Reminiscing

I'm reminded of a young lady in our church community running up to me after church service gushing with the news of her upcoming wedding in August. "Miss Lee, I want you to write a song especially for my wedding! Say yes, please!" I was so flattered that she wanted me to be a part of her most precious event. That was years ago (See A Special Love in Leap Over Walls, pg.11)

A Special Love
By Lee Waire

A special love in your life,
A special light in your eyes
A special touch, when you touch,
With special meaning.

And when your glances chance to meet--
It's "Hello" so sweet
The angels shyly look away...and smile
This special, special love overflows in your heart.

A special love in your life!
Yes, we've heard.
Congratulations!

We've stopped what we're doing to wish you
the best, and march with the chorus,
singing, God Bless! God Bless!
Joining our hands, and our hearts
All on one accord, we pray.
God keep you in perfect harmony

Together, always remembering--
That you care, that you share a special, a very special love!
Together!
Always remembering!
How much you care--
How much you share--
A special, a very special, love.

Something new...

Just recently my son Nathan aka Nate Zen Sapien, asked me to compose some music for his film project, which I did. The name of the composition is Coco's Song. What is too hard for God? Oh, that sounds like a song too (Smile). By golly, it is a song (LOW pg.187).

What Is Too Hard For God?
By Lee Waire

What is too hard for God?
What is too hard for God?
What is too hard for God?
Ask yourself, "What is too hard for Him?"

The answer wipes away all tears!
The answer wipes away all tears!
The answer wipes away all tears!
Ask yourself, "What is it He can't do?"

Day fades, at last, into night--
But what is night but day without light!
Strong shoulders bend as if no hope,
Ah, but Faith stands and shouts, "I know"
(I know, that I know, that I know, that
I know)

Nothing's too hard for God (There's nothing
too hard for God)
Nothing's too hard for God (There's nothing
too hard for God)
Nothing's too hard for God!
Ask yourself, "What is it He can't do?"
I tell myself--Hold on!
Hold, if you hold alone.
Feel the earth shaking beneath my feet--
I say, I know He's got his hand on me (Know,
that I know, that I know, that I know!)

Love You,
Lee
