Story Behind The Song
A friend of mine encountered a life-threatning illness and needed a surgery that cost 1.6 million dollars. Her insurance refused to provide autorization for payment...without the surgery she would die. I wrote this song to be used as a forefront to a campaign to raise awareness, and funds...this caught the attention of the local news and eventually the executives at the insurance company. They gave the approval and my friendhad the surgery and now is functioning fully im great health.

Lyrics
Afterwhile
the long and weary night will turn to day
Afterwhile
the struggles you have faced will fade away
Afterwhile
the pain you have endured will dissappear
and you'll know the answer to the question why
Even the broken will mend
even the fallen will stand
even the lowly will find strength again
and even the sun will rise
after the storm has passed
and the tears you've cried will cease...Afterwhile
Afterwhile
the longing for redemption soon will end
Afterwhile
the doors that have been closed will open
and you'll understand the significance of why
Afterwhile
you will see
Afterwhile
you will know
there's mending for the angel's broken wings
you'll fly again
and soar into the wind
Afterwhile
Afterwhile
Afterwhile
