Story behind the song
A song written with a good friend of mine, Brenda Fortune. Brenda wrote this song when we were both on a worship team in Bremerton, WA. We were both writing songs based directly out of scripture and Brenda used Matthew 11:28-30. I thought the song was such a good priase and worship tune that I wrote several more verses for it and convinced her to come into the studio and record it. Which I'm very happy she did! Brenda graciously allowed me to include this song on "Clarity", my second project. ThanX Brenda!
