  • This contemplative ballad was inspired by Psalm 52 and the near-fatal car crash in 1995 that almost claimed Martin Smith's life. It was during the weeks of his recovery that Martin decided to become a full-time musician.

    The Delirious? song "August 30," which appeared on their 1997 King of Fools album, was inspired by the same pivotal event.
