Below is is a song that was sent to Top Catholic songs by band member Azar (a physician who says he is a latecomer to songwriting. He used to drum for punk bands).

Icon: A Christian acoustic folk spiritual with Blues and Classic influences

Lyrics for Icon:

What did you think when you saw
our God in your arms?
What did you think when you saw
your son on a cross?
Look on us with your eyes, those same eyes
Talk to us with your consoling eyes

What did you think when you saw
our Lord as a baby?
What did you think when you saw
Him hung on a tree?
Look on us with your eyes, those same eyes
Talk to us with your consoling eyes
