about

Written for Lucas Hicks, a friend who died after a long battle with cancer. It’s inspired by the gifts he gave to our music community; he died before we were able to play him this song.

lyrics

Take it easy and slow, in these short days, as you best know
All the rivers and gentle pines are whispering sure and quiet
You are a shining light, a shining light

I wonder with all my heart where love goes when times get hard
Does it wander and does it roam ’til it finds in you a home
You are a shining light, a shining light
When the moment gets dark and heavy you know you are not alone
You are a shining light

Take your troubles and take your trials; ride that train babe, slow and wild
You’re a rocket, a gleaming star, singing hymns in a one man choir
You are a shining light, a shining light
When the moment gets dark and heavy you know you are not alone
You are a shining light
Shine on my friend
