Stand By Me

Yesterday when I logged on to check my email, on the news page, something caught my eye. Actually, it was a song title: "Stand By Me". A group of musicians from around the world were showcased singing this song. Neither had met the other, (that I'm aware of) and they were each performing the song on their own. I think the musicians are or could be street musicians - hence the title of the website: www.playingforchange. The producer "mashed" them all together, and I thought the results were great. This is one of several songs done this way. I checked out the website, and the one other song I listened to was equally as good. I am not promoting "rock" music, but when a song has a good message, I don't mind it (as long as the music doesn't make we want to throw my head against the wall - lol!) I think "Stand By Me" is a classic and personally, I like it, for what it says. We all need someone, at sometime. Hopefully, its the Lord we turn to, but when I need that "human" voice, its nice to know I have someone to "Stand By Me"! (And I do have two wonderful, encouraging, friends that stand by me - My Aaron & Hur!- My prayer warriors!)
