  • Coming soon to a couch near you! We’ve been booking some intimate home shows in the Portland area this summer and are looking for some more homes to invade. So if you would like to host an Acoustic Living Room Concert please let us know!

  • “Cowals’ tunes are full and captivating whether he is playing solo acoustic guitar or accompanied by a handful of other talented musicians. The multi-talented artist’s flute work and lackadaisical vocal octave jumps throughout certain songs also give these Biblical verse driven tunes a Dave Matthews feel.” —Kelly O’Neil

New Song “Wings”

  • August 26, 2014

  • · New Songs

I’ve been busy lately and haven’t had much time for songwriting but here is a new song finally! This song was inspired mostly by Isaiah 40:28-31 after helping our Portland To Coast team this year. I walked last year but due to an injury I was along as moral support and official photographer this year to cheer on my wife and our baby! This is a song about relying on God’s strength to help us on this path of life, he gives us wings like eagles and lifts us up with his strength when we are weary!

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
—Isaiah 40:29-31

Do you not know that in a race all the runners run,
but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to
get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games
goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown
that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that
will last forever.
—1 Corinthians 9:24-25

Lyrics

Wings

Some days the road I’m on seems
Littered with stones and thorns
They try to trip me up and break my stride
But now I’m wise to their wily ways
I won’t be caught off guard
No, gonna run this race to win the prize

Wings, oh wings, you give me wings
My feet they fly
It’s just as if I could reach up, touch the sky
Wings, oh wings, you give me wings
Like eagles fly
You give strength to the weary
No I’ll never grow, never grow tired

As I walk through the Valley
Of the Shadow of Death I’m worn out
From grief and shame and brokeness
Still you’re right there beside me
For you’ve walked this road before
So you know where all the potholes are

Even youths grow tired and weary
And young men stumble and fall
But those who put their hope in you
Will renew their strength
No, they will never faint

So I will run and not grow weary
I will walk and not be faint

Isaiah 40:28-31; Isaiah 41:10; Hebrews 4:14-16; Hebrews 12:1-3
Psalm 23; Philippians 3:12-14; 1 Corinthians 9:24-27;
2 Timothy 4:7-8; Acts 20:24

For a limited time you can download my Easter EP "In Their Place" featuring 3 songs from my 2008 "Coffee Shop Songs" CD & 3 songs from the new CD "White" coming out later in 2014. These songs share the power of the cross, Jesus' death and resurrection, and his salvation and amazing grace. I am so thankful that Jesus now intercedes with the Father on our behalf, "When You look at them, see me in their place!"
