Savvy? =D I guess I could send guitar chords (which is basically what all my worship music consists of, plus melody line sometimes) but unless you play piano from a fake book (or if you play guitar) that wouldn’t help. So I guess I’ll have to try doing a video instead.

*tries to sing to the tune of “how great the Father’s love for us”* hehe…doesn’t quite work.

As far as the ’cause, I agree. That’s why people can get away with singing “I ain’t nothing but a hound dog” and have it sound decent.

Um, if it helps any, the intro, the “bridge”, the filler and the ending are all kinda based off of the same pattern which sounds really quite similar to the intro of How Deep the Father’s Love because I pretty much stole it from there even though I did make some changes.

Anyway, glad you like it. I showed it to my dad last night and we were talking about the symbolism of “ashes of a soul” and I was realizing that it actually wasn’t that great of a metaphor if you play it out all the way. So I’ve still got to think about that. And you know what’s funny…I thought about you not liking the shortened “’cause” every time I wrote it down. My defense: it’s a song, meant to be sung, not read, therefore…it sounds better than it looks. In my most humble opinion. =)

I can feel the rhythm of this and what I wouldn’t give to hear it put to music. Amazing, amazing job. The rhyming, the rhythm, and the message are supurb. I wish you could find a way to post you performing this or at least post the sheet music so I could play it myself or something! *sigh*
