We did! it! I say "we" because I could not have done it without you. My song, Miracle, reached #1 on the charts for Missouri on the number one music website last month. A big thank you to all of you subscribers that have supported me. I am including a link to a recording of Miracle when I first wrote it circa 1980. I thought you might find it interesting. http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=8264509 May was a very productive month for me lyric-wise. I am also including one of them with this newsletter. Do any of you write music or poetry? I would love to hear any songs that you have written, or poetry you have penned. I wouldn't mind if any of you tried putting music to lyrics I have written. I enjoyed collaborating with other writers. There is no other news to speak of. I pray you all are doing well. I appreciate your email and I pray God's blessings on you as you continue to walk in His glorious light. Jeff "BE MY FRIEND" By Jeff Leslie 5/12/2016 How I loved the times we talked within the garden Then I cried for 40 days because you sinned Though you turned your back on Me Even blinded eyes can see I gave everything for you to be My friend Be My friend Be My friend I gave everything for you to be My friend Oh, I know to you it seems that I am hiding What I truly Am you cannot comprehend And it's best to be surprised For you won't believe your eyes All I have for you if you would be My friend Be My friend Be My friend I gave everything for you to be My friend For you I gave my only Son So you could see what love becomes His blood was shed to wash your sins away Then after death He rose again And now My Spirit lives within Just listen with your heart, you'll hear Me say Be My friend Be My friend I gave everything for you to be My friend
