I just found Pierce Pettis on youTube... fun!
ok so this isn't the best advertisment... but I was just excited to find it.
Pierce is definitely one of my all time favorite song writers/singers. You should definitely check out his work
Jonathan and I saw Pierce at Ginkgo's in Saint Paul a few months ago... definitely one of the highlights of my year.
There are better Pierce Videos here--scroll halfway down the page to Pierce Pettis
Check out the "God Believes in You" video -- Pierce calls it his 'reverse psycology' song ;-) Oh heck... check out all the songs. They're totally worth it.
When you start to doubt if you exist
God believes in you
Confounded by the evidence
God believes in you
When your chances seem so slim
When your light burns so dim
And you swear you don't believe in him
God believes in you
When you rise up just to fall again
God believes in you
Deserted by your closest friends
God believes in you
When you're betrayed with a kiss
Turn your cheek to another fist
It doesn't have to end like this
God believes in you
Everything matters if anything matters at all
Everything matters
No matter how big
No matter how small
When you're so ashamed that you could die
God believes in you
And you can't do right even though you try
God believes in you
Blessed are the ones who grieve
The ones who mourn, the ones who bleed
In sorrow you sow
But in joy, you'll reap
God believes in you
Oh, God believes in you
--Pierce Pettis
