A New CD is Worthwhile

My Reba: Duets cd arrived a couple days ago, but today was the first chance I had to listen to it.
several good songs, but the one I wanna get chummy with is

Everyday People, a duet with Carole King

College Kids turning 21
in their senior year Spring Break was here
They headed south…
but not for sun on their skin
Where the storms had been
It was hard, fixing windows and shingles and doors
And tired never felt so good before…

Everyday People are the ones who are making miracles
And it’s beautiful,
Everyday People lifting up the world
Like an answered prayer, I thank God they’re there
They’re the ones who care
Everyday People…

Doctor said
“Good News we caught it soon enough, we can clear this up”
But she’s thirty and single with two kids to raise
Times are tough these days
So her friends made some calls and the word spread around
How her bills got paid she don’t know how.

Everyday People are the ones who are making miracles
And it’s beautiful,
Everyday People lifting up the world
Like an answered prayer, I thank God they’re there
They’re the ones who care
Everyday People….

A little girl takes her Mama’s hand
And walks inside saying “Please don’t cry”
As the people who built this house just for them
Laugh through the tears as a family moves in…

Everyday People are the ones who are making miracles
And it’s beautiful,
Everyday People lifting up the world like an answered prayer,
I thank God they’re there,
They’re the ones who care,
Everyday People…
Everyday People…

Everyday People…

there is an insert which says Reba supports Habitat for Humanity
“Together, we can eliminate poverty, one family at a time.”
