The 4th of July 1993, on the way back to San Jose, aboard a 747, I was thumbing through a dictionary when I came upon the word Emissary. "A messenger sent on a mission." Hmm. A name for a band? Maybe. So with Christ in mind, (I had been reading and meditating on The Word for months prior) I grabbed a pen. Meditating on the "Rock of my Salvation" and the stone that had been rolled away to reveal that Christ had risen, blended in my mind. Fifteen minutes later I had written a rock song that looked like this.... 

EMISSARY 

Standin on top of a mountain 
Lookin down on this town 
Ridin in after midnite 
When theres no one else around 
Rockin this town like a bolt of lightning 
And were gonna roll away like thunder 
You aint gonna know our mission baby 
Or what ROCK we crawled out from under ..YEAH 

Weve got a message 
And were gonna DELIVER 
Yeah weve got a message baby 
And were gonna DELIVER 
Listen closely 
To what we say 
The time has come to choose direction 
And the ROCK is gonna show you the way 

LEAD GUITAR 

Drinkin from the fountain 
Take a good look around 
See the flash of WHITE LIGHT 
Then listen for the sound 
Rockin this town like a bolt of lightning 
And were gonna roll away like thunder 
You aint gonna know what hit ya baby 
Or what kind of spell your under..
