Voice Lessons




An attempt at a choral piece, this is an entry for
Voice Lessons
Voice lessons, rejoice you chosen!
You are sheep heeding His voice.
(MY sheep hear My voice)
Voice lessons require us to be
sheep heeding His voice.
(My sheep hear My voice)
Come into His company and be patient for His voice
Bide your time,
Quiet time,
Your source.
Voice lessons, just hear him calling!
You are sheep heeding His voice
(My sheep hear My voice)

(My sheep hear My voice)
Christ calls and invites us into His presence for His voice
Bide your time,
Quiet time,
Your source.

His voice is calling you now.

Understanding Ephphatha


This is a choral piece my daughter Angela and her friend Kathleen graciously recorded.  As part of the Alphabe-Thursday’s Letter U  Challenge. ♫♪ 
Ephphatha:  Be Opened
Based on Mark 7:34
1. Ephphatha, be opened
Thus says the Lord.
Deaf are commanded to hear with their soul.
Spirit, dwell within us.
Hearts closed and minds closed
We long to be filled
Only the spirit can open our will.
Spirit, dwell within us
Ephphatha, be opened.
Fill us O Lord
Ephphatha, be opened.
Open us Lord
2. Ephphatha, be opened.
Spirit’s reward.
Don’t vex the spirit.
Let Him have control.
Spirit, dwell within us.
Heart, mind, and soul
For the Lord we’re designed.
Only the spirit lets us see the divine.
Spirit, dwell within us
Ephphatha, be opened.
Fill us O Lord
Ephphatha, be opened.
We hear you Lord.

Tic Tac Toe

Alphabe-Thursday letter T challenge…My daughter Angela sings the song found almost at the bottom of my song list…http://lkazmierczak.biz/songs

Tic Tac Toe

Once upon a playground
we were happy-go-round
Time for me to grow up..
Never
La la la la-la…
Tic-tac-toe treasures,
My heart’s a skipping stone.
Playing at love is like a
Drippy ice cream cone.
We can compete with just X's and O's 'cause
Whenever we play, there is never a loser.
Oh, rules for you,
you play like tic-tac-toe. 
We steal a kiss or two, and then I fall for you.
Tic-tac-toe treasures
You’re captured in my mind.
Hopscotch and monkey bar
Rules are redefined.
You are my treasure. But not for me to hold.
We simply play this game.
My love, it goes untold.
Rules for you,
you play like tic-tac-toe. 
We steal a kiss or two and then I fall for you.
Once upon a playground
we were happy-go-round
Time for me to grow up..
Never
Refrain
Tic tac toe, I fall for you
Playground rules just won’t do.
Our friendship will remain true
But you haven’t got  a clue.
Rules for you,
you play like tic-tac-toe. 
We steal a kiss or two and then I fall for you.
Tic-tac-toe treasure
A kiss is good as gold
You are  a marvel when you
Line all your Os in rows.
I cannot wait till we make new rules again.
Boomerang pleasures we could catch
Because we’re friends
Oh rules for you,
you play like tic-tac-toe. 
We  steal a kiss or two and then I fall for you.
Refrain (2X)
Tic Tac Toe, childhood wishes go
Tic Tac Toe, hugs and kisses oh,
Tic Tac Toe, all Xs and Os
Tic Tac Toe!

Listmania

More marketing advice...I'm learning how to make lists on Amazon.com in the 'listmania' feature.  Evidently there are ways to 'tag' my book so people can find it easily, so of course I put it on my list.  You can also see what books I have on my Kindle...I did not include my entire list, but my next-in-line books are published, along with some initial thoughts.  Not sure how this helps in my marketing, but the more info that's 'out there' the better♫♪

Oddball drinking glass

Why do I always reach for that odd glass?  It doesn't belong to any set, it doesn't hold any more or less amount, it isn't more attractive...but I find I always think of it as My glass. I can't even remember where it came from, although I think it may have held a candle at one time.  Every cupboard has one, I suspect. Perhaps, because it wouldn't matter if it became chipped or broken, it gets more use.  Or perhaps, I like the individuality of it, which makes it special.  Or perhaps I am just a creature of habit and I am stuck in the same old, same mold. Whatever the reason, I will continue to use it...now if I can just address that troublesome adage about having a glass half full...maybe some other time♫♪
