For You Brother give something really special with Father Help Us, a song that opts to be honest as opposed to being flashy. John Davis and Phil Noah have made a very devotional song that is not a performance but rather a personal prayer.

A Quiet Prayer in Song: For You Brother’s “Father Help Us” For You Brother give something really special with Father Help Us, a song that opts to be honest as opposed to being flashy. John Davis and Phil Noah have made a very devotional song that is not a performance but rather a personal prayer. This song is all about that silence, that sense of needing a sense of order and solitude in the world, at a time when the world seemed so loud and raucous. The vocals of Phil Noah are the pulse of this song. There is something raw, weathered about his voice that unites doubt, pain and hope in a most human way. He does not sound polished or too confident and that is what makes it work. His flaws in delivery make the song be as powerful as it is where each word feels real and incredibly relatable. John Davis is extraordinarily restrained in the production. The guitars are warm up without being overpowering and the arrangement allows the song to breathe freely. There is no sense of press or crowd. It all goes at a pace allowing the feeling to sink in. The lyrics remain simply beautiful and straightforward. It seems genuine and earthly, as the call to the middle of the song is humble, and it only goes to confirm that vulnerability can be extremely powerful. Father Help Us is an intelligent, heartfelt work addressing the idea of thoughtfulness, humility, and the trials of existence.
