Got a Song in Your Heart?

I love music. That's no secret to anyone, I don't assume. I like many styles, many groups, and have a long list of favorite songs. I simply can't narrow the song list down to one or two. It's just impossible for me. The list of favorite groups, however is much shorter, and I can make that pretty brief, of course starting with the McGruders. On the short list is the Greenes, Jeff and Sheri Easter, the Booth Brothers, Gaither Vocal Band, and the Collingsworth Family. Gold City is growing on me, but I'm not sure they've made it to the short list yet.

Anyway, I don't think I've ever posted a Booth Brothers song / video on my blog before. Seeing them in concert is probably one of the greatest delights I've experienced. I was reminded that they sang this song yesterday while listening to XM 34. This is on the list of my favorite songs in the world! Probably close to the top. It's a very motivational song for me. It speaks exactly the way I feel. Eternity is just entirely too long to get side tracked by the short term. With that being said, I think this song explains itself. I simply will not walk away!




Since I've started on the Booth Brothers, I'll give you another song to enjoy. this one is of a totally different caliber. I'm posting it for a multitude of reasons. The first being is that it is one of the first songs I can remember my mom singing in church when I was a little girl. Laura will at least appreciate the memory of that.

One of the other reasons I'm posting it is that the studio this is being recorded in the same studio where the choir just completed our CD. The guy at the soundboard is Paul Corley - the producer of our CD. My alto group stood right around where Michael, the tenor, is singing, and Jeremy's group, where Jim Brady is sitting. The entire video offers an array of memories....all good....

Note: the green writing will disappear soon into the video.....not soon enough for me, but it will disappear. Don't know why it's there.

Beautiful. I have always loved "He Came to Me". Who originally sang these songs?
