Joe Ward Musical Tribute to our Troops

Performer Joe Ward from Grand Rapids, Michigan, arranged this music to lyrics by Bernie Taupin. The name of the song is "Thank God, I Guess, for the Captain and the Kid." On this live performance Joe dedicates this poignant lyric and haunting melody to the men and women serving our country. The lyrics were in the lyric book for the new CD by Elton John "The Captain and the Kid" but Elton never wrote the music to this one song. Joe delivers a haunting musical rendition that captivates the listener. Please pray for our troops, for our country, for the world, that peace may abide.
