about

It tells the tale of the trip, memorable for all sorts of reasons. It made me mindful of how God takes hold of things even before we know it. What could have been a bad thing in fact became a good one.
'The mind plans the way, but God directs our steps' Ecc.16.9

lyrics

The leaf that does not wither, on the branch that will not die
Connected to the body and the crown held up on high
Throughout the summer’s growing ‘til flower and fruit are done
The leaf fall and the pruning, as season’s end is come

When springtime sap is rising, new life within is stirring
Where old leaf once was clinging , the sunlight brings new birth
This cycle of renewal; the circle of creation
The almighty affirmation, this life, this life is good.

To live it is to love it, in every way we grow it
And though we may not know it this tree it dwells within
By our fruit we show it, and others then may know it
That every day we grow it this tree of life within,.

Love, Joy, Peace, and Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Gentleness
Faithfulness and Self Control , The fruits the Spirit grows
The leaf that does not wither, the branch that will not die
Connected to the body and the crown held up on high

about

Paul Lucas Maryport, UK

I've been a music man since my mid teens and songs emerge when something prompts at the inner place and there's no telling when that will happen.

This collection of recorded material spans a good number of years - and hopefully there is more to come.

Music for me, is both a mood maker and a communicator, so I hope these offerings give you both food for thought and grounds for a good mood. ... more
