The Poetry of Practicality
(The songwriter finds her verse)
|
Linda was 15 and needed a song to sing with her guitar for the Christmas Eve service at church. She searched through every songbook, hymnal and Christmas Carol collection she could find. Nothing fit the bill. The date was drawing closer. The only practical solution..."I'll just have to write one myself."
"If it doesn't go well, I won't try that again." But, Come Quickly was a success and nearly 50 years later, Linda is still writing. You can enjoy some of Linda's lyrics and the stories behind the songs. |
