Steve Bliss’s version of Don’t Know You
After I learned Grant Taskerud arranged and recorded Help Me Jesus, I was reminded that over a year ago Steve, recorded his performance and arrangement of my song “Dont Know You”.
The Bliss family are a wonderful family doing a great work creating sustainable relief for the poorest of the poor in Panama through the foundation they founded named Deadwheat. Sometimes we have fun together singing Sundays at the Guari Guari, a local pub. He’s a real talent who has taught me a lot.
Don’t Know You 
I wrote this song about leaders in Christianity who may be surprised God doesn’t know them in a good way due to their illicit misuse of the Faith. I speculated in the song that these people’s preaching may even help others, but not themselves before their God in the end. The song also refers to the victimization of the innocent by leaders in power. Of course, the song is not imply at all that there are no good ones out there. I think I was kind of upset about something when I wrote the song :).
I think Steve captured the meaning and angst of the song perfectly. I enjoy his guitar work a lot.
