This song was written in five minutes while sitting on my porch in Nashville watching the sun go down signaling the start of Yom Kippor. Yom Kippor used to be the worst day of my life as I was raised to think of it as a day of suffering. When I grew old enough to see it as a day of giving up the things of this world so that I removed all barriers between G-d and me, it became a very sacred day for me. This song expresses the profound peace I was feeling at the time.
