    Maybe this is for someone here today

    I am sitting here today and all of a sudden out of nowhere a song hits me. The song is Michael Jackson, I'll be there. So I went and looked up the lyrics. And when I read them, I can picture Jesus and a disciple singing this as a duet to each other. The last verse needs to be scrapped in this context, but maybe this is for one of y'all today. It sure blessed me.
    This could just be the musings of weird me who loves music, but I feel like it is supposed to be for someone here.

    JESUS: You and I must make a pact
    We must bring salvation back
    Where there is love I'll be there

    JESUS:
    I'll reach out my hand to you
    YOU: I'll have faith in all you do
    JESUS: Just call my name and I'll be there

    JESUS: I'll be there to comfort you
    YOU: Fill my world with dreams around you
    I'm so glad that I found you

    JESUS: I'll be there with love that strong
    I'll be your strength
    YOU: I'll keep holding on (yes I will)

    JESUS: Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
    Togetherness, well is all I'm after
    Whenever you need me, I'll be there (I'll be there)

    JESUS: I'll be there to protect you (yeah baby)
    YOU: With an unselfish love I'll respect you
    JESUS: Just call my name and I'll be there

    JESUS: I'll be there to comfort you
    YOU: Fill my world with dreams around you
    I'm so glad that I found you

    JESUS: I'll be there with love that strong
    I'll be your strength
    YOU: I'll keep holding on (yes I will)

    I'm a believer that there some secular songs that were meant to be for the edification of God's people and glorify God. I'm told that a song by Gladys Knight (You're the Best Thing: That ever Happened to Me), was her dedication to God (pre Mormon days). The words certainly seem to say so.

    Yes, she converted years ago. Here's an article about her conversion from 2016.
