Written with the question in mind
a one man show
Hi. My name is Douglas Murphy and I hale from Montreal Quebec Canada.
I have been playing around this 'craft' for a while now and have always enjoyed getting my 'stuff' out there.
Lately I have been playing around with AI generated vocals and melodies. I hope you enjoy what I have to offer.
Story behind the song
Wondered and ask a question.
Lyrics
Did He Know
[2020-11-26]
[V]
Luke and Matthew both agreed
the baby boy was born.
In the town of Bethlehem,
that became our Christmas morn.
Born to the Virgin Mary,
raised a carpenter's son.
Wonder what his life was like
once it had begun?
Break:
[V]
Can close my eyes and imagine
a sandaled wearing little boy.
Ignoring his mother's warnings
not to drag his heels and get left behind.
Open markets, the sights, sounds,
the rich, the poor, the lame.
How seeing He saw any difference
how it sparked his flame.
[C]
Did He know He was special?
For how long would His light shine?
Did he know? He'd pick me up
when I drifted, fell behind?
Did He know what He'd become?
And after that, forevermore?
The embodiment of life and love in
our hearts, minds, and souls.
Break:
[V]
In a world full of pain and darkness,
His love became our truth.
That flourished in the heart and mind,
never fading like the dreams of youth.
Destined to save us
with His wisdom and His words.
He did that all for one and all
with the sweetest song ever heard.
[C]
Did He know He was special?
For how long would His light shine?
Did he know? He'd pick me up
when I drifted, fell behind?
Did He know what He'd become?
And after that, forever more?
The embodiment of life and love in
our hearts, minds, and souls.
[B]
Did He know His words would frighten,
drawing enemies all around?
Did they understand once silenced His
voice would be the only sound?
[C]
Did He know He was special?
For how long would His Light shine?
Did he know? He'd pick me up
when I drifted and fell behind?
Did He know that with his death
He'd be guiding us with His hand?
This newborn babe, the growing child
who grew into the man?
