Dancing In The Minefields

God gave artists the ability to interpret events and emotions and display them back to us. They bring clarity and purpose. They offer perspective.

Often they give us a chance to glance back and rejoice and look forward and hope.

This does both.

This is my gratitude, for those who have set the example.

This is my prayer, for myself and others.

And I wonder - who comes to mind when you see this?

I think this is one of the most powerful songs I've ever heard...perhaps because it's a little personal. :-)

I think the subtle reference to the 23rd Psalm is BRILLIANT. This guy is a genius. It's a very complex song, lyrically, that has all kinds of meanings beneath the surface.

Music is always powerful for me, but rarely do I feel a song has to go on the top of my list. This one would make it. And the video, too.

thanks, Beth, for sharing this with us!
