this is a song written with my little brother Jay.  It came all in one swoop as they say. It was inspired by the music in the movie "O Brother, Where Art Though?"

Lift Us words by Mark Austin and Jay Austin, music by Mark Austin

MARK AUSTIN SOLO PROJECT: On My Way feelingful spices of slide interspersed with bluesy vocals reaching for transcendence as good grooves jump around in genre from Alt Rock to prog rock to Country Gospel to a Christmas, not to mention two tracks from an earlier band "ooga booga" or download from direct link to the song

I feel deep down within my heart that You are near at hand and reaching for my willingness to breath within your air of love and hope to lift us from dispair For I truly know deep down within my heart true love will guide my way and if I start to recognize a place where we might part runs from the depth, away from where I start but though I see right now with eyes so clear that morning starts over each day again would the sunshine seem so warm without the rain would the good times be so glad without some pain and if our lives were not a question, could we easily find the direction that would lead us back to the Father's house again? I feel deep down within my heart that You are near at hand and reaching for my willingness to breath within your air of love and hope to lift us from dispair For I truly know deep down within my heart true love will guide my way and if I start to recognize a place where we might part runs from the depth, away from where I start but though I see right now with eyes so clear that morning starts over each day again Lift Us, Lift Us each day again Lift Us, Lift Us within my heart, each day again, Lift Us, Lift Us, eyes so clear Lift Us, Lift Us, each day again starts over each day again within my heart
