Hey guys
It's been awhile since I've posted anything, I've been in a little creative funk.
The guitar is a little out of tune and I may need someone to redo the bass track, for me.
I'm catching hell trying to find a good bass patch, for the BR

The message of the song is fellowship and supporting one another.
As usual, any and all comments and suggestions are welcomed.

Walk With Me
By Nelson  

Verse 1  
When, your solitary prayers just won't do.
And the weight of the world's coming down on you.
When your, troubles are many and your friends are few.
Brothers and sisters you're welcomed to...

Chorus    
Walk with me... on every street of every town.
Walk with me... just lay your burdens down.
Walk with me...
Don't know how far it's gonna be...
Or where it's gonna lead...
Just walk with me?

Verse 2  
A child wanders alone in the street, eyes of pain and disbelief.
Nowhere to go and no relief; she lost her whole family.
As I witness the horror unfold, something stirs, deep in my soul.
And devastation and pain's, in every face I see.
No I want sit idly by,
Want to help but don't know how.
Reach for the sky and shout out loud
Won't you Please.............

Chorus
Walk with me... on every street of every town.
Walk with me... just lay your burdens down.
Walk with me... Don't know how far it's gonna be...
Or where it's gonna lead... just walk with me?

Bridge / rap
Yeah, times are tough, but we will survive. The path is rough but we'll get by.
We're strong enough, to sure the line... hand in hand... side by side.
For as long as we've been under the sun, the power of peace, has out last the gun.
If we have the will, then our will be done, it's a powerful thing, when we walk as one.



Verse 3  
I'm not promising salvation or to your problems, the key.    
But fellowship can be powerful, so just and walk with me.
With hate on the rise, smoke filled skies,      
Glaring at, each other through suspicious eyes.      
Instead of my life, take my hand    
And just....

Repeat Chorus 2x

Bridge
Won't you walk, won't you walk with me, yeah, yeah, yeah...Oh.
Brothers and sisters, Brothers and sisters.
Don't you want to lay your, lay your burdens down, down , down...
And Walk With Me.

Top draw as per usual Nelson.

Fantastic melodies and the rap/bridge section sits perfectly between the verse and chorus, and especially love the bass line going on in that section.

Love the way it starts and finishes with that single acoustic guitar.

Another wonderful addition to your, already impressive, catalogue of songs.

Yes this is a pro job. Love your voice and all the tricky stuff going one, especially the panning effects and the simple ending. The bass sounds more than OK for me. cheers

Excellent tune, bro! I like how the bass sounds with the acoustic - It sounds like it's drifting around a little, how did you record it?

This is really catchy with a sweet groove - Great songwriting as usual!
