James Martin

If you take a good look at the incredible world that God has created it's kind of hard not to feel a rising sense of gratitude and joy. The world really is remarkable and filled with beauty - we only really have to take a moment to stop and notice it. This song came from one of those moments. I was walking the dog on a gloriously sunny day, blue skies, green grass, listening to a chord sequence James had sent me for a co-write, and my heart began to overflow with the beauty of the day. I began writing the chorus as I walked and the song grew from there. When I sing it I'm transported back to that beautiful day and am filled again with the delight of that moment and thankfulness to God for what is available to us, right on our doorsteps.
This song will be different every time and may not always include all the verses above. It is designed to incorporate suggestions from those gathered. Here are a few ideas that show how you could take the song in different directions: Let your kingdom come. Father, hear our prayer. How I love you, Lord. Comfort those who mourn.
