Another one I play almost every day at the cancer center…

Written in memory of Dr. Jonah Kule, who lost his life serving others in the Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak, November 2007.

Blessings,

You didn't set out to someday face Ebola;
you didn't aspire to draw your dying breath
gasping the words that spoke your last desire:
No one should die an Ebola death.

A Ugandan born to tend the sick in Uganda,
returning to the region of your birth,
shunning the wealth normally due a doctor,
you made a choice that multiplied your worth.

Jonah we remember you:
Your words still sound in our ears;
Your footprints mark your way from place to place.
Your hands still bind our wounds;
Your faith still calms our fears.
When we close our eyes, we see the light in your face.

Word came of a patient down with fever.
You went to his home to tend him at his bed.
In compassion you reached to help to turn him over.
Without any gloves, the deadly virus spread.

Jonah we remember you:
Your words still sound in our ears;
Your footprints mark your way from place to place.
Your hands still bind our wounds;
Your faith still calms our fears.
When we close our eyes, we see the light in your face.

You didn't set out to someday face Ebola,
but it didn't put out the light in your face,
it didn't put out the light in your face,
we remember the light in your face.

I play this piece when I need to pray urgently and fervently, but don’t have any words. I hope it is somehow helpful to you.

Here is another piece that I play often at the cancer center. I’m almost embarrassed by how simple it is, yet when I play it, I invariably have people stop and listen.

This recording is of the very first time I played it – I had gotten the idea and messed around with it a few minutes and then recorded it (so I wouldn’t forget it).

Enjoy!

I added another new piece to the site today, called Paris, 2015. The musical idea came to me years ago after watching the film Life is Beautiful (you can probably see why). When I finally got to working on the recording, I decided I wanted to offer it in memory of the 2015 Paris attacks.

May you feel held, comforted, and nurtured by God.

I added a new piece to the site today, called Decisions, Indecisions; it is in the playlist on the Home page, where you will find more about this site. I hope you like it.

Please consider subscribing to the site if you want to be notified when I add new content.

Enjoy!

I added a new piece today, Prairie Variations, one of my personal favorites. I also tweaked the overall piano sound across all the music – hopefully it all sounds a bit better now.

Enjoy!
