This song was written not as a typical worship or praise song, as you will be able to tell once you listen to it. My musical tastes are probably more extreme than most, as I like a lot of the harder rock and metal (Metallica, Alice In Chains, Kutless, ect...) So, this may be a little "hard" sounding for some. Also, I am not the best singer in the world, as you will hear. I apologize in advance for a few flat notes and being a little out of tune at times. If I had more time, I would redo the vocals, and add harmonies throughout, especially on the held notes. This song is meant to have drums and bass too.

I wrote this from the experiences I had in one of my darkest times in my life, during my senior year of college. Uncertainty, failure, and the feeling of being "alone" in the world all set in at once. I think a lot of us have felt this low throughout our lives, and our only strength to get through it is that of God's! With that said, I know this won't be useable in Sunday services. But I hope it connects with some, and maybe help with dealing with that struggle within! It would be great to have this song exposed especially to seekers and non-Christians, for whom do they have for that strength? We need the Holy presence to surely see us through the darkness.

I picked ideas from a few verses of scripture, including Deuteronomy 33:27 NIV (The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemy before you, saying, 'Destroy him!') and Hebrews 13:5 RSV (Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, "I will never fail you nor forsake you.").
