Backstory:

Dan Robinson sent me a few lyrics and this title jumped off the page and grabbed me. I got to work on the melody and between us we trimmed the lyric down to this. The songu evaluator put the song up for "best of Songu" and I hadn't even asked about it.
Dan has some really fresh new ideas for his lyrics and some exiting new rhymes. Also he's real easy to work with.
The demo is by Galen Breen at the Gator Hole. Dave Brooks is the vocalist.

I’LL TELL GOD YOU SAID HI’   © DAN ROBINSON-JOHN WESLEY COUTTS 2006
 
V.1.
I WAS BORED AT A WORK CONVENTION
TILL THE SPEAKER CAUGHT MY ATTENTION
WITH WHAT HE DID IN HIS SPARE TIME 
VISITING SICK CHILDREN 
WITH TERMINAL CONDITIONS 
I DECIDED TO GIVE IT A TRY
MET THIS GREAT KID, AND FORMED A BOND INSTANTLY
Y’KNOW KIDS SAY THE DARNDEST THINGS
AND THIS ONE REALLY GOT TO ME………. HE SAID
 
CHORUS
I'LL TELL GOD YOU SAID HI
AND THOUGH YOU SAID YOU DON’T PRAY MUCH
YOU'RE REALLY A GOOD GUY
HE’LL UNDERSTAND WHY YOU BEEN OUT OF TOUCH
IF YOU’VE BEEN MEANING TO WRITE
WANT TO BELIEVE WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT
HE CAN MAKE EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT
I'LL TELL GOD YOU SAID HI
 
V.2.
HE SPOKE OF DYING
ANGEL WINGS, AND FLYING
SAID HE’D BE LIVING IN THE SKY
I DIDN’T KNOW WHAT TO SAY
I’D KINDA LOST MY WAY
AND HADN’T TALKED TO GOD IN A WHILE 
HE SMILED AND SAID THAT’S OKAY HE CAN SEE
YOU HAD OTHER STUFF TO DO
BUT NOW YOU’RE SPENDING TIME WITH ME… AND
 
CHORUS
 
BRIDGE
THEN ONE MORNING THEY SAID 
HE WOULDN’T MAKE IT THROUGH THE DAY 
IN HIS ROOM I CRIED AND SOFTLY TOUCHED HIS HEAD
HIS HANDS PRESSED TOGETHER 
IN HIS FINAL PRAYER
HELD A NOTE THAT READ
 
CHORUS AND TAG

EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT
I’LL TELL GOD YOU SAID HI
