This song is about the evidence of God's hands in nature and how we are blinded by the lie of the devil.

It's just me, myself, and I! A band would be nice.... but I could be a single artist too... wherever God leads I guess:)
Hi! My name is Laura Dillon. I'm a singer/songwriter in Tucson, Arizona looking for ears who will listen to the message that I have to share. Most of my songs are centered on Jesus Christ and the Word of God. My goal is to touch people's lives and bless them with the message that God has given me to share. Right now I'm looking for ways to get there, but being a full time college student time and money is tight. But regardless of circumstances, I trust that God will help me and lead me and that His Will will be done!

Story behind the song
How can anyone look at nature and say there is no God? One day during the summer, 2 years ago I asked my youth leader Will a question along the lines of, "How can God condemn a person that has never learned about Jesus?" He really explained this to me. I wish I could explain it like he did! One thing he told me was that evidence of God is everywhere, and if someone seeks out God he will find Him. The Bible also says that no man will have an excuse or something like that. So a few days later I was in my room at my computer with the lights off and it started to rain. I don't know about you, but I love being in my room on a dark evening with my windows propped open... you can hear the wind and the rain surrounding you.. it's just so relaxing! It makes me want to sing! Lol...anyway...I felt inspired to write about God and nature so I just began to sing and type along as I went. Songwriting moments like this are very magical for me, and the feelings and memories of the moment are preserved in the song. This is one reason why it's so hard to rewrite songs!! Yes... I know I'm stubborn.. :P Anyway, I hope you enjoy the song.
Lyrics
The Lie (c)2002 Words and Music by Laura Dillon Watch the wind blow through the trees Listen to the falling leaves Feel them crumble in your fingers Back to dust as it once began Lie down in the grassy fields Watch the sun set See the stars reveal themselves And the moon lighting the night Touch the rain falling from above Dance in its wondrous beauty Watch as it gives life to the flowers To the trees, the grass, and the earth Chorus: Now please won’t you tell me its all a lie! Don’t believe we came from nothing That we’ll just live and die! Look around you, there is an answer! Seek and you will find! Stop running away from the truth Cause you’re going straight for the lie! Nature is God’s creation From the beginning of time He’s your Father, your Creator To deny him is a crime! Just take a look anywhere around you Its not hard to see God’s fingerprints are evident In all, in everything! Chorus Dear friend, you must believe me I trick you not I trick you not Please don’t let me prove you wrong In the end! In the end! Chorus

Very nice. And, I agree. God's presence is evident everywhere and in everything. Great job.
