RADIO VOLUME 2nd SONG LIST and LYRICS:
Best Is Yet :
In your eyes, no silver screen, from the heart of this lonely dream I see the course of our freedom.
Can't you see the course of our freedom? You are the one who showed me the way to leave behind
A world that has lost its way, to find the course of our freedom. Can't you see the course of our freedom?
The worse things get, the worst is yet to come. The better life gets, the best is yet to come.
In our eyes, we share this dream, a land of plenty and true equality. That's the course of our freedom.
Can't you see the course of our freedom? You are the hope I have for that day, a world to come
Not so far away. The course of our freedom. Can't you see the course of our freedom.
The worse things get, the worst is yet to come. The better life gets, the best is yet to come.
Eye to eye we stand resolute to fulfill our pledge, there can be no substitute.
The course of our freedom. Can't you see the course of our freedom?
World At Peace :
Come dance with me, with me where I see. Come I'll show you closer the world we need.
And we will laugh, laugh together, we will surely find that peace. No, don't turn back
The hour is nearing when morning finds its strength. We will find ourselves,
We will know our real selves, we will find ourselves in a world at peace.
Come, let's talk about it, let us reason together this time. Come, I'll show you closer
The world that is yours and mine. And we will dance, dance together,
We will surely find good peace. No, don't run back, the hour is nearing
When morning finds its strength. We will find ourselves, we will know our real selves.
We will find ourselves in a world at peace.
Did Not Know Your Name :
Had I known, had they said, the lights would not be turning red.
Had we heard, had they tried, the world would not be filled with lies.
When they said to me: "All is safe, be free," I believed them in my heart.
I did not know your name O Lord when they hid behind those lies.
We never learned your name O Lord when all the innocent died.
Had I known, had they not lied, I would not risk innocent lives.
Had we heard, had they said, millions would not now be dead.
When they said to me: "All is safe, be free," I believed them in my heart.
We did not know your name O Lord when they taught all those lies.
We did not learn your name O Lord when all the innocent died.
We did not hear your name O Lord when they took from us their lives.
We never learned your name O Lord when they stole from us the time.
Windmill :
The windmill turns, this world moves on. You need to obey the Truth to be in the real song.
The windmill turns, and the world moves on. Got to do what it takes to be in the only song.
The earth keeps turning in that wheel in the sky. The Hand that molds the universe,
The galaxy, the stars, and you and I. Unseen, yet not forgotten by your friends.
Draw us closer to you, before you bring the end.
The windmill turns, this world moves on. You must obey the Truth to be in the real song.
The windmill turns, this world is passing on. Got to do what it takes to be in the only song.
Sometimes you must do the things you don't want to, you stand your ground and fight like a man,
To restore integrity, be gritty for His plan. There is time to resist the world and take that stand.
The winds of time are changing. Yet your laws remain the same. "Whether we like it or not
We will obey, that it will go well for us," that is the promise you made.
Sacred:
Is anything sacred, anything at all to you? Is anything sacred, tell me true?
What can we do? What will you see through? Is anything sacred to you?
Red, white, and blue, is anything sacred to you? How far have we gone?
How far we turned so wrong. We have forgotten your commands,
We near the end of our land if we don't turn back, is there anything sacred left?
There are two cities in my memories. Tossed to the breeze, the big easy.
Two cities in my memories. When will we remember Thee?
Is anything sacred, anything at all to you? Red, white, and blue,
Is there anything sacred to you? What is left of your promises
That scaled the wall of justice? What is sacred of your "liberty"
That took from me my babies. Worse than slavery.
Lightning :
In a brief glance the night is pierced. And for a moment in time I see clear.
It's like lightning, the night can be frightening. As a camera flash in the dark
We see the right path to walk. But when the time comes, we wake for morning light.
Our courage beside us, we will have made it through the night. When the time comes,
Our steps make secure. We did not fall for idols. No lies did we procure.
In a brief glance, the next step is clear. There is no time to waste, the end draws near.
