When you hold her hand
Feel the sorrow and the pain
When she feels that life has no more meaning
You give her hope again
When you hear him cry
See the sadness in his eyes
Nothing else can make him so disheartened
But you give him comfort
And the courage to live his dreams
You give everyone
Who’s feeling down
A chance to be loved
You were there when he was crying
Hold her hand when she was cold
You give everyone
Who’s giving up
A reason to live
Even though the world is changing
But your love will never fade away
Someday he will learn to fly
You are the wind beneath his wings
Someday she will find her heaven
Where all her dreams come true
You give everyone
Who’s feeling down
A chance to be loved
You were there when he was crying
Hold her hand when she was cold
You give everyone
Who’s giving up
A reason to live
Even though the world is changing
But your love will never fade away
Even though the world is changing
But your love will never fade away
I composed this song recently to commemorate a special occasion. I dedicate it to everyone whose work involves interacting with people. May you continue to touch the hearts of the people you meet and make a significant difference to their lives.

Corrinne May

Everytime I listen to her songs, I can't help feeling that Corrinne May is God's gift to the world.
Blessed with an excellent voice and a wonderful talent for songwriting and composing, her songs are always filled with love, peace and joy.
The beautifully written lyrics convey the message of hope, optimism and compassion that each of us is special and can make a significant difference to the people around us if we try.
When I first listened to her song, Same Side Of The Moon, I was mesmerised by her flawless voice that is so soothing to the heart and soul. "I know I can't be so far from you, if we're both looking on the same side of the moon." Indeed even though we are living in different parts of the world, we share the same spiritual and emotional needs for love and companionship.
In her song, Angel In Disguise, Corrinne tells the story of ordinary people like you and me and how our little acts of love can touch the hearts of others around us. "Take a look at the ordinary, don't need to look for paradise. You could be next to an angel in disguise." Living in a world where people focus on materialism and tangibility, this song serves as a timely reminder for us to cherish our loved ones and to constantly shower them with care and concern.
In her new song, Five Loaves And Three Fishes, Corrinne shares with us a biblical story about a little boy who gave his small portion of lunch to Jesus with the faith that He can use it to feed thousands of people. "Take my five loaves and two fishes, do with it as you will, I surrender. Take my fears and my inhibitions, all my burdens, my ambitions, you can use it all, to feed them all." It tells us that no matter how small our offering may be in the eyes of man, it is recognised and appreciated by our Heavenly Father and we will be rewarded accordingly. It also reinforces the notion that our little gifts of love may appear insignificant on the surface but cumulatively they have the powerful ability to change the lives of others.
Indeed every song by Corrinne May teaches a priceless lesson that inspires me to self-reflect every time after listening. In our endless search for identity and meaning, we often get disheartened by uncertainty and disillusioned by failure. But Corrinne encourages us to be patient and to persevere in our faith even when the world thinks otherwise. Someday the long wait will be over and we will find it all worthwhile.
If you are nursing a broken heart, fighting a troubled mind or living a shattered life, head down to the major music stores and purchase Corrinne May's albums today. Her beautiful songs, delivered by her crystal-clear voice and her most sincere sentiments, is the perfect therapeutic remedy for heartache.
