STORY BEHIND THE SONG
The writer of Ecclesiastes describes the advancing of age and the graying of one's hair as like a blossoming almond tree. Hence, the fields of Israeli almond trees in this video.
For a long time, Psalm 71:18 has been a favorite verse for Sarah & I. A prayer that even as we grow older, in a world where youth is often glorified over age, experience, and wisdom, God would still use us, speak through us, however He would see fit. It was obviously the prayer of the Psalmist as well.

Until I have proclaimed Your power
To another generation
To a people yet to come (v18)
