about

A couple years back i raffled off one of my favorite snare drums in a fundraiser to get back to Uganda. It was my snare that i got for playing with Demon Hunter, and i hated seeing it go. The winner of the drum was a lovely young lady named Jaklyn. I now consider Jaklyn and her family to be close friends. It's funny the things that bring people together in this crazy life. It feels good to know that my drum is still in the family! Last year Jaklyn's father passed away. I only wish i could have met him. I wrote this song for Jaklyn and her family. It really meant a lot for me to give this to them, and it ranks as one of the more important songs that i've written for a friend. We love you guys. Feelings of loneliness and loss are real, but what shines even brighter is the truth that we are loved, and that we have friends who are there for us. That is a reality, even if it doesn't always feel like it is.That strength that keeps us going in the worst of times, it is most definitely a strength that is bigger than us. Thank God for that.

lyrics

"To the un-defiled and aching child, born to walk this lonely mile a stone by stone. Let me reconcile you near to me, as everyone will surely bleed, but none alone."
