AS I GROW OLD

Posted on June 17, 2012 by Judy

In honor of Father’s Day, I am sharing a brand new song, which I wrote last week. It is called, “With Me.”

With me, when I was born, with me as I mourn
With me in every song, with me to keep me strong
With me every day, with me in every way

It was so deep. Then it hit me. I knew exactly what I would write about. It was about setting a soul free. Continue reading →
