During the winter of 2009, Come Wind recorded their debut EP at Red Red Studios in Nashville, TN. Engineered and produced by Joshua Silverberg (formerly of Edison Glass), this handful of songs is slated to be released in the early summer of 2010. Come Wind are pretty jazzed about the EP, and are determined to promote it from every mountaintop they can climb to and in every valley they can crawl through.
Even in the midst of their 'fledgling' status, Come Wind have ample experience with the incredible joy and goodness that music can bring. Truly, there is within music something both vitally human and vitally Other, an experiencing through string and rhthym and voice and song of Presence and holiness. It is this intimate, dynamic experience of both music and the Presence of I AM that Come Wind hopes to share with its listeners. All four members know themslves to have been so blessed; as a result, they desire nothing more intensely than to share this blessing with others.
Understandably, the band is excited and anxiously anticipatory about their future. Come Wind has successfully saddled the ol' music-beast, and it is with true vigor that they must now hold on for their dear lives. No matter which path their adventure takes them on, the members of Come Wind remain confident that the Spirit of God will guide them to exactly where they should be.
Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.

All the same
come wind Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Against the sinners and the whores.
We forgot what we're made of.
Everyone's dirt is the same.
We're all made from dirt.
Sacrifices have I made
How hard have I tried?
I'm looking for something you haven't asked me to find.
I'm covered in your blood.
But does it flow through me?
It's a war
and don't let anyone tell you it's not.
There are things we can't see
that we have to understand;
and we don't fight with our hands,
but with our hearts.
And we can't forget
That everyone who looks like an enemy
is really just a hostage.
Everyone who looks like an enemy
is really just one of us.
We are all the same
we are all the same
By his breath we were made
and we all have one name
None of us would have escaped the flood,
but by such sweet love,
We are all the same.
As kings are not saved
by the size of their troops,
So we are not saved by our own merits,
but through what we've been allowed to inherit.
The song "All the Same" by Come Wind highlights the idea of war and how everyone involved is the same no matter what side they are on. The lyrics "Actors fighting wars against the sinners and whores, We forgot what we're made of, Everyone's dirt is the same" conveys how we all come from the same place, which is dirt. It emphasizes that no one is better than the other and we should treat everyone with respect regardless of their background or moral standing. The second verse acknowledges the sacrifices made during wars and questions the purpose of their obedience. The line "But does it flow through me?" questions whether we are willing to take the same action as the person we are following. The chaos and confusion of war are highlighted in the line "There are things we can't see that we have to understand, and we don't fight with our hands, but with our hearts."
The chorus emphasizes that we are all made from the same dirt and had God's breath breathed into us. "None of us would have escaped the flood, but by such sweet love, We are all the same." This line alludes to the Biblical story of the flood and how God chose to save Noah and his family. However, it also highlights that we were all saved by God's love and are all equal.

Actors fighting wars
There are people playing roles, fighting invisible battles
Against the sinners and the whores.
They are fighting against people who are deemed immoral
We forgot what we're made of.
We forgot that we are all made from the same dirt
Everyone's dirt is the same.
No one is born superior or inferior to another
Sacrifices have I made
I have given things up
When you've just asked me to obey?
When you've asked me to submit to your commands?
How hard have I tried?
How much effort have I put in?
I'm looking for something you haven't asked me to find.
I am looking for something that is not within your orders.
I'm covered in your blood.
I am affected by your actions.
But does it flow through me?
But does your actions affect me directly?
It's a war
There is a conflict happening
and don't let anyone tell you it's not.
And do not let anyone convince you that it's not happening.
There are things we can't see
There are invisible elements playing a role
that we have to understand;
that we need to take into consideration
and we don't fight with our hands,
And we are not simply fighting physically,
but with our hearts.
But with everything we have and are.
And we can't forget
And we must not forget
That everyone who looks like an enemy
That everyone who looks like an adversary
is really just a hostage.
is really just trapped in this conflict.
Everyone who looks like an enemy
Everyone who looks like an opponent
is really just one of us.
is really just as human as we are.
We are all the same
We are equal.
we are all the same
We belong to the same human race.
By his breath we were made
We were all created by the same divine entity
and we all have one name
We all belong to the same group
None of us would have escaped the flood,
If there were a disaster, none of us would be saved.
but by such sweet love,
But through love so profound,
We are all the same.
We are all connected.
As kings are not saved
No one can save themselves,
by the size of their troops,
no matter how big their army may be,
So we are not saved by our own merits,
No one can save themselves through their own accomplishments
but through what we've been allowed to inherit.
But through what we have received as gifts.