It's like thunder, the sound rushes to my ear. It breaks the veil of silence
They wanted none to hear.
Let Love Abide :
"Love is patient, love is kind," but that is when things are going fine.
Not when it is the end of an age, when all the world is passing away.
Make the agreement, take that step. Remember to make no regrets.
Stay on the side that is always right. It is time to let your love abide.
Do not gamble, do not shun the test. The one who does not sin has no regrets.
Remain on the path you know to be the best. A stronger love will help put it to rest.
"Love is patient, love is kind," but things are different at this time.
A world that has forgotten what is love: "To obey the laws from above."
Let your love abide. Time to let your love abide.
Conch :
I lift the hardness of the narrow path, and press it to my ear.
As the waves rush upon me now, from distant land I hear,
One kingdom of fools washed away by the works of your hands.
And "in the twilight's last gleaming" you draw near, home at last.
"In God we trust." Wouldn't you like to leave this world behind?
Wouldn't you like to break free from all these changes?
We can begin, we can build what they can't tare down.
We can begin, there's no time to be turning back.
Instead of thorns, the cypress shall grow, as an everlasting sign
In memory of your love. Instead of thorns, the myrtle shall remain.
And your will will be made plain.
No Cartoons :
I don't want to be a cartoon on the radio. I want my songs to live and grow.
I don't want to be a cartoon on the radio. Scatter this seed to the wind, let it grow.
I'm letting go, I want the radio to know, there's a much bigger show.
The reason is not from below. But from above, a message of love,
One with conditions that define "good intentions."
I don't want to be a cartoon on the radio. I want my songs to live and grow.
I don't want to be a cartoon on the radio. Scatter the seed to shatter their blow.
I'm letting go, so the world will know, there are those who do show, the way home.
The words of the sages passed through the ages preserve the conditions
That define "good intentions."
O Precious Days :
The chill of November, rice in the air. The fire's last ember, they play without care.
"Peace" of mere words, not a way of living, stolen embraces, love for the shillings.
Rings on their fingers, diamonds in the earth. Untamed emotions, they have lost all their worth.
Words for excuses, not words of the Truth. If only she could make it back to her youth.
O precious days, why did you go and throw it all away? O precious days,
Why did you not watch the things you say? O precious days, when will you heed the things you pray?
O precious days, why did you throw it all away on yourself? The cold of December, snow on the ground.
Echoes remain, I can hear the sound of days now passed, when the fires did rage in the hearts of men
Like the words of a sage. We trek through the frost and snow covered yard,
That conceals the path others have gone. We cling to the Truth and press onward,
The days growing short, the end won't be long.
Ain't Life Strange :
Sometimes you lose everything before you see what you had to lose.
Seems like we lose our eyes before we see just how blind we were.
Now I believe you are the one I am looking for. Ain't life strange?
Sometimes we lose our dreams before we find our dreams are worth living for.
I don't know why the world lost its way before we will return to the light of day.
Now I know you are the one I am living for. Ain't life strange?
It is two steps forward and one step back, and I lost track of the times
I kept losing track. From those footsteps and lies that have turned so fast,
Footsteps and lies, time to forget the past. Leaves change and so did I,
Tossed to the wind until your Truth caught my eye. You cannot be but Lone Being,
From that fact, all became clear with meaning. I know it is true,
In the end there is only you.
American Faith :
American faith, eye to eye, face to face. American faith, it is time to run the race.
American faith, remember the Revolution. American faith, where is our Constitution?
Old glory battle worn, our flag waves ripped and torn. The consequence of that storm,
But they did not learn. When will come your turn? For that day I yearn.
When all will know and see what it means to be real free.
American faith, eye to eye, face to face. American faith, it is time to run the race.
American faith, here and then, real love and grace. American faith, nothing can take her place.
Red, white, and blue will you be true? Red stripes became their blood, at the alter of no love.
The white lines of innocence lost, dirtied by their 'courts.' The blue and stars of service
Satiated by wrongful purpose. Red, white, and blue, when will you be true?

