about

Psalm 139: 11-12
“...even the darkness is not dark to you;
the night is bright as the day,
for darkness is as light with you."

The Psalm was the catalyst for this project in many ways. Aria's Song is based mostly out of it. But this track was actually written just 4 hours before hitting the stdio to record. I sat down to practice the other tunes, and this one came pouring out instead. I truly felt that God was gifting me note by note, word by word, this final piece of the project. It became the title track for the EP and sort of a precursor to Aria's Song (which was the first song I wrote for this album).

The Psalm truly bookended the project in a profound way. I give all credit to Him who inspired it. Dark Is Light, both the song, and the album as a whole, is about living in the hope and refuge of the Love of God which sustains all life.

lyrics

Hush, be still my heart
this violet sky is full of stars
Love, donʼt fade away
soon the night will turn to day

but thereʼs a warning in that light
a call to war is on the rise

Life is not a choice
Even the smallest one must have a voice
Fear will turn to joy
In the arms of the God who satisfies

And there is hope for our souls yet
In this, the Love that conquers death
We we are safe in this Love....
We are safe in HIS love....
