Here’s a CRAZY STORY!!!
Last night, I had a dream where Pete Shambrook and I were leading worship together at some event, and I was hanging out backstage, right after sound check, and vamping on this chorus I was writing to lead out of “Lord, I Give You My Heart”. Anyway, I woke up and had the song still in my head! I got up (4 a.m.) and scribbled it down…chords and everything….from the DREAM!
Here’s how it came out in real life…
Something UPBEAT, finally! …sorry for the dreary streak…
OK, so I KNOW your dying to know more about that GRANOLA in the last post….so, here’s the recipe!!!
This comes from my mother’s super-secret recipe stash (through way of Aaron Fox). All five of us boys grew up on this stuff, and here it is published for the first time ever:

I loved getting awesome gas milage, driving in the CARPOOL LANE all the time, and feeling all “green” and everything. The NorCal spirit so overtook me that, before long, I was even eating home-made Granola in the car…
OK, another simple one that I just can’t seem to shake… I’ve had this around for several years. I just wrote the second verse while I was recording the demo, right on the spot, and I’m pretty stoked about it! Here ya go:
