Non-traditional, unique... hmm, Gospel? ... No, FUSION, a High Prairie-High Power mix: Americana Folk Gospel ... Add strings, dolorous slide, back-up singers... "A holy Gaw-od... A holy Gaw-od"... Yes, this could be arranged. My goal, as a lyricist, is to get someone to play it... **All rights reserved**... Copywrite City... No apologies for my singing... Pavarotti I'm not! 😂

“A Holy God”

The fog outside my window reminds me of buffalo...
A time more innocent, with more prairie and less cement

I don't know what I can do, to make this world more true
When I peek into this fog, I see His face, a holy God

Ridin' out of ol' Cheyenne, I left a letter on the bedstand
You'll know just what it says, it may take time, a pint of red

It's Easter now, I'm damn depressed… Car won't start, no Sunday's Best
So I'll ride before the dawn, upon a horse, a church of one

Fumaroles of equine breath, day’s first light, no sign of death
When I peek into this fog, I see His face, a holy God

We'll set a card game up, right soon… Bring that deck that shows Miss June
Quarter ante, Jacks are wild… We’ll get a sitter for your child

Wind is blowing' from the north… It’s after midnight on this porch
Sometimes I sit until the dawn, wondrin' if I'm right or wrong

Fumaroles of equine breath, day’s first light, no sign of death
When I peek into this fog, I see His face, a holy God

Smell of leather, cows come home… They leave the draws when it gets cold
When I peek into this fog, I see His face, a holy God

I see His face, a holy God
