about
I was inspired to write this song after the tragic events in Moore, Oklahoma. I wanted to do something to help, something inspirational. I hope this song will inspire each of us to lift each other up during good times and bad. Each track we sell will be donated to the recovery efforts in Moore. Tinfeathers will be donating proceeds from this track to the Oklahoma Salvation Army. They are now transitioning to Intermediate and Long Term Recovery Efforts. During the emergency response phase the Salvation Army provided:
- 89,477 meals
-129,181 drinks
- 170,379 snacks
- Emotional and spiritual care to 14,728 individuals
- 51,988 comfort kits
- 10,249 Clean Up Kits
- 28,891 hours of employee and volunteer service
- 6,381 cases opened and
- services provided to 31,208 with assistance through distribution of cards, vouchers, and referrals
The Salvation Army also provided blankets, Bibles, brooms, rakes, shoves, wheel barrows, totes, food boxes, infant supplies and cases of water.
Tinfeathers thanks you for your support!
lyrics
VERSE 1
I’M NOT MY OWN, THE SEEDS ARE SOWN
THE RAIN WILL COME AND SOULS WILL WEEP
BUT ARE THEY MINE TO KEEP? OH ARE THEY MINE TO KEEP?
CHORUS
A PRAYER FOR YOU, A PRAYER FOR ME
OH HERE WE ARE AT MERCY’S FEET
KEEP SAVING ME, PULL OUT MY THORNS
OH WITH A WHISPER, WITH A ROAR
WITH A WHISPER, WITH A ROAR
VERSE 2
WE HEAR THE CRIES AND SOMEHOW SURVIVE
A CHAMPIONS HEART, ON BENDED KNEE
BUT IS THIS MINE, TO KEEP? OH YES ITS MINE TO KEEP.
