One Wish

Celia Whitler came and was apart of our worship team this morning. She is a singer/songwriter from Franklin Tennessee. She has become such a special and inspirational person to the members of our church at Suncreek United Methodist Church. She was a very good friend of our pastor Kathleen Baskin-Ball who passed away from a very courageous battle with cancer in December. Many of the songs on this CD were inspired by our Pastor, Kathleen and her faith, hope, and witness. Whenever I hear Celia sing, I feel close to God and know that He is near. Celia is the real deal and you can check her out at http://www.celiamusic.net/. She wrote the following song and sang it at Kathleen's Celebration of Life service.

One Wish for You

If I had one wish
I'd wish for you,
You'd know only love
Will see you through
From morning to morning
You'd live in this truth
If I had one wish
I'd wish this for you


If I had one dream
I'd dream each day
I'd dream you a life
Of simple grace
Grace that brings peace
To each of your days
If I had one dream
I'd dream you grace

(chorus)
One wish
One dream
One song to sing
May your life be as full
As all you bring
I wish you today
You'd have all you gave


If I had one song
I'd sing of you
I'd sing of the big ways
Your love is true
I'd sing of the small ways
You do your part
If I had one song
I'd sing from my heart
(chorus)
One wish
One dream
One song to sing
May your life be as full
As all you bring
I wish you today
You'd have all you gave.

Celia's new book is called One Wish for You~Celebrating the Women in Our Lives. It is a book filled with beautiful photographs, inspirational quotes and scriptures. It includes a CD in the back that has five songs including One Wish for You. Thank you Celia~You filled our cups!!
