BLESS THIS MESS
by Bret H. Hart 7/11/07
GOT SKELETONS IN MY CLOSET,
COBWEBS IN MY HEART
DUST-BUNNIES UNDER MY SPIRITUAL-BED,
I JUST DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START
THE DEVIL RAN OFF WITH ½ MY SOCKS
AND I’M ALMOST OVERDRAWN
WHEN I LOOK AT THE LANDFILL OF MY LIFE
I WANT TO BLINK AND SEE IT GONE
BLESS THIS MESS – WHERE CAN I BEGIN?
BLESS THIS MESS – WASH AWAY MY EVERY SIN
BLESS THIS MESS – LET ME DO YOUR WILL
BLESS THIS MESS – PUT MY SHOULDER TO THE WHEEL
GOT A DUSTPAN FULL OF ANGER
AND I’M SWEEPING-UP SOME SPITE
GOT SOME APOLOGIES I NEED TO MAKE
ON THE TELEPHONE TONIGHT
I’M STILL KNEE-DEEP IN YESTERDAY,
WITH LOTS OF JUNK TO DITCH
BUT, THE MORE I LET-GO OF THIS WORLD,
THE MORE THAT I FEEL RICH
BLESS THIS MESS – WHERE CAN I BEGIN?
BLESS THIS MESS – WASH AWAY MY EVERY SIN
BLESS THIS MESS – LET ME DO YOUR WILL
BLESS THIS MESS – PUT MY SHOULDER TO THE WHEEL
BLESS THIS MESS – WHERE CAN I BEGIN?
BLESS THIS MESS – WASH AWAY MY EVERY SIN
BLESS THIS MESS – LET ME DO YOUR WILL
BLESS THIS MESS – PUT MY SHOULDER TO THE WHEEL

I like the song, however I have OD'd (to the power of google) on references to deities in songs (you can thank Mr. Zillo for that.)
When you mix watch out for scrapy frequencies (12k 0 20 k.)
It's nice to hear those guitar licks. I miss hearing them in real-time.
Thanks, maybe a trip up to New England to perform with the old crew would be a way to fascilitate that.

WOW! You've been reading my diary ....
The sound of the instruments are amazing! Your voice blends beautifully ..... and the message is right on target!!!! I personally think every station on the planet should air this one several times a day! Wish you lived closer so we could put you all on the telethon broadcast! Congrats on a Winner!
Gee, thanks. I'm trying to integrate all the "hillbilly splendour" of where I live with the things in my heart. A strange brew, fer sure.

Says so much so beautifully. Hope to see you soon!
