These were written in 1968 by Kent M. Keith, but I’d never heard or seen them until recently. One of the performances at Harding’s Spring Sing this year was a rendition of Martina McBride’s “Do It Anyway”. I thought the lyrics were really cool, so I Googled them and found Keith’s website.

To whomever sent the unsigned letter to my house yesterday:
If your intent was to hurt, you succeeded. If your intent was to help, you have a grave misunderstanding of the issue and the proper means by which to confront somebody.
Since you are obviously a fan of quoting scripture, let me share one with you:

The Journey/Def Leppard concert last night at the Forum was AWESOME.  Both bands were incredible; they played all their favorites, and they played them “right”.  No major changes or new arrangements like you get with Bob Dylan concerts; you got to hear the songs the way you know them.

Don’t forget when rating Dr. Seagraves that to this day I still remember that the primary export of South Carolina was indigo. I would probably remember more if I had not spent most class periods […]

Well, it appears my PDL experiment has not started well. Between work, schoolwork, and Halo 2, I have not made it past day 2 of the book.
Halo 2 might as well be titled “Crack”–it’s that addictive. I find myself ready to go to bed at 10 or 11 each night, but […]

Its thesis is that Americanism is the direct descendant from Puritanism. It is a very interesting read, even though the author is not into the whole “brevity” thing.

Point to Ponder: “I am not an accident.”
Verse to remember:“I am your Creator. You were in my care even before you were born.”–Isaiah 44:2 (CEV)
This day’s reading is much more meaningful to me than it would have been before Anna. The thought that I am as meaningful to God as Anna is […]
