Here Are lyrics To A New Song Of Daniel’s

Hey guys…
Hope you all are having a wonderful Tuesday afternoon. I just back home from spending the morning writing with my friend (and amazing songwriter) Sarah Hart. I really love what we came up with today…& while I have nothing to actually PLAY for you, here’s the lyric. I’ll talk with you all soon.

Blessings - Daniel

EVERYBODY’S BEEN

I’m so up in the air
Don’t know where I’ll go to next
I tried standing my ground
But it all came down around me
At the end of the rope
I hope against hope, less & less
That something can pull me through, when…

Oh, lo & behold
I hear a voice & it says let go
Oh, cause you’re gonna fall
Might as well give it your all
Oh, it’s never the end
Pick yourself up & start over again
Cause in life you always land
Where everybody’s been

Oh well, I was a fool
Put myself up on a pedestal
It’s hard to come back down
Be a face in the crowd around me
God knows just what I need
Truth to come & knock me off my feet
And still I’m hanging on for life, when…

Oh, lo & behold
I hear a voice & it says let go
Oh, cause you’re gonna fall
Might as well give it your all
Oh, it’s never the end
Pick yourself up & start over again
Cause in life you always land
Where everybody’s been

I may be good, or maybe not
I may do right, might miss the mark
Help me forgive my selfish heart
I may be good, or maybe not
I may do right, might miss the mark
Help me forgive my selfish heart
For all I am & am not doing
Oh God, I’m only human

Oh, lo & behold
I hear a voice & it says let go
Oh, cause you’re gonna fall
Might as well give it your all
Oh, it’s never the end
Pick yourself up & start over again
Cause in life you always land
Where everybody’s been

Here Is The Latest blog post from Daniel!


So I’m sitting here tonight in my hotel room in Lexington, MA with every light turned off sipping on some Perrier water & munching on a bag of Skittles (don’t judge me…it’s the perfect post-show snack - hahaha). It’s quiet, & I’ve opened the blinds so I can watch December’s first New England snow-fall against the dark sky. It’s quite beautiful outside; so crisp, clean, new… It’s kinda the perfect picture to sit and reflect.

You see, I’m in the process of finishing up a pretty busy week. In fact, this may have been one of the busiest weeks I’ve had all year (& it’s been a whirlwind of a year). By this time tomorrow, I will have played for 7 different events in 5 days through 5 different states (TN, MA, CT, RI & NJ)…WHEW! Of course, after the show tomorrow night in Jersey, I get to travel to New York for a few days off. This will be my first trip to “The Big Apple” & it’s taken almost 31 years to get there…I can’t wait!!! However, for now, it’s nice to enjoy a quiet evening of simple reflexion.

So let’s reflect: If I’m being honest, 2009 has been a year of some amazing highs but at the same time discouraging lows. Now I know there will be people from all different walks of life that’ll read this but I’m sure many of you know what I’m talking about when I say “lows”. Despite the various specifics that surround our lives, I’m talking about those situations that make your stomach churn & your heart ache…those instances you feel that despite all your work & striving you still fall short. The kind of moments that, at times, make you question everything you know & trust. Those are hard seasons for anyone to walk through…& I’ve been there!

So what do we do in those seasons? Well, I remember a pastor once saying that most of our lives are meant to be lived in the valley yet oftentimes we fool ourselves into believing life is to be meant to be lived on top of the mountain. He went on to say that those “mountain top experiences” were God’s way of encouraging our souls along this journey of life. I love that image…an image where my God knows & cares enough about my daily situation to send deliberate moments of encouragement for my heart. I believe something like that can only be described as a glimpse of heaven.

Tonight, as I’m looking out on the freshly fallen snow, all I can think about is how much I feel blessed. I can say with full confidence that I’m resting on the mountain-top this evening. When my time here in New England comes to an end, I’ll be walking away blessed & overly encouraged by the people I’ve had the chance to meet &/or reconnect with; those who trust me enough to share their time and stories; those whom I lovingly refer to not as fans…but as friends, family…my brothers & sisters! I know God is purposeful in our lives. His love finds a way to each of our hearts…& most times it takes us completely by surprise.

