Christian country rock
Welcome to my site. I have posted a bunch of songs on this site. I hope you enjoy listening. Most of these songs are either Country or Jazz, but there are exceptions...but all are family friendly. My influences are the country rockers of the 70's & 80's. In addition, I have influences in other genre's of music as well, but I really like the beat, and harmonies present in Country Rock. So sit back and enjoy.

Lyrics
V1 I stare into the darkness, my rifle by my side The stars are shinning in the midnight sky Thinking 'bout my family a million miles away I’d give anything to be with them today V2 Every Christmas morning we couldn’t wait to see The presents under our old Christmas tree Momma yells “be careful” as we come running down the stairs Daddy kicked back in his easy chair Chorus But that is half a world and one lifetime away On a road that’s just too far If I could have one wish tonight It would be for peace on earth Merry Christmas from Kandahar solo V3 Everybody's seated at the table tonight Daddy saying Grace by candle light Momma sets an empty plate down at the other end For the day when I'll be home again Chorus But that is half a world and one lifetime away On a road that’s just too far If I could have one wish tonight It would be for peace on earth Merry Christmas from Kandahar Tag If I could have one wish tonight It would be for peace on earth Merry Christmas from Kandahar Merry Christmas from Kandahar
