Some ask us how
How can we sing
In a strange land

They can't seem to seem
To comprehend
They dont understand

That the message
In our song
Is from the heart

It doesnt matter
How near
Doesnt matter
How far

But if there be one
That is touched
By the things
That we do

Then we're satisfied
Satsfied

And we did
What we came
To do

Then we'll rejoice
Among ourselves
Till we get
Where we're going to

Everything we do
We do it for you

My lord
You put it down
For us
So we put it down
For you

Brian McKnight (born June 5, 1969) is an American R&B singer-songwriter, arranger, producer, and musician. He is a multi-instrumentalist who plays eight instruments including piano, guitar, bass guitar, percussion, trombone, tuba, flugelhorn and trumpet. He is one of the very few leggiero tenors in the pop genre. McKnight is perhaps most recognized for his strong falsetto and belting range. McKnight’s work has earned him 16 Grammy Awards nominations, though he has never won. Actually, he is currently tied with Snoop Dogg for the record of most Grammy nominations without a win.
