Strelende musiek

Ek hou van 'n wye verskeidenheid musiek, en ek probeer om nie in 'n groef te verval wat een spesifieke musiek smaak betref nie. Ek luister Afrikaans en Engels, "Gewone musiek" en Gospel, Boeremusiek, Jazz, Rock musiek, Instrumentaal en a-capella, vioolmusiek en kitaarmusiek...en die lys gaan aan en aan...miskien sal ek eendag bietjie my "playlist" met julle deel.

Sedert ek na musiek begin luister het, was daar een musikant, en kunstenaar van wie se lirieke en musiek ek besonder baie gehou het. Miskien is dit omdat ek in besonder baie hou van kitaarmusiek. Ek speel self ook so bietjie. Net die klank van 'n suiwer akkoord is al klaar genoeg om my siel tot ruste te bring en my mee te voer. Hierdie kunstenaar is Don Franciso.
Die rede hiervoor is omdat hy instaat is om nie net melodie en akkoorde oor te dra in sy musiek nie, maar om 'n mens mee te voer met 'n storie en jou deel te maak daarvan. Ek het op 'n stadium tot 60 van sy songs op kasset en CD gehad. Die lirieke roer mens se hart en versterk jou geloof.

Hier is 'n uittreksel uit een van sy songs op sy album "Grace on Grace"

Soul Peace
"Words and music by Don Francisco Copyright 1997"

Soul Peace
I'll give you Soul Peace
Soul Peace
I'll give you Soul Peace if you'll just come to Me

The troubled times that this would is filled with
Can overflow the lonely soul
All the evil and the suff'rin
They take a heavy, deadly toll
But there's no tempest that can touch you
Here in My tower so strong and high
Here by My side there's sweet joy and comfort, yes there is
'Til the storm has passed you by

I'll give you Soul Peace in the shelter of My wings
I'll give you Soul Peace in the rest My Spirit brings
I'll give you Soul Peace in a place your heart can sing
I'll give you Soul Peace underneath my wings

Going your own way all is frustration
With one small candle you cannot see
The soul's in darkness without My Spirit
The limb is lifeless without the tree
But through My blood flows the peace of Heaven
And in My Grace you'll free indeed
Here in My love's light you'll see forever
And safe in My arms you'll find the rest you need

I'll give you Soul Peace -- all your heart's been cryin for
I'll give you Soul Peace -- there's no need to worry any more
I'll give you Soul Peace if you'll just open up that door
I'll give you Soul Peace that you've been longin' for

And when your feet have found the path where I have called you
And you learn to walk beside me in the way
You'll wake up in the mornin' in My Presence
And ease down in My peace at end of day

I'll give you Soul Peace every night and every day
You'll live in Soul Peace every night and day
I'll give you Soul Peace
Soul Peace
I'll give you Soul Peace
I'll give you Soul Peace if you just come to Me


It Ain't No Sin To Get The Blues
by Don Francisco

Some people when they meet you
Wear a manufactured smile
You can't tell if they're really happy
Or just tryin to be in style
It's like somebody told 'em
Only sinners ever frown
But when you're really hurtin'
It ain't no crime for feelin' down

No obedience that means sufferin'
And to some that may be news
Jesus paid our lifetime membership
But you still gotta pay some dues
So when Job's comforters surround you
And your prayers all seem refused
Don't you lie about your troubles
It ain't no sin to get the blues

BRIDGE

Now some folks dig self-pity
But others make it clear
That if it were pos'ble
They'd rewrite the Epistles and the Gospels
So that nobody, nobody, ever
Had to shed a tear

Everybody's got to suffer sometime
We all got to work out our salvation on our own
Jesus never told you pain would never get a hold of you
He said "I'll never leave you all alone"
So when you feel those tears start rollin'
Don't you get yourself confused
He'll dry your tears if you just cry 'em
It ain't no sin to get the blues

Now you can say you're doin' fine
Say there's nothin' on your mind
Denounce it and deny it
Stick you head down in the sand
Try and make out like your Superman
But ain't nobody, nobody
Really gonna buy it
