Song waiting to be born for a year - ever since my daughter's teacher did this powerful exercise while they were studying "The Scarlet Letter." She asked the students to make and wear a cardboard letter to school symbolizing some flaw or weakness...

My log cabin in Virginia is a great place for music. My family and friends, my faith, the beauty of the mountains, and the sounds of the different instruments inspire me.

Story behind the song
This song was waiting to be born for over a year - ever since my daughter's teacher did this powerful exercise while they were studying "The Scarlet Letter." She asked the students to make and wear a cardboard letter to school symbolizing some flaw or weakness in their character...
Lyrics
The Scarlet Letter (1) I was caught in my unfaithfulness, discovered in my sin. I was guilty like the verdict said, deserving punishment. (2) Yes, I deserved to wear this letter, to declare my shameful ways, but then something so incredible - Jesus took my place! CHORUS: And He wore my scarlet letter all the way to Calvary, His scarlet blood covering my sins from A to Z. Yes, He wore my scarlet letter as He hung upon the cross. Now covered by His scarlet blood, I stand here clean and washed. (3) What can wash away my sin, nothing but the blood. What can make me whole again, nothing but the blood. (Bridge) O precious is the flow That makes me white as snow No other fount I know, nothing but the blood. (Instrumental) CHORUS: And He wore your scarlet letter all the way to Calvary. His scarlet blood covered every sin from A to Z Yes He wore your scarlet letter as He hung upon the cross. Come and be made whole again, come be clean and washed. Just bring your scarlet letter, and be covered by His blood.
