Where Have All the Marys Gone?

This is a song I wrote a couple weeks ago.
It's a different style then what I usually sing, it was fun to play.
The melody came after the words which I wrote to be serious, and reflective.
Then I chose to lighten it a little with the melody:)

"And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
...But this one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her."
-Luke 10:39,42
Hope you enjoy it.





Lately that story has become more practical to me. I realize how much I am not like Mary. I choose to spend my time worrying, planning,being busy, and various other things that distract me from listening to what's most important. Young adult years can be hard, there are a lot of decisions to make. But instead of letting those decisions and changes worry me it should remind me how much I need God. His mercy and direction. I should be spending MORE time at His feet, not less.
This is just what I have been learning lately and I thought I'd share it.
