Music Monday – “Yeah, the lord is my refuge and fortress/My God with whom I trust/But I’ll never know why the wicked/Gets to prey on the best of us”

Hard to believe it’s only been a week since the worst mass shooting in modern US history.

So many stories, speculations and even songs coming out over the past week.

Here’s a new one from Eric Church, the Friday night headliner at the Harvest 91 Festival who had actually jumped into the crowd during his set and, had circumstances been different, might have not had a celebratory experience with his fans like he did.

He’s written a song in response to the experience going from the highest of highs at the end of his final show of the year on Friday night to hearing about what happened on Sunday…
