EPIC ICELAND | Dust (Music Video) by Eric & Monique
Join us on a cinematic family adventure as we explore other-worldly Iceland which is a straight up awesome sauce experience. Watch till the end to see the BIGGEST WATERFALL WE'VE EVER SEEN!
Dust is a song that we wrote inspired by Genesis 3.19; Isaiah 40.12; the book of Job and Psalm 103.14 and explores the grandeur of God as the source of life and a reflection on the beginning of the creation of humanity. 'From dust, you were created! To Dust, you will return' (Gen. 3.19).
DUST is a track featured on our album 'Everlasting.' Buy a SIGNED physical copy of this album at our official shop or download/stream the song for anywhere you buy or stream music online!

//
You hold time in Your hand
Each finger bares the weight of lifespan
And who am I to say?
Lord, this is my day
Who am I to say?
Lord, this is Your way
You guide each sun through space
Each star has a name, has a place
And who am I to say?
Lord, this is my day
Who am I to say?
Lord, this is Your way
Cos I am but dust
We are but dust
And Who am I to say?
Lord, this is my day
Who am I to say?
Lord, this is Your way
Cos I am but dust
We are but dust
Cos I am but dust.

DO NOT WORRY, MY CHILD | THE INSPIRATION
The song is inspired by passages Matthew 6;25-34 and Philippians 4;6-7. Also further inspiration came out of the struggles we have had in unknown financial situations faced while doing music as our main thing. A real life family tragedy of sucide (my uncle) due to mental health and anxiety also heavily impacted the style and lyrics of the song. So for us this song is pretty raw and has been recorded live in our office. We hope you enjoy it! We would love to hear your feedback on the song and hope that you are blessed by it.
