I went to the David Wilcox concert last night and he shared the stage with Susan Werner. I thought you guys might like this song in particular. (Right-click and Save As... to download it.)

excuse me sir, what did you say?
when you shout so loud, it's hard to tell
you say that I must change my ways
for i am surely bound to hell

well I know you'd damn me if you could
but my friend, that's simply not your call
if god is great and god is good
why is your heaven so small

you say you know you say you've read
that holy bible up on your shelf
do you recall when jesus said
judge not, lest ye be judged yourself

for i know you'd damn me if you could
but my friend, that's simply not your call
if god is great, and god is good
why is your heaven so small

with your fists that shake, and your eyes that burn
what makes you do these things you do?
i would not be surprised to learn
someone somewhere excluded you

but my friend, imagine it if you would
a love much mightier than us all
o if god is great and god is good
why is your heaven
so small

I like, Corey. Thanks.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

I like the word "imagine." It's what many theologians suffer the lack of.
