My groovy brother and his adorable, huggable, lovable family gave us one of our favorite Christmas gifts. The gift? A Billy Jonas CD of children's folk music. If you have XM/Sirius radio in your car then you've probably heard Billy Jonas' Vitamin Alphabet on XM kids, that's where our family was first introduced to Billy Jonas.
On the latest Billy Jonas CD there's a song titled You Are Not Alone, which I've begun singing to our boys at bedtime. The lyrics are simple and inspiring. I keep getting strong urges to blog them, so I'm giving in and following my heart on this one. I hope the lyrics comfort or give hope to anyone, big or small, that might be feeling alone in our great big world. You are not alone.
Happy New Year's to you all. I hope that 2010 is a fabulous year for each of you!
You are Not Alone
Happy Accidents by Billy Jonas
When you're lost in the woods and the wind and the wandering calls you onto your knees
Lay your hands on the earth and a whisper consoling will rise through the trees
Oooooooooo….. Ooooooooooo……
When you wake in the night and the shadows are hungry for all that you've hidden from sight
Put your hands on your heart, feel the rhythm accompany the song that leads to the light
CHORUS:
You are not alone … you are not alone…
You are not alone… you are not alone
When you move through a crowd and the faces keep turning away to the gray of the sky Raise your hands through the clouds to the starlight that's yearning to offer 6 trillion replies
CHORUS
You are not alone … you are not alone…
You are not alone… you are not alone

I got teary seeing the lyrics written out. Then I took a minute to sing it to the girls. Thanks for sharing Billy Jonas with your friends. His songs helped us get through deployment.
