All From You

This isn't the first song I wrote. I think it was the third. But it was the first that went all the way to a recording (much thanks to Sherry Grey and Paul Rydell).

"All From You" is supposed to be a driving rock sort of song pushed by electric guitars, but all we had was a piano and an acoustic guitar. I think we made it too slow in the recording too -- it should be about 130.

I consider it a celebration song. It's for God and it's about God but it's dedicated, with all my love, to my three kids: Braden, Kaelly, and Georgia.
