The song you are looking for is called "Meet Me Here" and was recorded originally by the Pat Terry Group in 1975. I've been trying to find a copy of the sheet music for years. It has always been one of my favorit songs. It really touches the heart of the matter....why we worship, to meet God face to face.

Is that Fiona ex Chester House? The one who loves Tracy Chapman? If so your Aussie buddy is looking for you.

Hi jenny, I have just been listening to the song meet me here. I found an old cassette from 20 years ago and it was on it. It still gave me goose bumps when I listened to it. It is a bit ropey though.

I'm chasing two Evie Tornquist CD's titled "Unfailing Love" and "Day By Day". You have listed the Day by Day CD above but don't have it in stock. Can you please let me know if it is at all available and is so, how long it would take to get the CD.

Also appreciate if you have any info on the other CD - Unfailing Love.

Thanks in advance for your help

Regards,
Steve

A Shepherd's Prayer
Posted to christnet.christianlife by TheLateGreat_TBC on 2004-02-12.
Twas the night before Christmas,
And my only desire
Was peace among kids, and to rest by the fire.
I had just settled down in my favorite chair;
When I heard a small voice, and a cry of despair.
As I stared at the hearth I saw a strange sight!
Our nativity scene, in the flickering light
Seemed almost alive!
And how could this be!
One lonely shepherd was calling to me.

***
Move me closer, move me closer
Move me closer to the Child.
Let me see Him, let me hold His hand.
Move me closer to the Child.

***
As you can well imagine, I was a bit surprised.
So with a shake of the head and a rub of the eyes
I took another look, and what did I see,
Without a doubt he was looking at me.

It seems in the hustle and bustle of things
In the wrapping of gifts, and the building of swings,
In assembling his scene, I'd been a bit hurried,
And understandably so, He was a little bit worried.

***
Move me closer, move me closer
Move me closer to the Child.
Let me see Him, let me hold His hand.
Move me closer to the Child.

***
You see, candy canes and holly trim
Didn't mean a thing to him.
If it kept him from his post
Beside the child he loved the most.

So as strange as it must seem,
Whether it was, or wasn't, a dream.
I placed him back where he belonged
As he sang again his simple song.
And now when we at Christmas share,
We sing his song:
A Shepherd's Prayer.

***
Move me closer, move me closer
Move me closer to the Child.
Let me see Him, let me hold His hand.
Move me closer to the Child.
Move me closer to the Child.
