Episode 45 - the story behind the song "Fields of Green"

I've been telling the story behind the song for the last 12 weeks of the podcast, this is a bonus addition to what can be heard on my "proof in the mirror" CD. In the fall of 2012, we laid to rest the body of a six week old baby named Lydia Rose Green. As I prepared to do her memorial service, this was the song that the Lord gave me. This podcast tells that story, and plays the recording of the song (I recorded it in the garage).

As roses bloom in His time, we learn too, and we try To trust again, and hope is on the rise   Bridge: Prince of Peace Lord of Lords We fall into your arms   So, Lord Heal my heart Heal every part Someday we’ll dance with you, in fields of green
