So… I wrote a song today. It may have come from all my recent feeling of helplessness with all the craziness in the middle east. All those folks killing each other and vowing to not stop till the last one of the other guys is dead. All the hatred. It’s so so crazy. And it makes me wish God would just end it sometimes. All the stuff with the gay movement and all kinda stuff going on now where we are constantly moving away from God… it’s just crazy. (Have I mentioned, I think it’s crazy?)

So, I think that’s where this song came from.

Here’s the MP3 … lyrics below…

Longing

One day this will all be over, this stuff that we call history

And all that seems important just won’t matter anymore

How I long to get there, and call this life my yesterday

Leave behind the pain and doubt – I long for so much more

I’m longing for the day

chorus

When all I need to know is that you love me

And all my pain is dead and gone

And all I ever thought was gain, is quickly put to shame

By the life I’m longing for

I’m pretty good at getting, the most out of my life today

The bad can have less impact, when you focus on the good

But sometimes it’s too much for me, the evil and the selfish way

We live today together… I long for so much more

I’m longing for the day

bridge:

Never again will pain have it’s way

Death will have no sway

Sorrow’s gone away

Cause this is the day
