Put together with the help of some very special friends. We do Contemporary Christian songs in a variety of genres.
Not so much a band, more like some guy behind the scenes - hence the name SGIW, which stands for Some Guy In Wisconsin...or something like that.

Story behind the song
I took the approach of standing in the shoes of a man who had never seen before and was given two marvelous gifts in one day. Thanks be to God!
Lyrics
"Siloam's Pool" I don't know if He's a prophet or a sinner or a king I wish that I could tell you but I can't explain the thing It's etched into my memory, clear and sparkling as a jewel The day I saw the ripples in Siloam's pool (instrumental interlude) The Lord and Master of the seventh day Recreated living eyes with lumps of clay He said I'd borne my blindness for the glory of the Father Then He told me I should go and wash my eyes in Siloam's water I fell upon my knees and rinsed the years of night away The light that flooded in left me without a word to say My tears flowed warm as desert streams there in the shadowed cool They fell and made the ripples in Siloam's pool The priests inquired what kind of miracle I had They questioned me, and my mother and my dad But don't they know that I am not some ordinary fool I'm the man born blind who saw the water move at Siloam's pool I don't know if He's a prophet or a poet or a king I only know that eyes born blind can now see everything His grace has touched my heart and it was washed as white as wool The day I saw the ripples in Siloam's pool The day I saw the ripples in Siloam's pool © 2003 Steve Christy
