Not What It's About

"In the Bleak Midwinter" by English poet Christina Rossetti was first published in 1872.  In 1906 Gustav Holst composed a setting to these verses now sung throughout the world.  At this dark time in humanity it is our sincere hope that you will refect upon these verses with us and ponder the hope and true meaning of Christmas.  

Thank you, Oddrun, for your voice which breathes life into what would just otherwise be music.

Lyrics:
In the bleak mid-winter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,
Snow on snow,
In the bleak mid-winter
Long ago.

Our God, heaven cannot hold Him
Nor earth sustain,
Heaven and earth shall flee away
When He comes to reign:
In the bleak mid-winter
A stable-place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty —
Jesus Christ.

What can I give Him,
Poor as I am? —
If I were a Shepherd
I would bring a lamb;
If I were a Wise Man
I would do my part, —
Yet what I can I give Him, —
Give my heart.

Misk - Butterflies Don't Speak (Soulwave)

4. Paddy Brings Peace To My World  - my other grandfather was a Wellington pilot in the RAF during World War Two. He sadly died in 1943 so I never met him. His death left a huge impact on my grandmother (who never married again) and my dad. She said he was very loving and thoughtful and felt he would have been thinking about them right to the end. That’s the approach in this song. His nickname for her was Paddy. No idea why!  Mastered by RCD Audio. 
Paddy brings peace to my world 

Crete below us, and in this night sky
Angry fires around us as we fly
They want to stop us but they can’t win
Got to see the ones we love again  

Duralumin beams form a latticed frame
Carry and protect us from flack and shells and flame 
We’re just so frightened, five anxious scared young men
Just want to see our homes again 

And I pray that they’re safe
I did what I could 
Took leave and followed Anderson’s plans
and dug 3 metres into the Surrey soil 
14 pieces of aluminium, a small sump in the floor 
All I could do to protect them from this damn war 

Because 
This crazy world has lost its mind
Angry, cruel, insane!
Paddy brings peace to my world
She soothes and she calms and she’s kind
I keep her here, in my heart and my mind
Paddy brings peace to my world 

A publishers accountant , a chippie and two clerks
and a teacher all together, up here in the dark
We’re doing our duty, the best we can
But we’ve taken too much damage and I doubt we’ll land 

Radio messages, saying we’re on fire and losing height 
We’re trying to put them out, we’re all paralysed with fright
Just trying to make it back

And I’m imagining what’s next for her
She’ll be told at first that we’re missing
Maybe dead, or prisoners of war
But she’ll never give up on me 
That’s why I’m trying to make it back 
to Paddy 

Because 
This crazy world has lost its mind
Angry, cruel, insane!
Paddy brings peace to my world
She soothes and she calms and she’s kind
I keep her here, in my heart and my mind
Paddy brings peace to my world

Piękne marzenie – "dotknąć nieba" – brzmi tak inspirująco. To wyrażenie można rozumieć na wiele sposobów: jako dążenie do osiągania swoich najważniejszych celów, realizowania marzeń, albo po prostu czerpania maksymalnej radości z życia. 😊 A beautiful dream – to "touch the sky" – sounds so inspiring. This expression can be understood in many ways: as striving to achieve your most important goals, make your dreams come true, or simply enjoy life to the maximum. 😉 Un hermoso sueño, "tocar el cielo", suena muy inspirador. Esta expresión se puede entender de muchas maneras: como esforzarse por alcanzar sus metas más importantes, hacer realidad sus sueños o simplemente disfrutar de la vida al máximo.

Touch The Sky

Ésta también aparecerá en RELIQUIAS, también cambiada (una versión debe ser bien diferente de la original, si no no tiene mérito), ya veréis.
This one will also come up in RELIQUIAS; also very different as I think it should be for an interesting version.

Gritos de cristal - Piano Version

This is a remake version of my song. Original one was my acoustic guitar & vocal. And I tried to make this song more enjoyable with some arrangement.
Thank you so much for all the listening and very nice encouraging words

Lyrics 
We’ve been wasting time
Struggle wastes your love
I feel (feeling) you fall on ground
Shadowy days fall on you
I’m so ,,, waiting for you…
I can’t keep my eyes off from you
And I hold old love
You must be beautiful for ever

We’ve been wasting time
Struggle wastes your love
Stay with me for now
Find your way so close
I’m so,,,waiting for you
I can’t keep my eyes off from you
When I  hold old love
You must be beautiful for ever
Oh　(the) life will be fine
I can believe in all your fate
You can feel it for now
A cloud is flow
(When)Open your eyes forward
I can’t tell you why
I’m so ,,,waiting for you
I can’t keep my eyes off from you
When I  hold old love
You must be beautiful for ever

Waiting For You
