Description:
God Be With You Til We Meet Again (hymn)
Text: Jeremiah E. Rankin, 1828-1904
Music: William G. Tomer, 1833-1896
For those who listen, here and Beyond....
And in memory of "droop"--Paul Lavon Davis (April 21, 1948 – April 22, 2008)
Just as with "Abide With Me," this was a spur-of-the-moment recording, far from perfect, that I wanted to share.
Lyrics:
Text: Jeremiah E. Rankin, 1828-1904
God be with you till we meet again;
by his counsels guide, uphold you,
with his sheep securely fold you;
God be with you till we meet again.
Refrain:
Till we meet, till we meet,
till we meet at Jesus' feet;
till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again.
God be with you till we meet again;
when life's perils thick confound you,
put his arms unfailing round you;
God be with you till we meet again.
(Refrain)
God be with you till we meet again;
keep love's banner floating o'er you,
smite death's threatening wave before you;
God be with you till we meet again.
(Refrain)

hearing "I Go Crazy" and your singing together at the same time!
I know Paul gave you a great compliment on your harmony!

thank you, tiler &mdash 04/25/08 - 05:23:41 PM
Thank you for the kind comments. Paul also left a lovely comment on "Abide With Me," which I posted in February, and which I had really appreciated at the time.
So posting this was partly a result of that, too.
Thanks again for your commments [ Reply to This ]

I just wanted to leave a quick 'thank you' to all those who have left comments or favs here.
When I posted this, I had no words to articulate what I was feeling, but I wanted to offer something to the community that expressed my support, and my condolences over the loss of Paul "droop."
Sometimes music best says what words cannot, and so I'm grateful that you've heard this song for what it was meant to be.
This community has been such a support to me in the past--in ways some of you will never know.
Thank you, and God bless. [ Reply to This ]

Blaine Transue has been trying to get me to sing something 'country' for a while now. (Have any old unused country tracks laying around there, somewhere...?)
Thank you for listening and commenting.

Droop. &mdash 04/24/08 - 04:44:39 PM
Below I have cut and pasted Droops Comments on my song Sunbeem
his last written words to my self. Thought you might like to read them here. Might give us all some comfort.
The Heading was One Take
Quote
Well that is really saying something and so is this beautiful composition.
You know my belief is that we have a chance to say a lot of things in our music with words or melodies. I always prefer to convey something
on the brighter side with a overall sense of goodness. You have the neat ability to always capture that feeling of happiness, hope, fun and in this case......Sunbeem!
Excellent
Unquote.
These words on your page with your wonderful song also seem the correct place to be. I am sure you agree.
Mystified are you and 'Angel; seriousely ? what a great comfort also to myself too .Words cannot express how you have moved me with your song. Simply Beautiful. And also captured my Sunbeem.
Peace Dee xx

I learned about this piece, as well as Paul's passing, from you tonight.
The news along with the song brought me to a teary sad place, and I will honor his passing in prayer tonight.
thank you for recognizing this person whom I never knew, but can now appreciate because of your kindness.
best wishes all. ~ Mark [ Reply to This ]
