Here is my contribution to Jim Adams’ weekly feature, Song Lyric Sunday. His instructions were to pick a song with a message of empowerment.

Song Lyric Sunday

For Song Lyric Sunday, Jim Adams is asking for a "song that includes the act of depending, leaning, relying, or trusting another." As I began jotting down songs that might work for this, I was surprised at how many I came up with. When I began to narrow it down, I had some great songs. … Continue reading Song Lyric Sunday →

For Song Lyric Sunday, Jim Adams has asked us to pick a song written or performed by someone who was born in the month of June.

Song Lyric Sunday

Last week, I took part in Jim Adam’s’ “Song Lyric Sunday” and I thought I would do so again. This time around, he wants writers to pick a song about grass, cows, beef, condiments, fries or fast food.
