The intrinsic beauty and the greatness of John Denver's Annie's Song can make love to every person able and inspire. I once said that every dance could be seen as a love song to God This is certainly true for Annie's Song. It 'was written as an ode to his ex-wife of Denver. Physically and mentally happy, he wrote it in just "ten-and-a-half minutes per day on a ski lift" [1] in Aspen, Colorado - nestled in the rich and feelingsThe sensuality of nature.
The poem, which is the adoring song is unmistakable. The music, along with texts, it is scary and terrible is the perfect companion for the expression of our love of God and his creation. Perhaps with the knowledge of melody, we can reflect on the words:
Annie's Song (John Denver)
Fill up my senses like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert, like asleepy Blue Ocean
Fill up my senses come fill me again.
Come Let Me Love You, I give you my life
I would drown in your laughter, let me die in your arms
I would lay down beside her, let me be with you
Come Let Me Love You, come love me again.
Gospel relevance of Annie's Song
Can God can fill our senses? We our lives to God? And maybe the second Psalm 23, you can lie down in green pastures of God, drownlaugh and die in his arms? We may be ready and available? Already?
God has given us the ability to lift, with our senses, our intuition, our thoughts and our feelings. And 'the person of the Holy Spirit, the leader of inspiration, so that the life of a paranormal flavor.
Perhaps you've heard "life like this in a moment, the pure wonder of life and being a special child of God? It may be that perhaps Jesus your personal Savior, becreate - perhaps for the first time - a reverence and joy in you. Yes, it is both real and wonderful. We are able to drink deeply of it can fill our senses like no other, nor the wealth created a wonderful world can compare with this bread of life.
Holy Spirit, come fill me again, give me life I never knew.
