about

I think this was the second song I every wrote. For a friend who was having relationship issues.

lyrics

Martha, my Martha, open your eyes,
And look through your tears at the blue of the skies --
The investment of love that you've made.

Martha, my Martha, let Jesus take
All of your sorrow, all of your ache.
You take ahold of my smile.

Martha, my Martha, the plans that you've made
May not be forever, and if not they'll fade
As you will if you won't let go.

Martha, God's Martha, though you may not see,
Our Beloved watches us, loves us and He
Won't let tears be always.

about

Megan Sue Hicks Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

In my teens and twenties I wanted to be a rich and famous singer-songwriter. In my 30s I wanted to be a rich and famous bestselling novelist. In my late 30's I discovered that what I really am is a storyteller, and that's how I've been making my way in the world for the past many years.
