New Music - from my heart

Many of you know I recently had the opportunity to see my younger brother (picture above) a few months ago, for the first time in 15 years.  It was a time filled with mixed emotion of joy and heartache.  In fact, tears fill my eyes tonight as I sit here at the kitchen table, sun almost down, praying God could somehow reach his heart and heal it.

This afternoon, I felt this little soulful urge to sit down in front of the piano and wrote the song attached below (words and music).  Keep in mind, this was only recorded by the use of my cell phone.  I would be honored if my lovely blog peeps would not only listen to the song but if you would send up a prayer for his very broken heart tonight.  He needs a miracle of healing and hope in his heart.

Love you all, very much!

    Amazing song, Alexandra!! So moving...and beautiful! I'm left with tears, touched. Although hard, I know your brother will be moved deeply by hearing his heart's cry so melodically rendered.

    Still amazed how you can just write a song like that from scratch in just 20 minutes! Wow, serious talent! I'm blessed and humbled knowing you and having you be a part of my life, enriching it that much more, taking the pieces and putting it together into something new and beautiful. Thank you for your heart and your heart for others, esp your brother.

    You are one seriously talented lady. Not only does the music of art flow from your pen, but it trips out of your fingers, along the piano keys & dances from your heart to your mouth like an angels voice from above. That was so beautiful Alexandra; my heart is squished, *hug* Mo x
