i decided to try to clean up a little bit around the house this morning. as is my habit at the outset of such chores, i started searching for some appropriate background music to accompany my activities. in so doing, i came across the album from which this entry's selected song comes. it had been quite a bit of time since i'd heard this particular collection of songs and thought it would be nice to become reacquainted with it while doing my best to make a dent into the messiness that has grown around me.
when this particular song came on, a song that i suspect was envisioned as speaking to young children (if it's title is any indicator), i found my heart strongly moved by the promises contained with it. it was at the moment that my heart connected with the deep longing that the song evoked that i thought to myself, "it never really does ever leave us, this desire for a love that will last for all time, does it?"
so here is a song for both young and older. may this heart's desire be fulfilled in all of us.
