I have walked alone for far too long
This path seems endless
Begging you to show me some compassion if you can
Feeling hopeless gasping for the air within your breath
My hands are shaking
speak to me a single word and it alone will be enough
I’m on my knees again, don’t be far from me
Do you hear my cries? They’re so familiar
I still believe, but help my unbelief
You gave me the tools to work
But not the strength to use them
“Ask and you’ll receive”
I have begged to no avail
Why does it seem like you build me up to break me down?
You’re not sadistic
Give to me a single sign and it alone will calm my fears
But how can I believe when you’re so far from me?
Do you hear my pleas? I feel I’m fading.
I will believe, but help my unbelief
Faith is but a choice to follow, no matter what the cost
Teach me to believe when I can’t see
You give a voice to the silent and a song to the deafened
You give rest to the weary and audacity to the insecure
You give faith to the skeptical and fulfillment to the wandering
You give joy to the afflicted and love to the lonely
Above all else you give yourself to the unworthy and undeserving
Love has found me broken
By faith I'll be made new
Though doubts and fears have spoken
You’ll always be the one to help me through

The brilliant musicianship or the eloquent, bold compositions alone would make this album a standout. In combination- just, WOW. The benchmark for 2018 is now very, very high. Judy Humphries

An amazing reinterpretations of old Genesis classics. Even "Invisible touch", in my opinion one of the worst songs by Genesis, in this album is a little gem. You can almost imagine Steve Hackett on classical guitar. mario1984

This is late sixties early seventies progressive psychedelic rock. Instrumental with heavy organ play.This has that organic feel that the music from the sixties, seventies had. Smoke a little pot put on the headphones close your eyes and as Mr Dobie Gray said "Get Lost in Your Rock and Roll and Drift Away".
