Duration: P00H04M37S
Description: This song is me drawing a line between a remnant plant-community and the remnant biblical community that the prophets talk about. All going well I'm now part of that so many years later. Is it inherited? Is it chosen? Is it both? does it matter?

This song is me drawing a line between a remnant plant-community and the remnant biblical community that the prophets talk about. All going well I'm now part of that so many years later. Is it inherited? Is it chosen? Is it both? does it matter?

lyrics

What is this life that I've been stitched into?
What is this ancient inheritance?
What is this branch that I've been grafted to?
These stakes to which I'm held account?

Is this something that I've been born into?
Maybe a product of my choice?
Either way is unavoidably true,
Relentless hound insistent voice.

I am held here, I've been joined
To a history, so much beyond me.
I've been grafted into this vine,
part of a remnant surviving through time

We seem to fall or fail at every step,
as if we never meet the grade
And yet the bearing never seems to change
Nor does assistance seem to fade

I've been really loving this album- it's really worth a listen if you're looking for something. I LOVE the way he pans and eq's his guitar. Full sounding guitars, really mellow and warm vocals. Mint. Follower

I'm really biased here- This is another awesome bunch of musos that I'm involved with. They let me lose in recording and producing the first album. Have a listen to some dub-style entertainment! Follower
