My new song, “Even the Skies,” is officially out now.
This release is deeply personal to me. I wrote it during one of the hardest and holiest moments I have ever walked through–staying by my friend Kathy’s side as she finished her battle with cancer and went to heaven.
The first verse came to me while I was driving to her hospice center in the rain the night before she passed:
“Even the skies have tears…”
It felt like the earth itself was grieving.
And then, after she passed, something remarkable happened. The storm cleared. The skies opened. There was a full moon visible by stunning clouds that parted. The next day we had one of the most beautiful sunsets I had seen in a long time. It felt like the storm had passed both literally and figuratively.
That is the heart behind this song.
“Even the Skies” is about grief, love, and the strange beauty that can meet us in the middle of heartbreak. It is a song for anyone who has had to say goodbye to someone they love and keep going with a tender heart.