In saying all this, I’m in no way deluded by that fact that the beautiful glow of this week’s experience will gradually fade into a memory; something I’m bound to sit with friends & reminisce fondly over. Surely just as gradual will be the inevitable journey back into the valley. However, as it comes, I’m resolved to face it without fear but with a renewed hope; hope in my fellow man but more importantly in my Heavenly Father. With 2010 is right around the corner, I can’t help but look forward to a new year & the chance at new beginnings…convinced more than ever that whether we’re seeking it intently or not… God’s love always finds a way to our hearts…

Blessings my friends -
Daniel

Here Is The Latest Video Blog From Daniel!!

updates…

June 26th, 2009

Hey Guys Super Sorry for the lack Of Updates My Internet has been Done for a bit But I’m Back Here Is Daniel’s Blog Entry …. Also check Out Daniel’s New Site Here!
Hey guys,

I hope this little update fins you all doing well this Sunday night. Now I know it’s been a little while since my last update so I wanted to make sure I gave you all a bit more detailed account of recent life. There are definitely some new and exciting things going on. Obviously, the first thing you may notice is the look of the website (www.danielkirkley.com). YES; we’ve done a little update to the site. From now on, it’s going to focus on my blogs. So I guess I’m gonna have to start saying a little more than the 140 characters I’ve gotten used through through Twitter - HAHA! (www.twitter.com/danielkirkley) Don’t worry though, all other info from touring to new music can still all be found here. So let me get started…

Hmmm…so what’s been going on with me? Well, since returning from the dates in New England, things have been a little crazy. I still can’t believe that June is quickly coming to an end. I’ve really been wearing out some tread on my tires (from the trips & tour stops through FL, TX & LA). I’ll tell you, as tiring as all that car riding can be, the reward of meeting new friends & reconnecting with old ones has been more than worth it. I’m currently writing on my couch; I literally just got back from a weekend down in West Monroe, Louisiana. This is the second year that Jaime & I brought our Moments of Worship Tour down to LA. In fact, West Monroe was the site of our very first MOW tour date back in 2008. This year, we had a talented young singer from that area open the night up for us. Her name is Hayley Masters & I have a feeling you may be hearing from her in the future.

This month, however, actually started with a trip down to FL. I had a concert in Vero Beach & then played for the morning services at Morningside Church in Port St. Lucie. Besides the thrill of playing in two new places, I had the chance to spend a little time on the beach & later hung out with my good friends Tim & Heather Williams (not to mention their AMAZING kids). Heather is a STELLAR musician who I know you’re going to hearing A LOT of in the near future (be sure to check out her stuff here: www.myspace.com/heatherwilliamsmusic). After my time down on the East Coast of FL, I drove up to Orlando for a few days off. I have a wonderful friend, Charles, who works for Disney…and was kind enough to hook me up with tickets to the park. Thanks so much my friend…it was AMAZING! Now I had not been to Disney in about 12 years; its crazy how being there really makes you feel like a kid again. My buddy Kevin even took some time off from school to keep me company. I had an absolute BLAST…

After FL, I swung back up through Nashville to pick up JaimeJam so we could hit TX for Moments of Worship. We were booked at a church we played this past December for Centricity’s Bethlehem Skyline Tour (Bulverde Baptist)…so it was fun getting back. Now in the planning stages of this leg, I don’t think we thought traveling to TX would be that tough of a drive (well, at least I didn’t think it would be that bad). I mean, 15 hours in a car one way…that’s totally doable…right?!?!? HAHA!!! Let me just say that this was one of those things I had to learn the hard way. We have now determined that length of time in a car is well beyond normal physical limits. We drove in on Friday, played a concert on Saturday, played for the church’s two Sunday morning services & then drove ALL THE WAY back to Nashville (we got in around 5:30 am). We did have fun in Bulverde though…especially playing with the church’s worship band that Sunday.

As far as other “new” things in my life go… I have a brand new hard drive in my computer (since it decided to crash on my down in TX). The lesson I’ve learned from that is to ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS back up your valuable info. For the most part, I didn’t loose EVERYTHING (I had done a back-up a few months back) but it still makes life a little aggravating. However, this hard drive failure hasn’t in any way weakened my support in Apple products. YEP - I’m the proud owner of the brand new iPhone 3Gs - WOOHOO! I know I’m a dork, but I love it! Okay, I think this is a pretty good length for a blog. I’m a little tired from trip up from LA so I’m gonna turn in. Now there’s no telling what I’ve written or if it’s even made sense…so I’m sorry if that’s the case. Keep checking back, I’ll be updating a few new blogs a week (hopefully at least - hahaha)…

I hope you each have a wonderful night & until next time!

Blessings - Daniel
