Don Moen was the very first christian musician I listened to....even before I became a christian. I can still vaguely recall the days of secretly popping in my brother's Don Moen cd into the player when he's not around at home. (secretly cause I felt it would be embarrasing to let him know that I'm listening to his christian albums heh =S)
But the fact was, I liked it alot....finding myself humming to the tunes without really knowing what it was talking about. And I suppose those were some of the seeds planted along the way.
Simple heart and simple days it was. Sigh...I know things will never be the same again, in this changing world. But I know my heart still can. Somehow....my heart has been complicated within along the way....and I long for that simplicity once again.
...You know how much my heart has been calloused and dampened...and the relenting of a trusting heart to You, has been complicated. So please....make the way.

The old broken melody, blowing through the trees of Eden.
They say the heart of man is too far gone to save... yet in the quaint humdums of the neighbourhood, in the midst of gains and losses, joys and heartaches, pleasure and pain, friends and foes, battles lost and won, you can just hear that quiet whisper, of an amazing grace....upon this unworthy life.
