Working notes:
Volume levels on this recording were a little stronger than I would have liked, but go with it..
Inspiration:
Fir whatever reason, the Lord put on my heart some of the brothers and sisters form the Servant Branch that I grew up knowing, and seeing go on to be with the Lord. I thought about the memories that I recalled about them, and thought - maybe I should write a song that could theoretically be played at celebration of someone's life (funeral/service).
In the same way that we use music to praise, thank, and worship God, there's also an appropriate place for music in the births, wedding, and funeral that occur during our life. So, as long as words were coming to me, I tried to capture something that could be sung at that time - not just specific to one person.
