Loving this really gentle, steady doo-wop feel here, Niki. Your voice and playing are a great balance, and lyrically, this is a great take on the prompt. Digging it!

Nice spiritual hope in these lyrics, Niki! Very upbeat melody, and a great hook in the chorus.

A voice I love to listen to over and over again...perfection

Very understated but tight song this. I like the percussive flicks on the muted strings. Nice chorus that is bang on theme and a lovely tune. Big thumbs up.

What a sweet and delicate outro - love it. That's such a poignant melody line you've written there for "Don't look down" - I'd love to hear quiet-loud-quiet.

Looove the conscious connection between the quality of triumph and ability to exercise trust / find faith in adversity. Love too that lifeline made an appearance.

chorus
You may be already a winner in this life
You may be already a grinner in the strife
You don’t look down
You wont look down

Your eyes fixed ahead
Not to the ground

You don’t look down
You wont look down

Your eyes fixed ahead
Not to the ground

Verse 1
There is beauty and pain
in the giving away
calling all of us home through the dark
In the waking and beating of our hearts ever bleeding
For far more than we dare ever ask

verse 2
There is hope held assured
In the promise secured
In the trust and reveal in the light
There’s a lifeline displayed
In the twilight of days
When our sorrow and joy writhe and fight

Song note: My hometown is in the midst of extreme heartache and grief. Sometimes, there really aren't words, and coherent phrasing is just... gone. Please listen with care, and if you're a praying type, please pray for Oliver, his family, and their community. 

--

sometimes, you just don't have the words
and anything more would just be for the birds
tragedy hits again
you take it in
and maybe, if you're like me, we pray

i bought flowers at the supermarket today
silly, i'm sure, 'cuz i didn't even know your name yesterday
but i know it now
so i'll sing out
it's the only thing that i've got left to say

i'm sorry this is how it ends
sorry it couldn't have been
sorry ... so inadequate ...

ooooh ooooh

Lord, have mercy on us
Lord, have mercy on us
Lord, have mercy
have mercy
