MMissary

MMissary - a husband and wife team. More Country to Country Rock/Light Pop. We Are ALL A WORK IN PROGRESS.

Marty and Marcella equal MMissary. More songwriters and musicians than performers who wish to share their songs and music. Christian Songwriting is our main focus though Marty does do instrumental arrangements. Marty is a former Administrator for the Christian Songwriting Org and has written articles for the Christian Magazine "Songwriting The Journal". Marty has and does collaborate with other songwriters. Marty has spoken at songwriting workshops. Marty is also a retired Music Director and still participates in his church choir. Imperfect as we are we receive good comments and have seen some usage of our works by others. After all.."We are all a work in progress".

Story behind the song

Moved to write this one for an Aunt who was near death and we sang it at her funeral almost 6 months later

Lyrics

Heaven's Where She's Bound
Music/Lyrics by Marty Ward
Copyright 1999


She wakes up in the morning, with a twinkling in her eyes
She remembers the loving, her family and their lives
All the crying babies that she once caressed
All the sleepless nights she so patiently spent
The sons and the daughters that she often dressed
With her heart always giving and calmly content.

Chorus:  Heaven's where she's bound
             She'll have a new address
             Heaven's where she's bound
             Her reward she'll soon possess
             She'll see Jesus face to face
             And feel His warm Embrace
             Because heaven's where she's bound.

Many years have now come and gone, with Jesus at her side
Thru the trials of each new dawn, in Him she did abide
Caring hands that are worn and sometimes do tremble
Hazel eyes now are clouded and dimmed by the time
Cannot search for the scriptures in her worn out Bible
She remembers His words for their etched in her mind.
