Story behind the song
Originally a poem written for my sister who was told to "get her affairs in order" by her doctors. She lived another three years. Later. when mom died it was read at her funeral service for the benediction. Julia, whose voice you hear, came to visit us in July '08, wrote music for the poem and my son made this recording @6th Dimension Studios, New York. "Call me if you need me"...we all need someone like that.
Lyrics
Winds of Hope (D.Gedney/J.Claire)
May the winds of hope surround you
and help you chart your way
Find something good in everything
Stand tall and seize the day
Have many friends around you
Let angels play your song
Promise yourself you'll do your best
and that alone will make you strong
But call me if you need me
Or you think you cannot cope
and I will stand your ground for you
On the comforting winds of hope
