God is faithful
A covenant to keep
Your trials weighed heavy, a storm untamed,
Yet steadfast you stood, unbroken, unnamed.
Through shadow and struggle, your courage burned bright,
Seeking solace in prayer, through the longest night.
Patience, a sword, sharp and divine,
Each whispered plea, a sacred sign.
Bold was your heart to wait and believe,
Knowing that after hardship, ease would weave.
And now the dawn breaks, roses unfold,
Promises kept, as foretold of old.
The Lord's mercy flows, steady and deep,
A covenant sworn, a vow to keep.
Your strength a beacon, your faith a light,
Resilience crowned in the glory of right.
For those who endure, who bend not, nor sway,
The garden of peace blooms in their way.
Walk now among the blossoms, pure and free,
Harmony whispers through the trees.
The battle is won, the reward is clear,
The Lord’s love eternal, drawing near.

'20/20'
"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.
