Book Excerpt

Not a Blueprint: It's the Shoe Prints That Matter

There we sat listening to Linc as he sang and played his guitar to that well-known funeral melody, “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday.” This beautiful piece was originally recorded by G. C. Cameron. Now with Linc singing it, his
vocals rocked the church. The lyrics alone are so electrifying and meaningful.
Linc started out the song by guitar-picking for just a bit. His approach at the beginning of the song was very gentle. And he sang in a genuine and contagious manner, being on key with every note. I felt an emotional and powerful connection. I couldn’t help but wrap my heart around its lyrics,
even when he held onto a note. With my eyes softly closed, tears rolling down
my checks, and my body rocking right to left then left to right, the music drew
me in. Sitting there listening to every word, every single line, and every vocal
note, I was being taken on an emotional high ride. As the melody flowed, I
sank deeper into the words of the song. The tone of his vocals was nothing
less than breathtaking. I didn’t ever want him to stop singing. It was truly
an elegant and appropriate song. And I knew I had found solace through its
lyrics.
