Always an event when you release new material and this is such a lovely structure and a truly fine lyric. Bravo Joe!

One play is just not enough. Sounds like a timeless classic already

A really beautiful one Joseph! I've always enjoyed your song craft, and this is no exception. Experience and wisdom, it's all there, and your voice a testament to that!

clear singing - wonderful fingerpicking, very much enjoyed

WHEN I LAY MY WORRIES DOWN

I will shed my old skin
See the world as new again
When I lay my worries down

I will go out on the rocks
And I will gaze upon the flocks
When I lay my worries down

And I will breathe a sigh of ease
Like the wind against the trees
When I lay my worries down

And I will drink the summer wine
But I’ll leave some on the vine
When I lay my worries down

And that looming sense of dread
When I lay down in my bed
When I lay my worries down

Shall be lifted like a stone
And I’ll leave well enough alone
When I lay my worries down

When I lay my worries down (demo)
