Ok guys…I finally came up with another idea...hopefully you guys wont be bad-contains religion. Hopefully you appreciate religion since the Camdens ARE Christians…so please don't be angry and don't flame me because I'm taking the time to acknowledge my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in my story ((later in this chapter…Christian song))…so on with it….
Martin woke up early the next morning and smiled, as the sunlight streamed through the window. He looked at his wife and looked sadly at her tear stained cheeks. The death of Mary, Carlos, and her nieces and nephews was absolutely tearing her apart, and he knew it. The worst part was he couldn't do anything to change it.
Martin looked at her and smiled, and thought of something to cheer her up. He began to sing to her softly.
Good morning
beautiful how was your night
Mine was wonderful with you by
my side
And when I opened my eyes and see your sweet face
Its a
good morning beautiful day
Ruthie woke up, and smiled. "I didn't know you could sing."
"I can't."
"Yes you can…you're amazing. Keep going."
I couldn't see
the light
I didn't know day from night
I had no reason to
care
Well since you came along
I can face the dawn
Cause I
know you'll be there
Good morning beautiful how was your
night
Mine was wonderful with you by my side
And when I opened
my eyes and see your sweet face
Its a good morning beautiful
day
I never worry if it's raining outside
Cause in here
with you girl the sun always shines
Good morning beautiful how
was your night
Mine was wonderful with you by my side
And when
I opened my eyes and see your sweet face
Its a good morning
beautiful day
Good morning
What a beautiful day
Ruthie smiled at her husband and kissed him, and he put her hands on her stomach. "Only three months."
"I know! Time really has flown, hasn't it?"
"Yeah it has…" just then the phone rang.
"Oh this sucks." Martin said, laughing. Ruthie kissed him and answered the phone. She talked to her dad for a few minutes and hung up.
"Ok Ruthie start talking…all I heard was 'Yeah', 'Ok we'll do it', and 'I'm sure I can find somebody to do it.' Do what?"
"Well…since this Sunday's going to be a little difficult…he was wondering if maybe I could sing at church on Sunday."
"Ok…that's great."
"I have the perfect song in mind, but it's a duet. I need a guy to sing with me."
"I'm sure somebody could."
She smiled and winked
at him.
"Ohhh no." he said, laughing.
"Please? Come on!
I'm your wife! I'm carrying your daughter…this is the LEAST you
can do for me…please? It's an easy song."
"But no ones ever heard me sing except you."
"And you're great. Please?"
"Oh alright…you're lucky I love you." He said, kissing her.
"Oh yes I am. I love you too babe."
Later that week…Sunday
Eric walked up to the pulpit to give the announcements before Ruthie and Martin performed their special song.
"As you all know, my oldest daughter and her family have all passed away. This has been a particularly hard time for us, specially for my youngest daughter Ruthie and her husband Martin as they prepare for the arrival of their first daughter. So I've asked Ruthie…and I guess Martin…if they could sing today. They've agreed so open your hearts and minds to this song. My prayer for you all is that you can just fully trust in the Lord. He is our rock."
Martin cleared his throat, and grabbed his microphone as the music started playing. He smiled at his wife and began to sing.
M: As morning dawns and evening fades
You inspire songs of praise
That rise from earth to touch Your heart
and glorify Your Name
Your Name is a
strong and mighty tower
Your Name is a shelter like no other
Your Name, let the nations sing it louder
'Cause nothing has
the power to save
But Your Name
R: Jesus, in Your Name we pray
Come and fill our hearts today
Lord, give us strength to live for You
and glorify Your Name
Both:
Your Name is a strong and mighty tower
Your Name is a shelter like no other
Your Name, et the nations sing it louder
'Cause nothing has
the power to save
but Your Name
