First - All glory, honor and praise will always and forever go to Jesus Christ in whom I live, move and have my being Acts 17:28.
Story behind the song:

The lyrics he wrote moved me so deeply, as being a rideshare driver, I could relate to the 2nd verse about the panhandlers. I see the homeless every day while driving passengers for my job. I asked Danny if he would consider allowing me to change a few of the words as I could hear Jesus in his song. He said yes and what you hear is our collaboration to make this song all about our love for Jesus, love for music and love for people.
This song is on the new album "The Return of the King" due to release early 2020.

Street East of the River
Danny Childress/Wendy Mitchell
I sit at my piano "where I play at 3rd and Beale"
trying to think of a song to play that their hearts can feel.
The tip jar seems so empty at the end of the night,
but when the show is over, it's so good to know you tried.
So play a song to remember about the "love I've found",
"theirs one who can heal" the troubles around us, fill our lives with joy,
a song about Jesus and how He pulled me through,
on a street east of the river, where I learned to sing "about You".
The pan handers are restless, beg you for a dime,
they wait outside the doors, just like their dreams they left behind,
"they turn to the bartenders", whose pouring drinks to get by,
"We need only the love of Jesus", to see the world through their eyes
So play a song to remember about the "love I've found",
"theirs one who can heal" the troubles around us, fill our lives with joy,
a song about Jesus and how He pulled me through,
on a street east of the river, where I learned to sing "about You".
Where I learned to sing "about You".
