Hard to find the world upstairs Beyond the stars He had longed for Only to discover the world upstairs Beyond the stars Like Jacob’s ladder Only this time he not angels climbed Rung by rung to sweet heaven’s gates Bowed to glorious mystery Finding everything finding everything Everything he had longed for He had longed for Only to discover the world upstairs Only to discover everything The world upstairs Everything everything… Everything everything… He had longed for… everything Only to discover… everything Beyond the stars… everything

Dreams are made of glass (look right through) Quiet mysteries all around inside… you Burning in your eyes (see right through me) (Oh my Lord my Lord) See right through See right through me (Well well)

I am just a little child Can you take me out tonight Under the stars where we can sing a song Or tell me a story Tell me it’ll be alright Tell me (it’ll be alright) Tell me before I lose my way Funny how the time flies When you’re having fun Or just when you’re confused Would you tell me a story And I will ask awhile and say… Oh

She was smaller on the inside place than the wide wide world. Gotta say this big big thing to a little little girl Whenever you ever tumble down And you crumble down on the inside place Whatever the panic attack whatever the human race Leaves you with, Let me relieve you with this. This world is just a spot, A dot on the map of the Infinite… Don’t Be Afraid This cosmic imitation of greatness is less than a handful in the hands of the Holy And His blessed recitation (we call it good news) goes round you, cause it found you When you were freakin out, Ground you to the real Shout out Hey God is not an afterthought He is the great Originator So tell the world I’ll see you later, Alligator You think you got big teeth have you seen the jaws of the Leviathan? Of the Mountains, of the tidal wave, of the jagged lightening streaks across the sky? Hey Dragon breath! Have you seen the teeth of God That can swallow kingdoms in the blink of an eye? I’m puttin’ my faith on and it feels real good Just right, got a glow in the dark grin in the middle of the night Aight? And we can dance on the teeth of the enemy I hope you follow me… Don’t Be Afraid Sing it. Beyond the limits of the creature we got Divinity In the neon gleam of His ever lovin’ eye We shout the shout heard round the whole wide world We shout the shout heard round the whole wide world Ain’t nobody ain’t no thing but a chicken wing God is bigger God is bigger Yeah… Don’t Be Afraid God is bigger, he is great, the sustainer and the Originate The Agitator, he stirs the whole world up Earth Shaker, and the giver of the endless cup Around the rim of the wide wide world is the rim of the chalice Lovin’ the universe. Destroyin’ the malice. You get a giant room in His heavenly palace. You think that He’s irrelevant… it’s just a fallac….y… Don’t Be Afraid

This incomplete fascination with this reflecting pool And in these shallow waters crying out for more I want to live along the shores of Holy And I’ll just leave the keys And leave the car And leave the world behind I’d rather walk tonite And we can shine tonite Like stars tonite I want to live along the shores of holy

Performing from New York City to Detroit, from Princeton to Yale, from Martha's Vineyard to Florida for thousands and for handfuls… with voice, guitar, harmonica and much more… Dave prefers to relate with his listeners rather than simply ‘wow’ them with versatility. ... more
