I'm posting a song a day from the Rise Up Singing songbook, which you may or may not know. It's a pretty invaluable resource for song leaders, and useful for anyone who likes to sing in groups. The book doesn't include the melodies to the songs, just the lyrics and some chords, so I’m trying hard to find the tunes I don’t know, learn them, and post them on YouTube for anyone to learn. That’s where these videos are hosted; the blog is just pretty packaging.

Prophecy (Bonus)
Song: Prophecy
By Lauren Ligocki
Find her original recording here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMJb_Gnmosc
Can I speak freely?
No I will not tell you why
I act like I do
Around you
Well I will,
I see something
In you
That I'm into
You'll never know
That I wrote this song
About you
Unless I'm wrong.
And my prophecy
Isn't coming 'round
To push
Me down
I guess I don't know you
This way we function great
You won't tire of me
So quickly
We only miss
Each other by
A moment
Each time
You'll never know
That I wrote this song
About you
Unless I'm wrong.
And my prophecy
Isn't coming 'round
To push
Me down
If the flowers in the vineyard
At this time of the year
Were a boy, I'd be bitter
Toward him
He would be so charming
And his body would be nicer
And he would be funnier than I could be
If only this song could make you love me
I'd never stop singing it
You'll never know
That I wrote this song
About you
Unless I'm wrong.
And my prophecy
Isn't coming 'round
To push me down
