Hi, my name is Kathy. I'm a Christian singer/songwriter and guitar player. My style is typically folk-rock. Please have a listen and share your comments.
It seems that music has always been an integral part of my life. One of my brothers was a drummer who played in several rock and roll bands while I was growing up, so I got an early start with my music education. This experience gave me a personal desire to learn how to play the guitar and write songs.

Story behind the song
Many who live in a restless, materialistic society find themselves being carried away with the madness. There seems to be an endless drive for more..."He who dies with the most toys wins" is the mentality. But this often comes at great personal expense and can leave one feeling empty and dissatisfied. Jesus invites all who labor and are heavy laden to come and find rest in Him. (Matthew 11:28-30)
Lyrics
Run verse 1: He's runnin' down the road in the state of confusion trying hard to make it to the top of the hill This race is gettin old and he's certainly losin' it doesn't seem to matter, tell me, is he runnin' still? chorus: Run boy, run Watcha runnin' from? Run boy, run On, run! verse 2: He's old at 24 pursuin' dreams of illusion placin' top priority on the dollar bill His wife and kids are cryin' from neglect and abusin' it doesn't seem to matter, tell me, is he runnin' still? (chorus) Bridge: Come unto Me All ye that labor and are heavy laden Come unto Me All ye that labor and I will give you rest For My yoke is easy And My burden is light Come unto Me All ye that labor And are heavy laden verse 3 He's gonna lose it all, it isn't so amusin' he feels the emptiness inside, money couldn't fill Messiah's love could heal him, he's refusin' it doesn't seem to matter, tell me, is he runnin' still? (chorus)