Studio Notes:
11/3/18: Back to work in studio with the producer, John. He did excellent on drums for Best Is Yet today. We think this CD, Radio Volume 2nd, will be another good project. It will be 12 songs like the prior CD. It should be finished in a couple months.
11/10/18: Recorded American Faith today. We both like the way the music came out for it. John's drumming was good as usual. He convinced me to keep some of the bass lines I played, and also to add the piano. He likes the patriotic theme of the song. My version of country music.
11/17/18: Today's song mixed rock, jazz, blues, and pop. John was a help in the mixes and convinced me to keep the bass line I wrote for the song, it is called O Precious Days. Typically I use a gain channel for lead guitar but today we selected natural wood tone for its softer bluesy side.
11/24/18: Today was No Cartoons day. I knew John would get the drums right for it and he did. We both had fun recording this song. It is my way of both telling off bad radio, and encouraging them to play Truth on the radio.
12/4/18: Saturday we recorded Ain't Life Strange. John played great on drums. I like the song, and he said it is "his favorite on this CD so far." I am having problems downloading/playing it from the web site after I tested and posted it. It played fine on my media player. But from this web site all that shows up is gibberish letterings, no sound. It may only be doing that to my computer, I will find out. See my note about this and photograph proof of that hacking of my song at my NEWS AND NOTES web page at the bottom of this page.
12/15/18: Was off from studio last week. I recorded 2 songs today, Sacred and Lightning. John really likes Sacred. I thought he might not. It is a prayer to God and a social commentary to America, continuing the patriotic and Pro-Life themes on this CD. Lightning is also a prayer and a song about prayer. The producer likes both, but as I said, he especially likes Sacred. I had written piano for it, but the overlays of guitar, bass, drums had a unique sound that lost something when the piano was recorded today, so we decided not to use the piano part. I uploaded the songs, and when I tried to play them from this site all that I get is text of gibberish on my home computer, not sound. See earlier note on 12/4/18.
12/22/18: Recorded Conch today. Made it slightly shorter, still a 4 minute song. I had John try out drums to it, which I have not recorded before for this song, and he did great. I like his feel for the song. I will put my longer note about Conch on my News And Notes page.
1/12/19: Two weeks ago I recorded all the music for World At Peace and Did Not Know Your Name with John. He saved them. I did not sing vocals at that time because I was recovering from a head cold, and had no voice. Today I thought we would finish the vocals to those tracks. But for some reason I felt to bring my guitar, amp, etc. Thankfully I did, because the first thing John the producer told me today was: "Brian, I am sorry. Somehow your last two songs we did got deleted. I do not know how it happened. But I lost a couple of my own demos also." So we calmly re-recorded those two songs today, and one of them came out clearly better. See my longer note I will post at my News And Notes page. Did Not Know Your Name is done on acoustic guitar and also electric. I originally wrote it as a piano song. But I altered it to be more guitar. Piano is still on it. John liked both songs today, but said Did Not Know Your Name is an "awesome" PRO-LIFE song.
1/22/19: Last weekend we recorded Let Love Abide and Windmill. John the producer did a great job on drums and mixing each song. We had lots of fun recording this CD also, so John asked me about recording a new project: Radio Volume 3rd. I said that I have enough good songs to make a 3rd project. Finally, I asked him about recording the entire Potter's Wheel music CD. He agreed to do it. See my longer note about both songs we recorded, at my News And Notes page. I explained to John that Let Love Abide is a remake from my Joshua Sun CD, as a correction to make it not as "wimpy" a song, and more in line with a truer understanding of when "Love is patient" and when it is ungodly 'patience,' not real love. He said he liked both songs, and Windmill I think came out better. It is scriptural also, about taking a stand for God and Country.
A FINAL STUDIO POTTER'S WHEEL WILL BE RECORDED.

These two links go together. One is on prayer, and the other is brief notes (often daily) on current affairs,
law, scripture, and music written in prayer. I pray daily, but I do not always write notes that day.
