Born an raised in Santa Barbara, CA I have been writing and performing for over 25 years. I consider my music Alt-Country Folk & Blues. You may also find me at
I read a trillogy called conversations with God, this helped inspire this song along with changing my view of humanity.
Lyrics
INTO THIS WORLD
I'LL TAKE THE WOMAN YOU TAKE THE GOLD
I TRUST YOU'LL DIVIDE IT BETWEEN US
THIS SHIP WAS CARRING MORE THAT IT SHOULD HOLD
NOW IT'S BREAKING UP ON THE REEF
THE MAST CAME DOWN WITH A THUNDRUS CRASH
THE CANNONS ROLLED IN BETWEEN US
MY LEGS WERE CRUSHED AS I YELLED SAVE YOURSELF
I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN THE NEXT TIME AROUND
STILL I GO OH OH OH INTO THE STORM FOR YOUR LOVE
STILL I GO OH OH OH INTO THE STORM INTO THE STORM FOR YOUR LOVE
THEY CAME FROM THE OLD WORLD ON SHIPS THAT THEY CALLED
THE NINA, PINTA AND SANTA MARIA
TO SETTLE THESE LANDS IN THE SAVEGES HANDS
AND TEACH US HOW TO SURVIVE
BUT THEY CAME AND THEY CAME AND THEY NEVER LET UP
CLAIMING EVERYTHING AND PREACHING THE BIBLE
ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOR RIGHT NOW
OR YOUR LIVES WON'T MATTER TO YOU ANYHOW
STILL I GO OH OH OH INTO THIS WORLD FOR YOUR LOVE
STILL I GO OH OH OH INTO THIS WORLD INTO THIS WORLD INTO THIS WORLD FOR YOUR LOVE
AND WHEN I GO, I GO HOME TO THE MAKER AND I'M ALWAYS TAKEN IN
NO JUDGEMENT NO FEAR NO EXPLANATIONS ONLY LOVE LIVING HERE
STRONG IS THE WOMAN THAT LOVES ME
HUMBLE IS THE MAN WHO WON'T BOAST
BLESSED ARE ALL OF THE CHILDREN
WHO GROW UP NEVER KNOWING A GOAST
SO FIND YOUR OWN SAFE HARBOR
TAKE SHELTER UNDER THE SHADE
SEARCH YOUR HEART FOR THE ANSWERS
TO DECISIONS THAT HAVE TO BE MADE
WHEN YOU GO, ……INTO THIS WORLD FOR YOUR LOVE
WHEN YOU GO, ……INTO THIS WORLD INTO THIS WORLD FOR YOUR LOVE.
