Presence of the Lord ... For Doug

In honor of Doug Blanchard ...

I don't usually play keyboard. Haven't for years - just tinker. My timing is off. I make some fluffs. I can't care today. It's just the kind of day it is. I'm keeping comment screening on for this one - just so you know.

Thank you for watching...

Presence of the Lord
by Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood

I have finally found a way to live
Just like I never could before.
I know that I don't have much to give,
But I can open any door.


Everybody knows the secret,
Everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live
In the color of the Lord.


I have finally found a place to live
Just like I never could before.
And I know I don't have much to give,
But soon I'll open any door.


Everybody knows the secret,
Everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a place to live
In the presence of the Lord.
In the presence of the Lord.


I have finally found a way to live
Just like I never could before.
And I know I don't have much to give,
But I can open any door.


Everybody knows the secret,
I said everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live
In the color of the Lord.
In the color of the Lord.

Hi Carol, I saw this one on your page with your picture at the keyboard and had to take a look. You really sing the blues in this one, Your voice and inflections just out shines any miss timings. Just beautiful. You just blues the whole thing into a beautiful song.
