I was sitting quietly one day, after listening to myself sing these songs, and I asked God. ?Why is it that you allow me to sing such beautiful words? ?The answer came immediately ?To lift you up?. It wasn?t a big voice from above the clouds or something like that. It just came quietly in my mind. It is my prayer that you the listener will enjoy these beautiful poems and that you are uplifted in hearing them, as I am uplifted when I sing them.
