[00:00.45]I met Craig at a church called Redeeming Grace
[00:03.04]Like he understood my "I don't want to be here" face
[00:06.12]I felt out of place and I smelled like beer
[00:08.62]But he just shook my hand, said "I'm glad you're here"
[00:11.50]He said "we'll all be judged"
[00:12.89]But he was never judgemental
[00:14.51]And even though my songs don't belong in no hymnal
[00:17.27]He'd quote me my lyrics, slap me on the back
[00:20.06]Said "Man you've got a gift! How you write like that?"
[00:22.59]
[00:22.67]I know, he sounds cool right?
[00:25.57]Not your typical kid from Sunday School, right?
[00:28.60]I still ain't figured out church yet
[00:31.42]But Craig, I get
[00:33.80]Nah he can't walk on water, turn the Napa Valley red
[00:39.67]But he just might be tight with a man that did
[00:44.97]Yeah he's not the light of the world
[00:47.70]But I wish that mine was bright as his
[00:51.04]Yeah he just might be tight with a man that is
[00:56.54]
[01:08.07]You lose a record deal, all the perks fade fast
[01:10.81]Dealership said, "We're going to need to get that mini-van back"
[01:13.59]So we were down on one car
[01:15.26]And broke as I felt
[01:16.57]My wife and six kids with only five seat belts
[01:19.25]I needed help but couldn't admit, I was strong
[01:22.12]Said, "Craig, it's all good"
[01:23.70]But he knew it all wasn't
[01:25.15]A "Hey man I'm praying for you" would've been sufficient but nah
[01:28.40]He took roadside assistance
[01:30.01]To a whole other level, to sacrificial heights
[01:33.20]Showed up at the ballpark after my son's game one night
[01:36.14]In two cars, with his wife Barb watching from the other
[01:39.73]Said "What in the world are y'all doing here, brother?"
[01:41.81]He just laughed inside that old Chrysler Town and Country van
[01:44.85]With the keys, and a title, and a pen in his hand
[01:47.40]Said "Man, all you got to do is sign and it's yours"
[01:50.35]I said "No, no way"
[01:51.83]But he wouldn't take "No" for an answer
[01:54.58]Said "Please do
[01:55.81]Somebody did this for me once, just let me do this for you"
[01:59.28]We argued about it for a little while
[02:01.51]Then I teared up, and Craig smiled
[02:03.85]
[02:04.30]I know, he sounds cool right?
[02:07.24]Not your typical kid from Sunday School, right?
[02:09.97]He can't walk on water, turn the Napa Valley red
[02:15.70]But he just might be tight with a man that did
[02:20.92]Yeah he's not the light of the world
[02:23.71]But I wish that mine was bright as his
[02:27.06]Yeah he just might be tight with a man that is
[02:32.76]
[02:42.90]My pride was way too ashamed to be adequately grateful at the moment
[02:46.77]But I signed the dotted line, and I drove the kids home
[02:49.50]And when the cop pulled up beside us
[02:51.24]At the light, they didn't have to duck
[02:52.95]Because thanks to Craig
[02:54.70]They were all buckled up
