My Holy of Holies

Play “My Holy of Holies” by Willy Grigg
Pretty close to where I wrote this song. Taken on the day I wrote it.

My Holy of Holies by Willy Grigg 8 / 16 / 20

(with drums by Rod Meyer!)

You are (A)my my my / holy of (DM7)holies
you are (E)my help from on high my / saving (A)grace (D)(E)
you are (A)my my my holy of (DM7)holies
where I (E)find my piece of mind my resting (D)place. (A)

When the (E)road gets kind of (A)Rocky
and I’m (E)having a rough (A)ride
no(F#m)body seems to (C#m)know me
no(F#m)body’s on my (C#m)side
but (D)you’re still there
and I (E)know you care

The world keeps moving faster
Like it’s some kind of race
I start to feel exhausted
I can’t keep up the pace
But when I feel your light
Everything’s alright

This song is about finding peace. Peace can be found in nature, in art, in loving relationships. I was staring at a tall limestone cliff after swimming in a stream, when I wrote this. I was enjoying the peace of nature. Peace to all of you!

  1. I’ve been away a while, but this is good as anything I’ve heard!
    It’s big, dramatic, and a chorus line that’s easy to sing along to afterwards!

  2. My Holy of Holies captures the true spirit of peace which is energetic and hopeful. It gives a sense of well-being! Thank you, Willy
