Gotta Give It To God


Hello Girlfriends!!
So long....so very long since I have written a blog posting. I know. Forgive me?
Since I went back to school to study for a masters degree, the pace of life increased tremendously--as if I were not already living on a speeding train bound for endless track ahead!

Much has transpired in the ensuing months, and I promise I will blog on some of it soon. I have a two week break from class right now, and I am trying to catch my breath (and decorate my special space called my "office.")

In the meantime, I want to share a little ditty (funny word!) that I started writing in the hotel last May as we waited to move from Virginia back to Chicagoland. Finding it in my unpacked pile, I polished it up today thinking how very appropriate the lyrics are for this day!

NOW...who can put it to music?????? (Obviously not this girlfriend right here!)

Prayers, Hugs, and Love to All of You!

Gotta Give It To God

I wanna live
I wanna dream
I wanna be that
Girl I seem

There’s so much I gotta do
It’s hard just walkin’ in these shoes
Feeling so overwhelmed, it’s true,
Just can’t stop singin’ these blues

I know I gotta…

(Chorus)

I gotta, gotta, gotta
            Gotta give it to GOD
I gotta, gotta, gotta
            Gotta give it to GOD
            Give it to GOD
            Give it to GOD.

One day I’m up,
Next day I’m down,
In this crazy head
Life’s turned around.

If I wanna live
If I wanna dream
I know I gotta go
To that Living Stream

I know I gotta…

(Chorus)

I gotta, gotta, gotta
            Gotta give it to GOD
I gotta, gotta, gotta
            Gotta give it to GOD

            Give it to GOD
            Give it to GOD.
