Sanctuary

Song Notes

I was asked to lead a song at an auction to raise money for the Boiler Room, a local non-profit coffee house in our town, primarily for under-age kids and teen-agers to have a safe, welcoming place to hang out, play chess, share their art and music, and generally just deal with life as a young person in a sometimes difficult and challenging time. In talking with some of the folks there, the words of their stories found their way into this song. It seems to work thematically for most everyone, as life can sometimes seem a bit chilly, and it sure is good to have a “place to go when it gets cold.”
