The lead track on my last album is called “Feel the Sun.”  I wrote it at time when I was coping with deep loss, alongside dealing with a very distressing situation that spanned months.  I was exhausted and depleted.  Time spent in spiritual direction was one of my key lifelines, and I have been blessed with a very skilled director.  She encouraged me along the path of healing with much wisdom and, at times, simple recommendations such as to get out in the sun again.  This song is about hope on the path of self-revival.  You can listen to “Feel the Sun” by using the MUSIC page of this website.  It’s the first track.  May you be inspired!

Collecting all my tears for you

Cause I know you’ll know what to do

When I run to blue

When I run to blue

 

Funny how I’m not to see

The way the roots grow underneath

When I roll on green

When I roll on green

 

Oh, all I want to do

Is feel the sun on my face again

And oh, what keeps me holdin’ on

Is trusting it comes round again

 

Trying to choose good things to wed

Appreciating all you’ve said

When I pull on red

When I pull on red

 

I close my eyes to see the light

And mediate on all that’s right

When I dream to white

And I dream to white

 

Oh, all I want to do

Is feel the sun on my face again

And oh, what keeps me holdin’ on

Is trusting it comes round again

 

Working on a peace that lasts

Practicing in overcast

And this too shall pass

 

Oh, all I want to do

Is feel the sun on my face again

And oh, what keeps me holdin’ on

Is trusting it comes round again

 

Oh, all I want to do

Is feel the sun on my face again

And oh, what keeps me holdin’ on

Is trusting it comes round again
