Solo with piano

lyrics

Backstage, I cross the middle ground
Curtain up, house lights down
I sing these love songs, I try to pass my heart around
And afterwards
Some people say they thought I tried to put them down
They feel so bad
It does not matter what I say
I hope tomorrow they have a better day
They seem so lost
They need release
They need your strong love and your strange peace

Reporters question me, is this a new direction for the young
How lamb like their faces
But how snake like their tongues
They quote me perfectly
They rewrite every word I speak
And go away convinced we're all just Jesus freaks
I feel so good
It does not matter what they say
I hope tomorrow that they have a be', a better day

We're all so lost
We need release
We need your strong love and your strange peace
Please give us your strong love and your strange peace
We need your strong love and your strange peace

Find Me In These Fields [remastered & re-imagined]
by Phil Keaggy - Deluxe Studio vocal albums

supported by 9 fans who also own “Strong Love, Strange Peace”

"Find Me in These Fields" was one of Phil's releases where I sensed he was free to be himself, and that came on strong in every tune. As a guitar player I was inspired, and as a father with a young son "Gentle & Strong" tugged every heart string. Jon Stout
