MY SONG OF THE WEEK: “Keep Sharing the Crayons”— A passion piece inspired by observing fellowship amongst diverse people—“The Grand Company, No more missing harmony.” Everyone—black, white, brown, old, young, big, small—brings something to this big table called life, and it’s a gift to be handed even the tiniest role in God’s Kingdom called Earth.
The line “And you know the difference, it won’t wash away…” was inspired by the sidewalk chalk art scene with Dick Van Dyke in the film “Mary Poppins.
”
The music bed (mixed by Tim Breon) is influenced by the 80s synth-pop band New Musik, even though I went into a scruffier sound than what Tony Mansfield might’ve done.
Dedicated to activists and protest sign-makers everywhere.
