Signs

[majanthehun]

Did anyone know that the new michael w. smith song called "signs" (they play it on klove all the time) is based on Pilgrims' Progress?

just tossing this out... there might be a way to work that into the script or some such. im not entirely sure how that would work, but its an idea.

Interesting ... I'll have to check that out. Thanks! How you been, majan? I haven't seen you around lately - but maybe I haven't been poking in the right threads ... :sweat:

you've been looking in the right places.... ive just not been here. i moved in with my grandma coupla months ago to help her out (shes having health problems) and that seriously took all my free time. i only get to visit CAA twice a month or so.

its good to see you too, gypsy!

Post the lyrics? Here:

You're weighed down with regret
You can't see the road ahead
Or the burden on your back
It seems the trek will never end
The winding paths that still descend
And up above a sky washed black
You just can't bear to look at that

Chorus:
Follow the signs
Open your eyes
Read between the lines of what you see
Look into the soul of reality
Open your mind
Look at the signs
Never look back at yesterday
Keep your gaze steady on the narrow way

Now you've found the sacred tree
You kneel upon the broken wheat
You watch your burden fall away
And all the things you once sought
Now are counted less than lost
For now you see the light of day
The signs were pointing all the way


"'Signs' was a 'tough, tough lyric to write,' Michael admits. In the end, the song was co-written by his son Ryan, who took his inspiration from the book Pilgrim's Progress."
