Lord My Feet Are Restless | Steven Pitkanen | LaDena Laine
Lyrics: LaDena Laine
Music: LaDena Laine and Steven Pitkanen
Arrangement: Steven Pitkanen
Piano and Vocal: Steven Pitkanen
Lyrics:
Lord, my feet are restless;
They need somewhere to go.
Please give them a path to take
That leads them to your throne.
Lord, my hands are restless;
Idle they should not be.
Please give them a task to do,
So in your service be.
Lord, my mind is restless,
Full of worry and despair.
Please give me a focus
And help me know you're there.
Lord, my tongue is restless
And speaking out of turn.
Please teach it a lesson,
So it will preach your word.
Lord, my heart is restless
And filled with so much pain.
Hold me in your loving arms
That I might feel your grace.

Here is a hymn written for the Lenten Season at St.Mark's Anglican/Lutheran Church in Midland. We were to add a verse each week until all five might be performed with choir on Palm Sunday.

I am trying branch out from songwriting into instrumental music. Here is my first attempt. At some point I would like to try my hand at scoring for TV or Film.

This song is a rallying cry to end the current "us vs. them" socio-political culture.

I actually wrote this song a few years ago when my son started asking for his own iPhone. I started thinking of numerous possible reasons/excuses that he might come up with for persuading me to get one- it hasn't worked, though- I still haven't given in- maybe when I hit 1000 subscribers (only 983 to go!). I originally wanted him to sing it, but the key of song ended up being wrong for his voic...

    You didn't tell me you made a lyrics video for this. Thanks. One person told me that when they heard it they could feel God close by and that the song honored Him. That is what it is supposed to do. God is gracious to have given us the gifts and helped us discover that, although we are an ocean apart, we can glorify Him together by using those gifts.

    Oh my, Steve, you have created such a beautiful gift for Kristine and your entire family. What a lovely tribute - you are indeed a talented musician! And Kristine, your voice is still as crystal clear as ever - beautifully sung (despite the urge to succumb to the heart-felt emotion of it all). Thank you both for sharing :-)
