From the recording Freshman 61
I wrote this song for my 2nd daughter, who has grown into a beautiful young woman, yet still retaining an element of innocence, and loving the simple things like rainbows and butterflies. A short song, but it kind of captures the essence and heart of who she is, and the woman she has become. Love her to bits.
Lyrics
Rainbows and butterflies
Taking walks along the shore
A heart that follows Jesus
She would never ask for more
Rainbows and butterflies
Taking walks along the shore
A heart that follows Jesus
She would never ask for more
Joyfulness is her sunshine
Sunflowers in summer rain
Pretty dresses in an ocean breeze
Freedom that love obtains
Rainbows and butterflies
Taking walks along the shore
A heart that follows Jesus
She would never ask for more
Rainbows and butterflies
Taking walks along the shore
A heart that follows Jesus
She would never ask for more
Her gift is in her giving
Influence on those she serves
Following her hopes and dreams
Where faith and love preserves
She loves rainbows and butterflies
Taking walks along the shore
A heart that follows Jesus
She would never ask for more
Rainbows and butterflies
Taking walks along the shore
A heart that follows Jesus
She would never ask for more
Rainbows and butterflies
Rainbows and butterflies
A heart that follows Jesus
Rainbows and butterflies
She would never ask for more
Rainbows and butterflies
