 months since I last posted. So much has went on and time has really flown by. So I guess it's about time I update my virtual "diary" and keep things jotted down on my online ink and paper.

Since music is what fills my life mostly, I'll begin and finish with this topic. On October 29, we played our debut show in downtown Asheville. It was quite a fun experience. We had a great time and I am thankful for everyone who came out and supported us. It seriously meant a lot. You can check out some of the footage of the show as well as some other entertaining clips at http://www.youtube.com/user/piedmontmusic .

The very next weekend we traveled back to Manchester, KY with Campus Crusade to minister to the locals there and give out coats and blankets. Again, like last year, this weekend rocked my world and shook up my life. These people are hurting so much. They would walk into the warehouse where we were and sit down with us as we explained to them our purpose for being there. We were there to share the love of God. As we loved on these people, some would seem to 'zone-out' while others would tear up and fight back their weeping. I immediately channeled this into a song. I want to be able to help out everyone who walked through that door with despair on their faces. With water in their eyes, where do I turn? It gets me down when I know that I can't save them. But, even though I'm not their savior, I know the answer and the hope that can heal their broken hearts. Let salvation carry you home. There is love for them. There is love for you.

We're going to be recording more on the album in a couple of weeks. Keep your ears peeled (??) for any updates about where you can get it.

So, 2 months later....here I am. Ready for what's next, a changed soul.

There Is Love For You

So many people/So many broken

Abandoned, forgotton/Left without hope

There are so many hurting/So many loved ones

They've been beaten down/Can't stand to fight it

There is only one answer

There is only one hope

When you're lost with no place to go

There is love for you

Yes, enough for you

Let it come--lay your burdens down

It can heal the wounds in your broken heart

Let it comfort you

Let it come to you

Oh, let love make your life brand new

There is love for you

I've seen so many people/Water in their eyes

Despair on their faces/The same on mine

So where do I turn to?/How can I save them?

Oh I'm not a Savior/I can't save myself

Now I know there's an answer

I know there's a hope

Salvation's right here

Let it carry you home
