"WIND BENEATH MY WINGS"     by P.H.Cook

Although I had heard this song many times, it took on a 

new meaning for me when I heard it at a funeral. A 

co-worker had recently become foster parent to her three

nieces. A couple of weeks before Christmas,on a Christmas

outing with their father and his new family, they were 

killed in a traffic accident.

At the funeral the priest said a lot of people had asked 

him WHY?

And his answer was that in Heaven God had a Christmas

Chorus, and that that year, he realized he needed more

voices, so he took the three girls. Not long after that

the Church choir sang "Wind Beneath My Wings".

For some reason that song became linked with those words

and now, every time I hear it, I think of the Christmas

Choir and God needing more voices. It's beautiful and 

sad at the same time.
