Musical Tribute - HEARTLAND HOME 2011 Flood.MOD

To the wonderful people of the heartland community who have been touched by the flood of 2011. I was inspired to write this song as a message of hope to each of us and a reminder for us to never forget where our home truly is. The floods may have taken away our homes, but it can never take away who we are and what we stand for (a strong belief in God, belief in family, belief in community and togetherness). I want people all around the globe to listen to this song, be inspired by its words, and pass it along to friends and family. We want this song to go viral. It is my hope that this song brings some recognition to the plight of the people in the heartland. Just know you are not forgotten. We will rebuild our great heartland!

Thank you for putting this beautiful song on YouTube--so well done and a worthy tribute. Our family (Roy & Mollie Blumenberg & children) lived in the Pinhook area in the 1950s. I remember George Williams as a good man and good neighbor.

I pray God's blessings on all the people of Pinhook, Missouri, and the Bird's Point-New Madrid Spillway.

This video is great! I always knew that the Williams and Jeffro families could sing.

Excellent! I grew up in Pinhook and your mother and father were dear sweet people

Hope everything goes well for everyone affected.

Beautiful song and words. I was just heartsick at what happened down there. Grew up in EP and love the land and people down there. God bless your family and all those who lost so much in those few seconds of explosion that changed lives forever.

I'm touched by your beautiful tribute. I am a travel writer and photographer working on a book about life along the Mississippi. Although I traveled the entire River for 90 days, the flooding made it clear the research for my book wasn't finished. I recently was blessed to meet your father and grandfather, George Williams. I have added a post to my blog "Surrendering to Serendipity" about him and Pinhook. I hope I can be of some small help by sharing this story. Gayle Harper

Love yall for uplifting my spirits I have listen to this song so much that I know the words already. I am going to trying and download it to my ipod.

Really enjoyed your song. My roots are from South IL between the Mighty Mississippi and the Ohio. I was born in Cairo and graduated from college in Cape. I cried the first time I heard your song-- it is so touching for all who love the heartland and will always call it home. Yes, the Lord will see you thru. Hope your song goes viral. You all sound great together! Julie Edwards Glascock, Stillwater OK

This is a beautiful song. I'm glad that my family is so talented and blessed. Things might seem hard for now. All those who lost homes, watch GOD change things for each and everyone of you. GOD BLESS you all.
