While I was struggling to sleep last night, something that happened a few days back popped into my memory so I thought I should share it with us.
I received a message from a friend on behalf of someone I don't know and have never met. He wanted the lyrics of a song I wrote that was recorded years ago by an amazing group of acapella voices (God's Choir), a song I haven't sang in so long.

Apparently, this guy who needed the lyrics of the song, actually loves this song so much that he formulated his own lyrics for the melody he only heard in passing. I was so eager to please this guy that I started going through my notes and my phone just to get the lyrics since I was actually finding it difficult remembering them.
Going through my notes and phone, I started seeing many old songs and poetry I didn't remember writing. I have not even published the poetry or performed these songs before, yet I couldn't see the one I was looking for.
I then recalled that this was not even the phone I was using when I wrote that song, so I decided to try and record the song just to see if I can manage to remember the lyrics.
Surprisingly, as I was recording the song, I found out that I was singing the lyrics in reflex style with up to 99% accuracy. I decided to write down the lyrics for the guy should he not be able to hear the lyrics perfectly from the recording because of my catarrh-influenced voice.
Here was his response;
I'm glad to have the original version of this song on my phone. Your work is very good and unique I must confess. I'm actually not the type of person that hypes anyone. To be honest, I really loved it when I heard the way you sang the song, it was just so perfect and superb. I'm a huge fan and I hope someday we could meet to have a collaboration. God bless you.
These words made so much difference in my life that day, and there and then I reaffirmed a few facts:
Every action one takes is a seed that has the potential to influence beyond the scope of one's imagination.
Whatever you send into the world would return to you in great measure over consistent periods of time.
Music, poetry and art in general lingers more than I assumed.
Never underestimate the potential of a little good or a little bad.
Sadly, I have been away from music for so long that I forgot how soothing it was to me too. There was a time when I couldn't go a day without writing a lyrics, but the hustling and bustling of life took over. I think it's hard time I reignited the zeal for music which I once had. Don't you think so?
To know people out there are blessed by the words & melody God had placed in my heart has a reigniting effect that I don't think I'll want to quench again.
DOING GOOD PAYS, WORKING FOR GOD PAYS, POETRY AND SONGS HEALS.

I found that this hit home for me as well @davidbright, as there was a song that we sang in the church years ago that I really loved, in fact, can't even remember the name of it, but the men would sing one part and then the women would sing the other part and it was beautiful. I used to play it on my guitar, and I do have the sheet music somewhere around here in a box. One of these days, I need to dig it up.
Right when I was hitting "reply" it may have hit me, I think it might be "His Love Endures Forever." I'll work on that and see if I can find the music for you if you're interested.
Another excellently written article David.

I think I'm so interested in the music.. Can you do and send the song over already?? 😂 😂
Thanks for this powerful feedback.. I appreciate
Okay, as soon as I find it, and actually I'll also check youtube and see if it is there as well. I just checked one thing because I knew it was in Psalms, just couldn't remember where, but it's based in Psalms 136;
This is one that is good but it's not the version I am talking about:
Thanks so much for sending this.. I don't think I've come across this song before but I love it.. I'm definitely going to learn this...
It's a good thing you pushed yourself hard to remember the lyrics, you were able to gain confidence to do what you were once good at again.
Thanks so much dear.. I still feel that I'm still far away from where I use to be... I just hope I get to retrace my steps and become even better than I use to be..
I pray so too, all the best.
We should always try to find the time to do what we like to do. If music is one of your passions, find the time to dedicate some time to it. :)
