Late have I found you…
I just bought, on sale from The House of Praise, a CD that was released in 2000 called “The Mercy Project”. It boasts of recordings from 12 of the top Christian, pop, and gospel female artists around. All benefits go to Mercy Ministries America. The artists are - Michelle Tumes, Point of Grace, Darlene Zschech, Martina McBride, Lisa Bevill, Amy Grant, Erin O'Donnell, Christine Dente, Donna Summer, Jill Phillips, April McLean, and Kim Hill.
I like all the songs, they accompany me these days and speak of my questions and desires to God. My current favorite is this one, which really sounds better than it looks. You should hear it as it’s a wonderful, uplifting song:
TAKE HEART
Donna Summer
(Sudano/DiGesare, 2000)
(From the album "The Mercy Project", 2000)
Take heart
Even though you find it hard
To catch your breath
Much less to smile
Take heart
Even when your sky is dark
There'll come a day
The clouds will go
And you'll know once again what life can be
When you feel all the joy it can bring
If only we could understand what God only knows
Maybe then it would be easy letting go
But if the spirit lives forever and true love never dies
There'll always be a light in your soul
Take heart
With each and every tear your cry
The strength you need
Will be yours in time
Take heart
Someday's not that far away
There is that place
Where hope will abide
And you'll find that your heart feels deeper now
Through the love that's been lost with goodbye
If only we could understand what God only knows
Maybe then it would be easy letting go
If the spirit lives forever and true love never dies
There'll always be a light in your soul
Always remember to treasure the time
So many questions with no reason why
Life passes by
So it goes
If only we could understand what God only knows
Maybe then it would be easy letting go
But if the spirit lives forever and true love never dies
There'll always be a light in your soul
There'll always be a light in your soul
(If only we could understand what God only knows)
Maybe it would be easier
(Maybe then it would be easy letting go)
So take heart
(If the spirit lives forever and) true love never dies
There'll always be a light
Always be a light
(There'll always be a light) Always be a light
In your soul
In your soul
Take heart, take heart
Then it would be easy
(Take heart) (If only we could understand)
It would be easy letting go
(Take heart) (If only we could understand)
It would be easier, easier letting go
(Take heart) (If only we could understand)
Ooh
You
Are not alone
(Take heart)
