For the Soul

I have to warn you in advance. This is a very sombre page. I have put it here, for anyone that is swimming through some rough storms in life. Everyone goes through those moments.

You will find here a collection of songs that give me strength in such dark moments. I will keep updating as I come across them.

She must have been around for a while but I have to admit I never heard of Lynda Randle. Her songs are very sombre, and I have to wonder whether she has sang any ‘happy song’. But her songs echo my current state. I have been a very ‘happy’ person most of my life but lately, I cannot say so. I am going through some challenging moments. I am the ever self-analyzing type of person, and I am not liking the results of my self-analysis. My husband says that I am being overly hard on myself. He maybe right, but this is the time. I feel strongly that this year is an important one for me to make certain decisions about my life. Anyway, here’s Lynda singing ‘God of the mountain’

 

 

And here is Don Moen during one of his down moments. Note the streaming tears down his face. Still, I will go ahead and put a smiley Sometimes we have to be honest with God and tell him like it is. I used to package my prayers, so that God does not think I am acting ‘whinny’. Not now. The other day I found myself telling God just what was in my mind.

 

 

And here is Lynda once more. This song is a oldie from back in the day. I call it a woman’s song. Many atimes we need to be reminded to take it ‘one day at a time’. This is especially for the woman that juggles family and work.

 Rescue me. Maybe I am finally succumbing to the stress of moving country. This song, is for me.

 

yesterday I cried my last tear, Mary Mary

You raise me up so I can stand on mountains.
