I'm a songwriter with a few tools, a love for a good hook, and the desire to make music. I have been writing for years, but when I became a Christain, suddenly almost all of my work became to, for or about God. It's not something I conciously chose, it just happened. We write what we're given I suppose.

Story behind the song
Believe it or not, this was a challenge. Lisa and I were talking about thinking outside the box. I told her to sit in front of her piano, and play any 4 notes, in any order, in any way she saw fit, and sing whatever her heart told her to. This was the result. I took it from there and played to my hearts content.
Lyrics
My Son, Lyrics-Lisa Venkatrathnam Music-Lisa Venkatrathnam,Keith Rowe My son, my son, my son I’m not ready for what’s to come My son, my son, my son Your pain is mine, my son You drank my love as a helpless babe Now I stand helpless as you walk away We should be eating Instead of grieving You clung to me as a child in my bed Must I now sleep with your memory instead? I long to hold you Do I still know you? Time is a gallow for hearts that know too much Time is a sad song for a mother’s love As you surrender Will you remember…me?
