I've been curious why the Savior would refer to Himself as the Great "I Am." I'm not sure if I know what that means. But one day, as I was reflecting on our journey of becoming like Him, I realized that when we conjugate the verb "to be" it changes to I AM, he/she/it IS, we and they ARE.
I found it fascinating that the command to "be" something would result in the answer of "I am" or "I am not." For example: "Be patient" would change to 'I am patient" or "I am not patient."
Without making this too confusing, I tried to write this song about the journey of "be"coming; how in the process to become like our Savior we, too, conjugate the verb from "be" to "I am" - so we really are becoming like Him.
(Sorry for this midi .mp3 - it makes it seem like this song has no feeling, pauses or slowing of any kind. I hope to do a better recording, but for now this will give you an idea of how it sounds.)
