I was sitting in my backyard admiring the trees and  flowers, listening to and watching all the birds with my grandson.
I thought even in these miserable Covid times - I am still so blessed. After my grandson left I picked up my guitar and started playing around with some lyrics and came up with this. I think the tempo is about 120 BPM - but what do I know about music ?  :)

[D]In all its worth for all to see, he the created the Earth for [G]you and me

[D]Oh, Heavenly light so all could see, beautiful creatures [G] living free




[G]Then came the night with clouds passing by, stars and the moon shining [D]in the sky


[D]’Shining in the sky oh so bright, angelic ’s beauty til the [G] morning light

Chorus

Oh [C]God Created [G]heaven [C]and [G]Earth, gave [D]every living thing a [G]heavenly birth


Oh [C]in all his glory from[G] up[C]a[G]bove, he [D]still watches over with [C]all his [G] love


.


.


[G]Then came the land, and the seven seas, animals and fish living [D]as they please


[D]Living as they please,it was so nice, yeah God had created a [G]paradise




[G]God put Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, gave them everything that [D]they’d be needing


[D]Oh he gave them everything they required , just about anything their [G]heart’s desired





[G] On the seventh day he sat back and took a rest, thought that the world was [D] truly blessed


[D] yeah the world was blessed and looking fine, he said now take care of this [G]world of mine

WOW !   JUST WOW !!

Crystal is awesome- what a voice - perfectly suited for the blues.  I could not help think that she was a bit like Janis Joplin- only a better singer.
Every song on your list is performed stellarly.
Thanks so much for this find. A great way to start the weekend !

Looks good Beamer !!
I like the way it rhymes, but not perfect - like keep/jeep      it sutley reminds us that love is not perfect either.

Way to go - looking forward to the rendition!

Phill

Yes indeed !
I am in awe of how fast time has passed by.

I want a "do over" !   I wish I could go back in time and just enjoy my kids more - seems I was always so busy.

I must admit I was jealous of my sons in law bc they got to marry my daughters - it's really hard to accept that anoter man can take your place after so many years of caring and protecting them.

Very cool song Phill - Darn - I wish I had your abilities !!

Hope you are well and not driving Ann too crazy !  smile

We should collaborate again on something, I always love how you take my songs and make them magical !

Best wishes

Phill - you and I think alike - I just told Pam yesterday that I feel like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day !

Jeff- hope to hear you perform it.

I loved the poem - quite an accurate glimpse of life today.
I can tell you, as a teacher - "online teaching"  isn't teaching - it is just delivering information.
I need to be with the kids - the social interaction is an immense part of the learning process.

as Phill had ina song we did together - " take me back to the good ol' days"  !



Nicely done Peatle !

A talented musician- loved the harp

It was a bit too much howling and yelling for me - I prefer my blues a bit mellower.

I wish I could play and sing like him - he is a showman for sure.  Kinda reminds me of Van Morrison,

Just WOW !!! HOLY GUITAR PLAYING !!!

What an amazing young gentleman.
5 colors in her hair with McFly at the Palladium was by far my favorite - but he is a prodigy for sure.

It makes me me want to just put my guitars in the closet - he was that good.

Thanks for sharing.
A fantastic way to end the week.
Hope you are healthy and well and I hope our cuntry starts to ease back to a sense of normalcy.
