My former busking partner Phil and I had tried without any success to find some places to play there, so I was pretty desperate the first night I went out, trying to contribute my share for the rent of my new home. Remember that verse, "Prove Me now, if I will not open the windows of Heaven and pour forth such a blessing that there will not be room enough to hold it?" Well, that's how it was. At the end of the night, my pockets were nearly bursting with cash, and I brought home 15 times the amount that I needed.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:10;" >There is a God, and He loves me.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:10;" >His second sign to show me that was Judith, a girl about my age I met one night in one of the bars where I played, and that I also wound up falling head over heels in love with (sort of a chronic disease at age 17...), and for whom I wrote this song.

I was by far the youngest member of the band, and the front man was twice my age. In 1980, at the age of 17 I was traveling through Spain with an American fellow musician and his wife, and working on a melody to accompany that lick, and some lyrics to it. At first I tried to interpret it as a love song for a girl (I was badly in love with a girl named Shalom at that time), but later realized that no one fit that perfect description, except Jesus, or God Himself, so I added the last verse to make it clear that this was a love song dedicated to the living God.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/804190961780458199-1899254081962396180?l=songbio.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Dave Mendozahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09777797582008844877noreply@blogger.com
