Resta Burnham - A Gentle Voice For God

click title to listen to podcast!

A few months ago, I had the pleasure of hearing Resta Burnham sing songs based on the Course in Miracles. A Course student herself, she has heard the voice as well as songs

with a bit of humor... and in

some cases, a lot of humor! She has been an ACIM student off and on for over 30 years and she has been hearing the Voice for God for all these many years. In fact, she has over 13 music cd's with her gentle insights. This one uses humor in an unusual way:

You and Me Babe

"It's you and me babe. You meet all my needs.

Our meeting was fate - don't you agree?

You are my salt and I am your pepper.

Love between two can't get any better.

I'll love you, dear, always, forever and ever.

It's you and me babe.

It's you and me, babe. Ain't relationship sweet?

Just you and me, babe. You make me complete.

You are the eggs and I am your bacon.

Here is my heart: It's yours for the taking -

as long as, sweet one, a few changes you're making.

It's you and me babe.

It's you and me babe, so why are you crying?

I'm doing my best - it's you who aren't trying.

You are my bread and I am your butter.

I'm going out, and when you recover,

Just give me a call. I'll come be your lover.

It's you and me babe.

It was you and me, babe, and the something changed.

It seems whatever I do, you find fault and complain.

I give you my all and still you feel needy.

When we make love, you say I'm too speedy.

You don't like my friends and you won't let me be me.

That's all for you and me babe.

I feel so alone, and this can't be right.

I'm sure God will send me a partner for life,

someone who'll be the lint in my navel,

who's gentle and kind, sweet, willing, and able

to love me forever and sit at my table:

Just the two of us, babe.

Now look who is here. Could it be true?

My soulmate has come. My dear, is it you?

You are my salt and I am your pepper.

Love between two can't get any better.

I'll love you, dear, always, forever and ever.

It's you and me babe."

This song was written and performed by Resta.

To be fair, nearly all of Resta's other songs are much softer in tone and approach, and I invite you to visit her website at www.acimmusic.com where you can find out more about Resta, and order music if you like. You can even find all of the lyrics to all of the songs on all 13 albums if you are interested.
