Yonder

I wrote this piece this week. I performed this with my 12 string acoustic guitar. It is a staggered shuffle blues. The lyrics start one minute twenty-four seconds into it. This piece is a part of a much larger work (rock opera/modern dance/ballet). 


Yonder
By Steele Ford

Jesus said
I want to go over yonder
I want to go over yonder and pray
Yeah

Jesus said
I want to go over yonder
I want to go over yonder and pray

And he said
I want you to stand right here and watch
Just a little while
While I go over yonder and pray

Jesus said
I want to go over yonder
a little while
I want to go over yonder and pray

Just keep an eye out for me now why don’t you
Just keep a little eye out for me why don’t you
That’s all I want you to do
For a little while
Just keep your eyes open
Try not to sleep for me a while

Thank you

The lyrics sound clumsy, but they go pretty well with the guitar.
