This song began with Stephen, who recorded it on his acoustic guitar and bass to a programmed drum track a few months ago. We were all thrilled to work on it, even though it sat in BandLab as a project for almost a month before Stephen separated the tracks, thus allowing us to trickle in our parts. JJ was first to jump on it, because he could before the tracks were separated, as his part is completely his idea. He added the organ that really set up the entire sound of both dominant sections of the song. 
  Ken was first up to the project once the tracks were replaceable, making the wild, driving beat his own. Inspired by both JPJ and Michael Ivins, Josh laid down his bass line, trying to match Ken's energy. Last, but not least, Mark jumped in with the rumbling timpani. He also added the flavorful harmonica, and unique jaw harp you hear throughout, as well. Finally, Stephen also got the idea to add the hambone percussion at the very end of the song, which we all consider a treat, and after showing us how it's done, Mark volunteered his percussion skills to give it a go. Stephen wasn't done, though, and still had some magic to sprinkle. He went in and added the howling electric guitar you hear prominently in the second main section. Also, he added the tempting intro with his acoustic guitar and electric mandolin. 
  Once it was in the bag, we thought it appropriate for our master mixer Stephen to put it to bed, which he did in his always expert manner.
  This is a gift from Stephen to all of us, and you, too. It took a lot of teamwork to make the dream work, as always for Eclectic Collective. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

The Sun Comes Shining Through

Your heavenly love.

I CAN ONLY DO MY PART by NOVA J and MADRE

Easy to blame
To point, to shame
Words like knives
Still cut the same

But I’m done with your spin
I breathe and look within

I can only do my part
Keep my peace, guard my heart
Tend the fire, feed the soul
Take a breath, not control 
In a world that falls apart 
I can only do my part

(hmmm… hmmm…)
(hmmm… hmmm…)
I can only do my part…
do my part…

Rushed through life
To dodge the ache
Busy hands
Still hearts break

But now I stay
Let your noise drift away

I can only do my part 
Keep my peace, guard my heart 
Say less, listen deep 
Lay down what I can’t keep 
In a world that breaks apart 
I can only do my part

(hmmm… hmmm…)
(hmmm… hmmm…)
I can only do my part…
do my part…

Rush the mantra…
Mantra’s a light
Soft and low
Calling me back
To let it go
Breathe in still
Release the fight
This is all I need tonight

All things end
Even stars go dim
But I’ve made my peace
With what’s within

I can only do my part 
Keep my peace, guard my heart
Be a light, not a flame 
Choose the truth, not the game 
Even when the world falls apart 
I can only do my part

(hmmm… hmmm…)
(hmmm… hmmm…)
I can only do my part…
do my part…

I CAN ONLY DO MY PART

HIS ONLY SON
(CHORUS)
HE SENT HIS ONLY SON
TO WALK AMONG US
ON PLANET EARTH
HIS NAME IS JESUS
HIS LOVE IS UNENDING
AND UNCHANGING
HIS LOVE IS UNLIMITED
AND UNCOMPLICATED
HE NEVER STOPS LOVING US
IS ALWAYS WITH US
OUR EVERLASTING FATHER
THAT HOLDS THE WORLD TOGETHER
HE IS THE GREAT HEALER
THE GREAT REDEEMER
WANTS US TO BE HOLY
AND PART OF HIS FAMILY
EVEN WHEN TEMPTED
HE LIVED A PERFECT LIFE
COULD NOT BE CORRUPTED
WHILE HERE ON EARTH
(CHORUS) Repeat 2 times
HE SENT HIS ONLY SON
TO WALK AMONG US
ON PLANET EARTH
HIS NAME IS JESUS
