Chapel of My Heart by Erik Balkey
written for Connee Chandler
Wait for stream to download.
In April of 2007, I commissioned an amazing young poet/folk singer/songwriter, Erik Balkey, to write a song inspired by my vision called The Shortcut from my book, A Gift of Vision. I am thrilled with his results and feel Erik really captured the essence of the story told by my vision in the following song. I hope you like it. Here is a link to that vision if you would like to read what Erik used as the basis of this song.
Erik has allowed me to make Chapel of My Heart available in streaming audio on this website. If you want to get a copy that is in MP3 format, please contact me, at connee22@verizon.net. For now, my arrangement with Erik is that you can pay me $1 for the MP3 and I will pass all the proceeds on to Erik until he has the song available on CD in the future that can be downloaded from iTunes.
If you have a person, family history or other story that you would like Erik to write a song for you about, contact him via his website, www.erikbalkey.com. I highly recommend his work, having been inspired to commission him myself based on 5 great songs I had heard him perform recently that he wrote for other people.
