Key: F# major

Verse 1

Always one of our more popular songs. I suppose that is because it features our long-time friend, friend, Jeremy Enigk, who also sings with Sunny Day Real Estate. Aaron, Nick,

Jeremy and I played together early on, if you can call it playing! We had fun. Since this song was written to be a duet, we thought it would be great to sing with Jeremy again. And so we did. Jeremy changed the lyrics slightly on the bridge (artistic license, I suppose), but it came out rather well. He also dreamt up the great background vocals!

Verse 2

'Digging Deep' is a song focused on reaching out to others, that is, with the Gospel. It is frightening. It is difficult. It is unnerving to put yourself 'out-on-a-limb' so so so much, but it is absolutely the calling of our Lord! There are times, however,

when we don't heed the Word of God and we 'won't' share with someone... it could be that a seed will never be planted in them. This song ends with the first verse (again), but the idea is that this time we are going to follow through... though we are scared.

So now
