VIBES WEB3 MUSIC COMPETITION WEEK 22// ‘I CAN’T EVEN WALK’ BY COLBERT AND JOYCE CROFT

(Edited)

Hi everyone! First, congratulations to last week's winners—amazing job! I apologize for the delay in submitting my entry this week. It’s been a bit challenging to find the right music for this song, and on top of that, I’ve been dealing with a pretty bad cough.

For this week’s entry, I’ve chosen the hymn 'I Can’t Even Walk' by Colbert and Joyce Croft, a beautiful song from the 1970s. This song has always resonated with me on a deep level, and I truly hope it speaks to you as well. It’s also one of my mother’s favorites, making it even more special for me to perform.

Lyrics

I thought number one would surely be me
I thought I could be what I wanted to be
I thought I could build on life's sinking sand
But now I can't even walk without you holding my hand

I can't even walk without you holding my hand
The mountains too high and the valleys too wide
Down on my knees that's where I learned to stand
Oh Lord, I can't even walk without you holding my hand

I thought I could do a lot on my own
I thought I could make it all day long
I thought of myself as a mighty big man
But Lord I can't even walk without you holding my hand

I can't even walk without you holding my hand
The mountains too high and the valleys too wide
Down on my knees that's where I learned to stand
Oh Lord, I can't even walk without you holding my hand

Here’s my participation;

Thank you so much @Verbald
He is new. I just onboarded so he barely knows his way around. The information concerning the promo video and updates excluded the new members. That’s why I told him to just make an entry this month then work towards a promo video for next month.
