    Day 16: Songs that Make Me Want to Cry

    I actually have two songs that can bring me to tears at the drop of a hat:  Troubles of this World and Here I am to Worship. Troubles of this World, sung by Mahalia Jackson during the funeral scene in my favorite movie, Imitation of Life.  It was also my father’s favorite song and was played during his funeral. Here I am to Worship sung by Heather Headley.  When I listen to this song, I just visualize Christ suffering all sorts of torment, being nailed to the cross and then rising after three days for me ~ I can’t help but to weep way down in my soul…. Is there…

    Day 1: My Favorite Songs (I Can’t Pick Just One)

    I love music, unfortunately, I’m not very musically inclined.  Well, except when I’m in the car ~ then I turn up the radio and totally rock out to some of my favorite songs.  Sometimes, if I’m really “feeling it”  I’ll pull over on the side of the road and try to force the kids to sing along with me. I couldn’t pick just one song because there are are so many that mean a lot to me for various reasons, so I decided to break them down into categories and offer two selections from each one.  Overachieve, much? Classical Somewhere in Time by Maksim Rhapsody on a Theme of Paginini…
