Strange request... "He's so real to me!"

My daughter has heard a song and all she remembers is that the end of it goes, "... to some I know Jesus might not be, but He's so real to me."

I recognized it as an old song: Can't remember who but I wonder if it's the Pierces. Not sure at all.

My daughter is an incredible singer and fell in love with a song... that I already forgot! That's another reason I have to feel old.

Ain't it amazing that a new generation of young folks are hearing songs we sang in years gone by and think they are new!

Yes.... this song was written and sung by the Jim and Becky Pearce back in the 80's. I have sung it often and have the words if she wants them. I still listen to that album. Beautiful song!

She's wanting the words to sing in Church; I just can't remember them!

Would LOVE to have them for her.

Thanks!

TB and I have sung that song many many times since the first time we heard it back in the 70s. We were the first ones to ever sing it in our District.

Here are the words.......


He's So Real To Me

There are those who say Jesus never lived
And that heaven is somebody's dream
But I just called out His name on my knees
And I heard Someone answer my pleas.

We've crossed too many mountains together
And walked through the of valleys of life
To some I know Jesus might not be
But He's so real to me!

Many times when I'm burdened
He's a Friend so dear
When I'm lonely He's always near
I can't deny Him for I love Him you see
For Jesus is so real to me!

Pearce.

It is and I guess it kind of dates us a bit. It's hard to believe we learned that song 30 years ago almost. And been singing it that long. Woah!

Wow!! Haven't heard or thought of that in ages. They came here when Bishop Wilson was pastor...they were just so young and starting out.

I always loved It's My Desire by Jim and Becky...still a great song.

Sis Barb,

It's my desire is the most requested song I sing... I love to play it on my sax more than I love singing it. I think the reason it moves me so is that it is my testimony... If you could see where Jesus brought me from... Jesus!
