Hi Friends,

Mankind has been singing prayers to God from the beginning of time, and so it is that this month I offer a prayer in song from a new collection called Endurance.

I’ve known of your love
And I hunger for more
Broke without grace
I’m knocking at your door

Love I long to know
Sharpen and refine
Lost without you
Oh, for love divine

I’m holding on to you
I’m holding on to you

Begin anew in me
Speak to my soul
Strength to rise
Hear my prayers of ol’

When I’m hurt by the harshness
When this cold world is heartless
All through the darkness
I’m holding on to you

~ Eddy Mann

 April Notebook

It’s life’s hills and valleys that tend to define our journey. This month I find myself back in my northern digs. This change of location is six weeks early, but loving relationships require a flexible calendar. My father-in-law took ill while we were down south and coming north was the right compassionate thing to do. So here we are, not particularly happy with the weather, but still relishing in the blessings that spring has to offer.

April’s song, Holding On To You, is the first of a collection of sung prayers that I’ll be releasing over the next few months. The collection is called Endurance and was written back in 2011. Through God’s timing it appears that now is the time to share them with you.

This past month I started reading a book called ‘The Master’s Men‘ by William Barclay. It’s not new, it was originally published in 1959 and I’m reading a 1985 edition. It was recommended to me as a character study of the Apostles. So far I’ve really enjoyed a deeper understanding of the part each disciple played in the Jesus story.

Please continue to enjoy ‘The State of Mann‘ Spotify playlist, and keep a watch out for the Homeward Bound series on facebook, twitter and instagram.

Hi Friends,

My prayer is that this months’s song will comfort and strengthen you as you continue along your journey.

Beautiful Savior
King of Creation
Son of God and Son of Man
Truly I’d love Thee
Trust I’d serve Thee
Light of my soul, my Joy, my Crown

Fair are the meadows
Fair are the woodlands
Robed in flowers of blooming spring
Jesus is fairer
Jesus is purer
He makes our sorrowing spirit sing

King of Creation
We praise Your name

Beautiful Savior
Lord of the nations
Son of God and Son of Man
Glory and honor
Praise adoration
Now and forevermore be Thine

~ Joseph Seiss, Eddy Mann

 March Notebook

The new month includes some time in Key West to catch up with the family Conchs that I haven’t seen in a few years. And the road down will allow for a visit with an artist friend which prayerfully will bear fruit in the form of a live or future in studio podcast. Stay tuned!

I’ve created a Spotify playlist that shares my ever changing soundscape called ‘The State of Mann.’ Please feel free to join me by following it. On my reading list this past month has been Margaret Feinberg’s ‘Taste and See,’ a global culinary and spiritual adventure in discovering God among butchers, bakers, and fresh food makers, that to this point has been a savoring experience.

Homeward Bound will continue as the Spirit moves. Our journeys at times can seem so isolated, but what we’re experiencing is communal in that at one time or another we’re all walking the same path and being guided by the same loving hands. So please continue to keep an eye out on facebook, twitter and instagram as these events unfold, and as always share how the Spirit moves you.

Hi Friends,

I’m releasing a new single today called ‘He Remembers.’ It was written back in the spring of 2016 and was inspired by a quote from novelist Elise Wisel, ‘God is God because He remembers.’ A free download is available at eddymann.com.

He remembers my first breath of air
He remembers because He was there
And still my Maker is with me everywhere
He remembers and He’s with me now

He remembers the first word I said
He remembers what I turned and fled
And still my Father never turned His head
He remembers and He’s with me now

He knows my pulse and the pulse of everything
Every moment ever lived and each created thing
He knows my name and the thoughts that cross my mind
He knows my heart, and the heart of all mankind

He remembers every tear I’ve sown
He remembers when I felt alone
And still my savior has never left me on my own
He remembers and He’s with me now

 February Notebook

Well as January ends I’ve settled into my southern digs and have found a relaxed atmosphere to work and play. There’ll continue to be some new music appearing in the next few months as I’m just finishing up some mixing and art work. Inspiration is everywhere here so I don’t suspect that there’ll be a slow down in the offerings.

Of note is that I just finished reading an interesting book called Jesus Asked by Conrad Gempf. It’s a relatively short read, but it opened up some interesting new images for me, like if Jesus were to meet you on the street today he’d be more likely ask you something rather than tell you something. And in response I’ve actually answered a few questions with questions of my own lately.

My newest ministry Homeward Bound has been providing some energetic feedback which is encouraging. The spontaneity of it will take some time to get use to, and the broad avenues of sharing will also be an adjustment to handle. My hope was that this could reach many of you who are at a distance from me, and or don’t have the means to participate at an event in person. It’s my prayer that the live pop-up events will continue to grow in freedom and transparency. And yes, from time to time I may be able to invite some of you to be in house. So continue to keep an eye out on facebook, twitter and instagram as these events journey on.
