Description
I wrote this song when my band seemed like it was falling apart. Everybody seemed to have lost sight of what we were really all about. Through the years our music has touched the lives of many and this song was written as a reminder to my band of what we have accomplished.
Lyrics
To Get To Know Me Too old too soon, too wise too late Just shadows of what once was great This broken road has filled the holes of heavy hearts and guilty souls I’ve had my doubts, yet made it through they say in Rome do as Romans do Lord knows I’ve tried. I must confess. He spoke to me. Here’s what he said. He said, “Be silent, my child. In time you will see That the greatest of gifts is to get to know me Carry on as you are and I’ll be by your side Just follow your heart, let my will be your guide Time keeps on drifting, the days almost done I pray then listen for the angels to come To sleep with silence and wake with your grace With no destination, I’m just livin’ on faith Too old too soon, too wise too late Just shadows of what once was great This broken road has filled the holes of heavy hearts and guilty souls He said, “Be silent, my child. In time you will see That the greatest of gifts is to get to know me Carry on as you are and I’ll be by your side Just follow your heart, let my will be your guide So just “Be silent, my child. In time you will see That the greatest of gifts is to get to know me Carry on as you are and I’ll be by your side Just follow your heart, let my will be your guide Amen
