Lullaby I know a little love song my Mama used to sing. She would sing it for the babies and rock them off to sleep. Just a little lullaby with story meant to grow. A baby born in Bethlehem many years ago. A simple little love song into us all she poured. Her voice so full of love in worship to our Lord. Song about a special boy who puzzled those around. A song about a young man leaving His hometown. Simple song of beauty about the loving Lamb. She always had a tear then for the broken man. She cried as she smiled she loved the stories end. How the living Son of Man returns to us again. I‘ll always see my Mama as she sang her song. How I long to hear her since she has been gone. I sing a little lullaby my Mama sang to me. Her tears are in my eyes as I sing to my baby. Oh Lord I know a love song my Mama used to sing. Now planted in a new heart my son drifts off to sleep. bleeding... "Tis ink coming from his arm, Captain!" |

Daniel~ I love the softness in this piece. Precious memories waft to mind - hoping that my own children always remember the lullabies. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

a million thanks to y'all! really appreciate the imput! Been in the studio working on this and it is going to be very nice. Recording it with just a heartbeat drum tract and alittle soothing srings and an almost whispered vocal tract... difficult to record cause it keeps putting us all to sleep...lol thanks again love ya! bleeding...

Thank you all greatly! It took a certain amount of courage to wade past my critique statement and I appreciate each of you! gratefully, the artist once upon... known as "bleeding" |
