This is a song I wrote a few years ago, when GOD was waking me every night at 2:22AM....It eventually led to my moving from CA to CO...long story...P.S. Sorry it's a bit lengthy.

Well it's 2:22, and Your hand gently wakes me from sleep
A new day not distant, my steps make the floor gently creak
So I make my way down stairs, grab my guitar, the sound breaks the
silence of the night.
Well this couch is so familiar at this hour of night I can say.
And the shadows on the walls dance in time with the notes as I play
A chorus of angels, join in the song, sweet incense rising to You Lord
Well the touch of Your presence brings a warmth to the chill of the night
And my spirit longs to join You and away from my body takes flight
In the flesh or the spirit, I don't really know
All I can do is surrender to my God
I surrender (repeat)
Oh Jah (repeat)
Wells it's 5:00 in the morning
the sun will be coming up soon.

Skipp_Gooley 2008-05-01 | Very nice Eric....first of all, I LOVE the quality of your voice. Harmonies are so beautiful. This builds so nicely. I love the powerful buildup of the vocals. That guitar work is so nice. Beautiful work and I believe I detect a wonderful 12 string in there somewhere. Nice work on the lyrics. Easy to see this is a very personal song to you....very well written....this was just a feast for the ears all the way through.....a fav for sure......Skipp |

cathead77 2008-06-01 | Very nice. I can relate to getting up in the wee hours to play and write. Great imagry. |
Pickinhotlix 2008-06-09 | I sure like all aspects of this. Great vocals and the music is heavenly. I too love the production. Great arrangement and harmonies. Doug |
geediane 2008-08-19 | WOW!!!! THIS IS FABULOUS!!! Gorgeous in every way, and I especially love the lyrics. WOW!! You blew me away on this! |
JoeWilsonKolb 2008-09-10 | That guitar solo sweetly adds to the surrender, as well as the violin and vocal mix...and I want a couch like yours, too, so I can write some really cool songs like this...all night long...Joe |
donnavalentine 2008-09-11 | Gorgeous piece! It's peaceful and emotive. You guys REALLY pay attention to detail in the studio and I want you to know THIS girl sees that and really appreciates it! :-) Typically, my comments include ways to make a song more commercial- I just can't help it, I think in those terms. But this one is one of those songs that is what it is and I wouldn't change a thing. It's a spirit-filled 6+ minutes of worshipful music that reveals your heart and you made me feel it with you! Nicely done. |
BrianHenryBischoff 2008-09-21 | What an outstanding tune - Music, lycics, production value... all top shelf. The message, incredable. I sure hope you are bringing this out to the masses in other ways. Very beautiful song needs to be heard by more than us here on the Ramp. |
LarryGalletta 2008-10-18 | A sensitive piece. Like the mood and sentiment. -Larry |
vicz 2008-10-28 | Interestingly, my wife (since deceased from cancer) and I used to be woken at 4:44 many nights. We used to laugh about that "blessed/mysterious" time. We love your work. You remind us of Cat Stevens (if he had only gone in THIS direction--toward the Lord). God bless you! Vic & Eva |
DiannaPaige 2008-11-21 | I agree with the previouw review...Cat Stevens...I was getting Seals and Crofts - enjoyed this... |
rathole 2008-11-30 | Man, tell Nate I'll be over for lessons--another beautiful piece--you guys are stellar performers--can't believe my radar missed these fantastic tunes---keep them coming--rathole |
LoanShark 2008-11-30 | Very lovely and nice playing. Our church was reading Acts 4:23-31 every morning as a whole. We would set our alarms for 4:30am to read these verses and pray each morning. We did this for a couple of weeks and then one morning a 5.1 earthquake occurred and we were right over the center...talk about the believers prayer! |
BridgeBetween 2008-12-22 | So So Nice...Loved it all.. melody,chords, lyric production...testimony... Thanks MIchaelg |
mlprat 2010-11-17 | Sweet music here .. so very nicely done. Mike |
