Not much reflection here...just a song to share which is particularly potent for us.
The Song| Words and music by Ginny Owens
Don’t ask me where I’m going,Or how long I’ll be away,
Cause if you ask me where I’m going,
Don’t know what I’m gonna say--
Life’s an ever-changing landscape,
With hues of brown and gold and green,
But every morning I awake
To the same dull desert scene.
So I’m leaving,
Leaving my old neighborhood,
I’m headed for a foreign land,
And if you’re wondering why I would--
Chorus:
I’m following the Song,
It’s calling me to come along,
To the places I have never gone,
I’m following the Song.
Verse 2:
I’m off to chase the rainbows,
And dance beneath the stars,
I’ll learn to fight courageously
For the things that move my heart-
‘cause no matter where it leads me,
It never leads me wrong;
How empty would my soul be
If I’d never heard the song.
And in those moments
When the darkness closes in
I will be still and wait
Till the music comes again-
Chorus 2:
I’ll listen for the song
Hear it when I’m all alone,
It will lead me safely home-
Oh the song.
Verse 3:
So won’t you listen,
Can’t you hear that brilliant melody?
Oh And you will hear it louder when
When you let it set you free--
Chorus 3:
Listen for the Song,
Hear it calling out your name,
Your life will never be the same
When you’re following the Song.
Oh, the Song!
Calls to you from deep within
You’ll never know a truer friend-
Keep following the song.
