    My solo take on this song, a full-band version of which was issued a few years ago with Norwegian group One People. Lyrics written with my friend David Spangler.

    Slightly amended remix, 5 July 2010 (less compression, a few balance tweaks).

      @dilleypickle: Thanks, Dude. The theme and intent of the song was set by my colleague David Spangler.

      Lord, Let it be so! Mike, thanks for writing this song. I love it. You have touched on something so important. The world is waiting for this. Thanks for communicating through your gift eternal things.

      Brilliant take on a powerful song. I must say I really like both versions (the other version I know ie. the one for which there is a video on the WB mySpace page, with Mike on lead vocals) - each version has its own personality, though this one hits me as more personal and intimate

      I much prefer this version of it than the full-band venture for highly technical reasons which I will not be inveigled to divulge.
