One fingerstyle pass of my Vista HD-28 (Mic/Direct and stereo chorus hard panned. I did all of the background vocals, though I swear I hear some that I didn't record. Maybe a little help from angelic choir? Drums and Bass. Remixed 2020

This is Jeff Kratzman's Christian Page. I have two categories one for Secular and one for Christian songs. I've had a lifelong relationship with Christ and not to explore the spiritual side in music, would be foolish. I hope you enjoy the songs and take the time to follow-up on some of the Bible verses that inspired the songs. I welcome all feedback, but unpleasantness will just be deleted. This isn't a forum for theological debate. If you don't want to listen to Christian Music, try the Jeff Kratzman - Songs link. There's another 50 songs there.

Story behind the song
I swear sometimes I am God's absolutely slowest learner. While God is endlessly patient, I can see him shaking his head when it comes to me. I spent so much of my life pursing what I 'wanted' and confusing it with what I 'needed'.
Lyrics
1. Im sorry for my dirty lazy hands I do my best but conscious reprimands I should try harder, but I cant with my own strength Which is the point of You inside of me I try not to confuse what I want With what I need Something I should have learned in my youth A pretty lie or an ugly truth? 2. You cant make an alter of the past You cant worship at the shrine of what might have been No matter how hard you pray You cant change a minute of yesterday 3. I tried, I failed and I fell again To tired to continue losing the same fight Shouting and railing against the night For its shallow lack of substance and light 4. How many times have You just shook your head Stating He still doesnt get it? "Put the facts right in front of you But you still cant fathom the truth"
