Song #3 from the concept album "To the North"

Lured

The Hope to Rise Again
Music and Lyrics by Tom Harris

[Verse 1]  
  
The headlines are burning, the streets filled with rage  
Voices divided, hearts locked in a cage  
But a carpenter’s teaching still cuts through the noise  
“Love one another,” a far clearer voice  

[Chorus]  

Oh the world cries out for healing  
Through the anger, fear, and pain  
If we walk as Jesus walked among us  
We’ll find hope to rise again  

[Verse 2]  
There’s greed in the towers, and hunger in the street  
The strong hoard the power, the weary face defeat   
But He washed the feet of the lowest and the least    
Saying “Greatness is service, and mercy is peace”  

[Chorus]   
Oh the world cries out for healing  
Through the anger, fear, and pain  
If we walk as Jesus walked among us    
We’ll find hope to rise again  

[Bridge]  
Forgive the ones who wrong you, don’t carry the hate   
Build bridges not prisons, it’s never too late   
The meek shall inherit, the peacemakers lead   
The world is still hungry for love it must feed  

[Chorus]    
Oh the world cries out for healing   
Through the anger, fear, and pain  
If we walk as Jesus walked among us   
We’ll find hope to rise again  

[Chorus]    
Love is stronger, hate must fall   
Peace is the answer, mercy for all   
Walk like Jesus, hear the call    
Love is stronger, love is all  

[Outro]  
Love is stronger, love is all…

I recorded the album in the closet of a rented room in La Puente, CA as a gift for family and friends. Soon after it topped the Holiday charts on Airplay Direct in Nashville several times as the #1 download to radio stations around the world. I hope you enjoy my playing, which always comes from my heart to yours.

04 O Holy Night

This gentle acoustic composition features warm, finger-picked acoustic guitar paired with soft, breathy harmonica lines that drift in and out like a calm evening breeze. The guitar provides a steady, reassuring foundation with simple, flowing chord patterns, while the harmonica offers sparse, melodic phrases that feel reflective rather than melodic-forward. The overall mood is peaceful, grounded, and emotionally soothing, designed to ease mental tension and encourage a sense of stillness.  This track works equally well as background music for studying, meditation, nighttime relaxation, and quiet moments of reflection, offering warmth and serenity without distracting the listener.

Rendez Vous

I love amphibians and have an affinity for fried okra, loud guitars, and sick beats. expedition 33 and port wine are my thing at the moment, along with hollow knight and rise of the ronin.
