This song was written and recorded by Mark in November, 2018, a special Thanksgiving ballad for Mosaic Church. The guitar used was a Gibson Hummingbird Pro.

“Lone Wolf” was written and recorded in 2013 at the request of Mark’s pastor Jesse Davis, to demonstrate the Biblical principal of belonging to a group rather than being a lone wolf.
