He wrote this song for Jeff Buckley. He tells a great story on a radio show about Jeff being a guitar tech for The Commitments when they went on tour. He took him to Sin-e and asked Jeff to sing Sweet Thing with him, Jeff quit as the tech and stayed in NYC. After he heard the news of Jeff passing away he wrote this song. :)
hes a living irish legend = the best of them and what a wonderful song writer he does amazing covers also but he does them better than the orignals in my opinion
Saw him with Eddie Vedder at the Paramount Theatre in Oakland last night. Awesome show! One of the newspapers here has a setlist for the show, and it lists this song as Song of Good Hope.
Just saw him with Eddie Vedder last night at the Santa Barbara Bowl and he closed with this song. Literally everyone around me were in tears. Absolutely amazing!
@d3m3tri0 I don't think it has an official name, as to the best of my knowledge it hasn't been released yet, but hopefully it will be soon! Thankfully we can enjoy it here in the meantime, a really beautiful one!
Very much so. Brought tears to my eyes as a part of myself needed to hear that message. Even if Glen doesn't really know where I've been. Hope he keeps singing it for years to come.
Beautiful!

2.Take your time, babe. It's not as bad as it seems.
You'll be fine, babe. It's just some rivers and streams
in between you and where you wanna be.
And watch the signs now. You'll know what they mean
You'll be fine now. Just stay close to me
and may the song of good hope walk with you through everything.
La de da, da
Repeat 2.

Reach For It
1.If we're gonna make it across this river of life
you need think like a boat and go with the tide.
And I know where you've been. It's really left you in doubt
Of ever finding a harbor and figuring this out
You're gonna need all the help you can get
So lift up your arms now and reach for it, reach for it.

Please, anyone can write here the lyrics. I don't know the name of this song and I can't find them.
My english is not good enough to write them by myself.
Thanks a lot.

Darn it Glen, it's like you're reading my heart.

Never stop composing.
