On a Lighter Note

My theme song is "Pray" by Tina Cousins.

That is one song I would be quite happy to play all day, every day, and not get tired of it. It sums up my philosophy of life beautifully. You can all play it at my funeral (if the world goes on that long.)

(quote)

What a miracle is life

The fields are high and the fruit is ripe

So hold out your hands

Yeah hold out your hands

And you’re the same as me

You breathe the air I breathe

And we don’t understand

Yeah we don’t understand

And if you don’t ask questions you won’t know why

So say a prayer for the time while there’s still time so

Pray for good and pray for love

Pray for peace and pray it’s enough

Pray for salvation

Pray that we’re right

Pray one day we’ll open our eyes and

Pray for them and pray for us

Pray one day we can live as one

Pray for the children whose time is to come

Just pray they forgive us for the stupid things we’ve done

We all see the same sun

Each day a golden praise is sung

To the wonder of man

Yeah to the wonder of man

And when we look why can’t we see

All the riches that are free

Oh we don’t understand

Yeah we don’t understand

Pray for good and pray for love

Pray for peace and pray it’s enough

Pray for salvation

Pray that we’re right

Pray one day we’ll open our eyes and

Pray for them and pray for us

Pray one day we can live as one

Pray for the children whose time is to come

Just pray they forgive us for the stupid things we’ve done

In His Time

In His time, in His time

He makes all things beautiful

In His time

Lord please show me day by day

As You are teaching me Your way

That You do just what You say

In Your time.

Lord my life to You I bring

May each song I have to sing

Be to You a lovely thing

In Your time

And for my funeral I would also like When Peace Like a River

What a great question. I don't have a theme song yet...but before I would have to say it was "There is a light that never goes out" by The Smiths.

I heard a song once where the words went like this and it moved me to tears:

In a land not far away

a little girl sits crying, she's only 3

All alone she sits in her bombed out home

No one needs to tell her, war is on

But to the armies around her

She's just another refugee

Another war statistic

In a land where someone's fight for right

Is another person's loss of life

This little girl faces life alone

And God, she's only 3 years old!

Chorus

For the sake of the children come quickly Lord

For the sake of all the children, come soon

All around this cruel world,

their little cries go out unheard

There was another verse but I don't remember it. By the way, if anyone knows who wrote this song or where I can get a copy I would like to know. It was written by an SDA.

For the sake of the children, come soon.

Wow, that's a powerful set of lyrics. Thank you for sharing that, Taylor.

Does anybody know where we can hear what it sounds like?
