"It's Hopeful Time Again" (v2, 2023)

A new version and arrangement of my earlier song, a.k.a. ”It’s Xmas Time Again”. I experimented with some different chords, inversions, voicings and chord progressions etc. and this is the result!

This was played by me using the Korg SGProX digital stage piano as a master keyboard. The main keyboard sound here is from the Yamaha Montage 8 (the great and ever so lovely Yamaha TX816 Electric piano performance which was converted from the original TX816 patch), layered with Gospel Musicians' Neo-Soul Keys Studio 2 (Dyno Rhodes) and Keyscape (Roland MKS-20). Other sounds that I have been privileged to use come mainly from the great UVI SonicPass instrument collection and the Arturia V Collection. The drums come from Native Instruments Abbey Road 80s Drummer. 

Recorded and mixed using Cubase Pro 13. Mixed with Cubase, with some very significant amount of help from iZotope Neutron 4. Mastered with iZotope Ozone 11.

Please take care of yourself and each other and please let us try to treat each other with due dignity and respect in this hopeful time of year.

One Glorious Chorus Blogpost by Stacie Eirich

I shared a Latin Pop version of this song two years ago with vocals performed by our friend Richard John (thank you Richard).  Well, here is another version of the song which existed back then that was not pursued.  As I'm scrapping the barrels, thought I might as well give it a go.  This is Celtic folk approach with a different ending where I added an additional verse of new melody & lyrics.

One of my favourite compositions.  Just see what you think.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

[LYRICS]
Let me lead you through the silver stars			
We can kiss under the moon			
And wrapped inside each others arms			
I can show how your path could be			
If you walk in peace and come along freely with me			
		
Watch the sun slip away into the night			
Hold each other till it goes out of sight			
Don't ever hide or stop thinking of me 			

(Chorus)			
I only want to be your secret dream			
No-one else can see, no-one else can dream			
When the sun comes up	and I have to wake			
Thoughts of you run inside my head			
Thoughts of all we shared			
			
If you like, we could dance under the rain			
Life will be full of magic as it begins to change			
I'm watching you thru my lattice window			
Behind the glass just like a shadow			
I can show you how I will guide your hand
	
Repeat Chorus
Instrumental break
 			
As you lay down alone and turn your head			
Feel the cold from your empty bed			
Close your eyes and keep thinking of me			
			
Have a secret dream		
No-one else can see			
No-one else can dream		
Only you can see			
When the sun comes up and I have to wake			
Thoughts of you run inside my head	
Thoughts of all we shared	

Watching you through my lattice window.......
       as the sun slips into the night.............
Watching you through my lattice window.......
       as the thoughts go out of sight

It is beautiful when you're baptized. We face the fear of believing in someone we can not see.
In this world we make decisions
long ago we had a choice
to go underneath the water
to believe
Stand for Jesus
if it's the only thing you do
gather your courage 
face the fear
soon the light will be here
Jesus will return
with an army of angels
your never alone 
Stand for Jesus

Stand For Jesus
