Dry Season 03:42
Dry Season by Heaven Knows Once I had a dream of endless life Once I thought that everything was right Now these eyes hurt from tears never shed Now these hands rise your bread and wine Once I had the future on my side Once I believed this world will love me enough. All is gone now. I don’t need to hide. It all make sense now. I come to you for life. Once I trusted that reality was real Once I though that Heaven was a place In my dry spell your blood never fails It all make sense now I rise your bread and wine. I come for Your Grace. I come to you for Life. come for Your Grace. I come to you for Life.

In the Wind 03:47
In the Wind by Heaven Knows We are not strangers We all bleed and fall in love We all care about children and trees Somebody has been lying to you. We are not your enemy, We are made in his image too. We all dream and hope and sing We want a future just like you. Can you feel the wind blowing all around? Can you tell which way to go? Can you see the scales falling from your eyes? Is the taste of a new life. We are not your mistake. We refuse to stand in silence Somebody has been lying to you. Can you feel the wind blowing all around? Can you tell which way to go? Can you see the scales falling from your eyes? Will you walk in this new light? Can you feel the wind blowing all around? Can you tell which way to go? Can we grow together once again? This loneliness is killing us.

The Blessing 04:45
The Blessing by Heaven Knows May the rains wash your soul and the suns warm your heart May every road you walk lead you deeper into your vision. May the life that you are illuminate everyone around May the life that you breathe shine brighter every day. By the way, you know, I love you. May the wind bring you words that will show your truth inside and all the shadows melt away from your future and your past May the life that you are illuminate everyone around May the life that you breathe shine brighter every day. By the way, you know, I love you.

Terra Incognita by Heaven Knows You send me out to get the land you promised to my fathers but here I’m so weak not ready to become what you want me to be. The wind is bringing rain to wash my tears of shame the trees remain in silence when this night is over I will walk into your daylight. Is your Grace that’s flowing like milk and honey Is your Name that’s storming, shinning over the land. You send me out to tell your story to any one that may hear but the time is running and this road is so hard I need your hand to rise me. Is your Grace that’s flowing like milk and honey Is your Name that’s storming, shinning over the land.

Searching for you by Heaven Knows I have been searching for you in different places all around, with a different name with a face that was not mine. I have been lost in endless streets I have been stoned by friendly hands I lost my bearings and my soul not knowing I was upside down. How can I be the one you want? How can I see your face and truly live? There must be a mistake somewhere Everything I try is broken. I have been searching for you in every stranger, every fool They all deserted me, you know I didn’t know what they were looking for. But I believe there is a new chance that I can take it and be made new I do believe your grace is stronger than all my empty destinations. How can I be the one you want? How can I see your face and truly live? There must be a mistake somewhere Everything I try is broken.

This is Your Song by Heaven Knows This is your song, Lord the one that has been all along from the beginning of time your wonder so sublime. This is the song you wrote about the greatest love the song we sing in crowds or when we fall alone. This is your song let us sing it for you Let us rejoice in you This is the song we sing in every street of lust and sin or when the sun is rising your glory so surprising. A song of rain and wind the song we find ourselves in in broken homes and jails where your name is hailed. This is your song let us sing it for you Let us rejoice in you

Untitled by Heaven Knows Late at night I called upon the Lord and I asked Him why am I feeling so dry? He said: If you don't stand in Faith you will not stand at all.

World 03:39
World by Heaven Knows Time is running toward you. The universe flowing between your fingers and here my soul glorifies your love (your love, your love, your love) This world was made for you this body born in your love Come with your power and grace take what belongs to you. The stones and trees will scream your name the moon and seas living within your rhythm and here my eyes rest in your beauty your beauty all around This world was made for you this body born in your love Come with your power and grace take what belongs to you. The rivers bring your blessing forward and mountains greet your majesty and here I rest in your embrace the warm of your embrace. This world was made for you this body born in your love Come with your power and grace take what belongs to you.

about

This album was born during two years of struggle and restoration over what does it mean to follow on the steps of the Great Rabbi. The lyrics are an expression of it all. As it is, its content can be considered Christian, but it tries to disentangle itself from all the cliches of Christian music.

In order to do that, I moved away from all the U2-influenced roar inhabiting churches and youth camps and took a trip to my own inner sanctuary. There, I filled the empty spaces with synthesizers and guitars while allowing the experiences to talk for themselves. The end result is closer to electronic dance music , specially Chillout, because that is the way Heavens sounds to me.

It was born from certain experiences in certain communities but it ended as an expression of isolation, pondering the centuries old question: can we be isolated from all community and still call yourself a Christian? This music does not try to answer the question, just document it.

In the end, when all the complains and bullying from the righteous ones stops, the experience, the real Experience, is all that is left. The rest is noise.

released April 27, 2010

This album was and is dedicated to Jesus Christ Our Savior.

With special Thanks to my wife, for her patience and understanding, without whom, this project would still be in some closet. Also, to all the people that walked with me over the years. Special consideration to Maumee UMC in Perrysburg, OH; Alan Hall for pushing me forward in the search and our friends Oscar and Sonia at Comunidad Cristiana, Winston Salem, NC. for giving me the first chances. All of them taught me something over the years.

Thanks, also, to all the people who refused to participate in these recordings and to the ministers that fiercely criticized its technical qualities. You know, the Psalms do not use rhyming.
