about

I wrote this record as a way of breathing new life into songs I love. My desire was to preserve the original melody and lyrics from these historic songs and present them with new arrangements. The hope is for these songs to be seen with new eyes. To break us out of the monotony that comes with time and to unleash the power of these songs afresh. My musical inspiration for this record came from spending time listening to electronic artists that I love and a desire to keep these songs "small" in production. I wanted to be able to mold everything on my own, free from outside input or expectation. My good friend, Jordan Lucas, plays guitar and sings background vocals on every track. I am incredibly grateful for his friendship and artistry. I could not have done this without his help. My desire was to make something that I love and I hope you love it too. Thanks for listening. - Adam

lyrics

Abide with me; fast falls the eventide
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide
When other helpers fail and comforts flee
Help of the helpless, abide with me

Thou on my head, in early youth didst smile
And though rebellious, and perverse meanwhile
Thou hast not left me, though I oft left Thee
On to the close Lord, abide with me

I need Thy presence, every passing hour
What but Thy grace, can foil the tempters power?
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, abide with me

I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight, tears lose their bitterness
Where is thy sting death, where grave thy victory?
I triumph still, abide with me

Hold Thou Thy cross, before my closing eyes
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies
Heavens morning breaks and sin's vain shadows flee
In life, in death, Lord, abide with me
