From the CD Set Me Free
I say, “Spirit, show me where to be.” I say, “Spirit, set me free.”
I’m walking down the sidewalk. I pop into a grocery store.
I talk with the cashier I meet, and when I leave I hold the door
for a woman and her baby. I give a friendly pat.
He smiles and giggles at me and I say, “Thanks for that!”
What can I do for love today? What can I do for you?
Where would you have me walk to listen, smile or talk…
do whatever to convey the pure, precious ways of love?
I’m driving down the highway, see a deer grazing on the grass.
I thank it for the service it gives, and bless it as I pass.
Then, I hear an ambulance. I check in with the guiding light above, and in an instant I hear, “Just send love!”
What can I do for love today? Oh tell me, what can I do for you?
Where would you have me walk to listen, smile or talk…
do whatever to convey the pure, precious ways of love?
And I say, “Spirit, please use me.” I say, “Spirit, anyway you see.”
I say, “Spirit, show me where to be.” I say, “Spirit, set me free.”

Insider Notes
When in the studio this song rewrote itself with a fun beat box rhythm at the core of it. The result is a total remodel making it much more fun, hip and alive!
As the first song on the Set Me Free CD, it sets the stage for an exhilarating ride of heart opening music! For me personally, it served as a catalyst to let go, trust my heart, and see a broader vision. On yet another level, the experience set me free. =] Enjoy the groove, the harmonies and the images it evokes.
