Do you need to tell Satan where to go? Here’s a song for ya.

One of my favorite things on the internet is a series of letters that my friend Glen Fitzjerrell (Unka Glen) wrote to Satan. These letters help us gain some perspective on the spiritual battle we all face, and they help de-fang the pitiful (yet all-too-often-effective) tactics of the devil to take people out.

I love those ‘Dear Satan’ posts so much that I have started to write some songs in the same vein as those letters. These songs are both a shout-out to the awesome work Unka Glen is doing, and they are part of my own battle tactic to fight off the old serpent. This is a video of the first ‘Dear Satan’ song I wrote, which is called, “BEFORE.” Sing along if you need some help fighting your spiritual battle. 

You can read all of Unka Glen’s Dear Satan letters, RIGHT HERE

(also, I want to say thanks to my friend Taylor Lane who shot and edited this video, and the one and only Jed Brewer who created the audio production template that makes it sound as good as it does)

Hey guys,

This is a worship song I wrote for men and women coming out of prison and drug addiction.  If you listen to the song, you’ll hear about 100 ex-convicts and recovering drug addicts singing this at the top of their lungs.  That’s an unparalleled privilege in my life.

I have a chord chart for those who would like it - just message me.

So Here I Am

If you were looking for accomplishment
Then you know I wouldn’t stand a chance
But you said you wanted failures, so here I am

If you were looking for intelligence
Then you know I wouldn’t stand a chance
But you said you wanted fools, so here I am

Thank you God for love I don’t deserve
Thank you God for love I did not earn

If you were looking for good citizens
Then you know I wouldn’t stand a chance
But you said you wanted prisoners, so here I am

If you were looking for faithful men
Then you know I wouldn’t stand a chance
But you said you wanted doubters, so here I am

Thank you God for love I don’t deserve
Thank you God for love I did not earn

If you were looking for righteous men
Then you know I wouldn’t stand a chance
But you said you wanted sinners, so here I am

If you were looking for worthy men
Then you know I wouldn’t stand a chance
But you said you wanted me, so here I am 

Thank you God for love I don’t deserve
Thank you God for love I did not earn
