Five powerfully inspirational songs in my opinion.
Five powerfully inspirational songs are:
1) Man In The Mirror sung by Michael Jackson. Written by Siedah Garrett and Glen Ballard.
2) Place In This World performed by Michael W. Smith. Words by Wayne Kirkpatrick and Amy Grant.
3) Stay The Same sung and written by Joey McIntyre.
4) You Raise Me Up – The music for “You Raise Me Up” is written by Rolf Lovland of Secret Garden and the lyrics by Brendan Graham. This incredibly uplifting song has been sung by Josh Groban and Westlife.
5) Coming Out Of The Dark – performed by Gloria Estefan. Co-written by Gloria and Jon Secada who serves as one of the background vocals.
I love how these artists and groups beautifully sing from the heart and with great passion, soul and power. The music, lyrics, voices and messages of these powerfully compelling songs are exquisitely valuable filling me with love, blessings, inspiration, warmth and joy! I appreciate and admire the treasured tributes and versions to these songs and how the individuals and groups infuse their essence and flavors into them. Each and every time I hear these memorable heartfelt songs, I experience priceless bliss and profound goose bumps in my heart and soul!
Here are the music videos and live performances in respect to each song:
