MARGI HARRELL
FOR
MELANIE's FAVORITE SONG




 


This was Melanie's favorite song, "Jesus, He Is The Son Of God", which was sung at her funeral. Melanie had recorded this song, sung by Lilly Knowles, on a cassette tape and played it constantly the last two months of her life. I think when you read the words you will know why.


"JESUS, HE IS THE SON OF GOD"



The busy streets and sidewalks they suddenly grew still
As a man came through the entrance of the city.
As He touched and healed a blind man with a piece of clay
With trembling lips you could hear the people say.

Jesus, Jesus , He is the son of God
Jesus, Jesus, the precious son of God
Sweetest rose of sharon came to set us free
Jesus, Jesus, He's everything to me
Yes, He's all the world to me

    


The footprints in the sand along the sea of Galilee,
Where thousands came to hear and to see Him.
There He taught of love and kindness, yes He brought a better way,
As He spoke they'd turn and whisper and they'd say.

Jesus, Jesus , He is the son of God
Jesus, Jesus, the precious son of God
Sweetest rose of sharon came to set us free
Jesus, Jesus, He's everything to me
Yes, He's all the world to me

    


Then the air grew cold and the sky turned black as they nailed Him to a tree.
There He died for every man and every country.
But the price He paid and the blood He shed is changing lives today,
And with joy and praise you could hear the people say,

Jesus, Jesus , He is the son of God
Jesus, Jesus, the precious son of God
Sweetest rose of sharon came to set us free
Jesus, Jesus, He's everything to me
Yes, He's all the world to me

    


YES, HE'S ALL THE WORLD TO ME.

I would personally like to thank Les Taylor for sending me the words to this song. I had tried to locate the midi and then I contacted Les Taylor and he could not locate one either.

Then God sent a wonderful lady into my life, Margi Harrell, she graciously sent me the midi Goodnight Sweetheart that plays on Melanie's opening tribute page and after reading about Melanie's favorite song she remembered playing it in the 1970's and 1980's.  She so graciously took the time to make this midi especially for Melanie's page and I can never thank her enough for her kindness and thoughtfulness. I never expected to find a midi of this song and I will never be able to repay her for this wonderful gift. Please visit Marji Harrell on her web site at:

If you have enjoyed both of these songs that are playing on Melanie's site, I know you will love hearing all of her songs.



IN MELANIE'S MEMORY
She Shared The Song
The Last Two Months
Of Her Life
She Played This Song
Everywhere She Went
The Words Are So Beautiful
It Might Help Someone
To Surrender
Their Life To God
And Spend Eternity
"IN HEAVEN"
