Heaven is 10 Zillion Light Years Away
Stevie Wonder wrote the song above in the mid 70's, and I am not sure what motivated him to write it. All I know is that with all that has happened NATURALLY with the tsunamis and the mud-slides and hurricanes a few months ago, this song has been on my mind. He never released it as a single, but it was always one of my favorite songs of his. Stevie has had a resurgence lately, and it couldn't have come too soon.
For those of you who may think that I should have some "church" song on my mind, I wouldn't argue with you. I would just request that you remember that in my day we didn't have contemporary Christian music to choose from.......therefore we were left with the Stevie Wonders of this world.
Here are the lyrics:
They say that heaven is 10 zillion light years away
And just the pure at heart will walk her righteous streets someday
They say that heaven is 10 zillion light years away
But if there is a God, we need Him now
"Where is your God"
That's what my friends ask me
And I say it's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come...
Tell me people
Why can't they say that hate is 10 zillion light years away
Why can't the light of good shine God's love in every soul
Why must my color black make me a lesser man
I thought this world was made for every man
He loves us all, that's what my God tells me
And I say it's taken Him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come...
I hope all of you get to hear this beautiful song someday. Don't we have so far to come?

I will have to check out iTunes for that one!
I'm still blown away by the exuberance of "Isn't She Lovely?" and couldn't stop humming it for weeks after baby Laura came to our family.
Funny how some songs can make you feel like you were blind ... but now you see.
