I'll Take Your Promises With Me

This is one of those songs that grabs you and makes you think. It's probably especially meaningful to me, because I've been there. To a place there death becomes personal, and you see funeral processions every time you drive to town. Where you realize that violence and hatred and demons really are real, and that they're all around you. And where you find hope, laughter, and happiness springing out of simple mud huts, blossoming along dusty village streets, and blunting the grim edge of poverty. Where people, faced with life's harshest realities, find a 'peace that passeth understanding'.
