I am a drop in the ocean
I am a wave on the storm-tossed sea
I am but one out of many
With many I share victory
“Drop in the Ocean,” by Michael Kelly, a war song about teamwork! Full lyrics and chords are available on the YouTube page.

Unbroken – Michael Kelly
Though I’ve been laid low
And my lifeblood spilled
Though my body be shattered, undaunted I rise
My will unbroken
“Unbroken,” song for an injured knight, by Michael Kelly. Sort of like “The Mary Ellen Carter,” but with more jousting. Full lyrics and chords are on the his YouTube page!
Legacy – Michael Kelly
We dig too deep
Trying to rival the deeds of our fathers
We dig too deep
The children of giants, trying to stand on their shoulders
“Legacy,” by Michael Kelly. He mostly does SCA events and the like, but I (dog mod) met him at a post-apocalyptic event, and he’s not only an amazing singer, but incredibly supportive and encouraging. He got me to sing into a microphone alone for the first time (in the desert, for people wearing only leather and spikes), which took some coaxing, so I feel obligated to plug his Patreon, where he releases new recordings regularly for donors.
This one’s for the dwarves of Middle Earth, hence the beard. But don’t let the beard fool you! It’s a beautiful song. Lyrics and chords under the cut.
