God's Home (Original Music Database - emifolk & suuzzee5 collab)

A studio version of the original song, "God's Home" by emifolk (S-Folker-J), has been paired with springtime images of the Appalachian Mountains by suuzzee5. I took all of these pics during the past six weeks just trekking around the mountain here at the house. You've seen pictures of some of these scenes before, but you may not recognize them because they were completely covered with ice and snow. Folker's song has an authentic '60s vibe, so some of my images just had to go slightly psychedelic. :) The song also has a fantastic message, very timely and "green." I'm incredibly humbled that Folker wrote this beautiful song in the first place and then was gracious enough to make a studio version for the collaboration. He is a great friend and one of the best singer/songwriters around!

Here is Folker's original description of his song that he uploaded on April 19, 2008:

This is the second time that one of my youtube friends inspired me to a song
this time Suuzzee5 and her great channel with beautiful vids about Appalachian Home, Children, Cats and some nice Country impressions
for me the home of God never was a church or a temple it's always been the nature and it's beauty our maker created
this is the first expression of the song i can imagine this tune as a driven rock song hope it will stand the test of time
this dedicated to Suze and her fine work

God's Home

a smooth silvery stream
is the bell of my daydream
what's coming in will go out
can you tell me what it's all about
no use to show our sweetest smile
behind all our fakin' style
'cause God don't have to close his eyes
to see us without any disguise

a woman wrote me a letter
and she wrote it so nice
she lives in love with the nature
i don't have to read it twice
to know she's really joyful
every word warmed my heart
she let the spirit of God rule
and that's the highest peak of art

it's God's home
not our own alone
save this beauty or we will be gone

this little beatin' heart
would like to take a new start
we are not the first and not the last
and at the end of the line we have to pay cash
so let me see your sweetest smile
behind all your fakin' style
'cause every time i close my eyes
i'd like to wear another disguise

This song is terrific; I really enjoyed the listen. I love the slide guitar. Also loved the whole concept of sanctity of nature and beauty of Appalachia (where I live). Beautiful song.

[suuzzee5]

Thanks so much. Folker always writes and performs the most amazing music. Happy to meet a fellow mountaineer. So glad you stopped in.

Wow...how'd I miss this.....Folker is so right......churches are for showing off new cloths and gossip....sond jaded?.....been there......

[suuzzee5]

Hi Richard, thanks so much for coming 'round to listen. Folker is such a brilliant musician and a great person. You don't sound jaded at all... spirituality is important but attending church does not necessarily contribute to spiritual growth.

love the song and the graphics were fantastic

endless starz

[suuzzee5]

Thanks, Di! By all means do subscribe to Folker. He is such a wonderful musician! He's not very active on YT right now but I'm always hopeful that he will begin uploading music once again.  I love his music!

[et7waage1]

Wonderful music! Very enjoyable to listen to!

[CharmedQuarkZ99]

Yeah...Folker is great...like his music and he always sends 'sunny greetings'.....agree...churche­s can get in the way of Spiritual Growth...far to many worship The Messanger but miss The Message....Forgiveness is at the top

[suuzzee5]

Thanks so much for those stars and also for the sub. You're wonderful!! Suze
