Song Let It Blow Through
Music & Words Maggie Wheeler
Composed in 2019

Lyrics
Let it blow through, let it blow through.
Open up the windows of your soul, and let it blow through.

Hard times come, and hard times go, let it blow through.
Open up the windows of your soul, and let it blow through.

Hard times come and hard times go, let it blow.
Open up the windows of your soul, and let it blow through.

Notes Let's highlight a song by next episode's guest artist Maggie Wheeler, Maggie said she wrote this on her birthday on a gray day by the beach in 2019. She told her husband and daughters to just hang on, because a song was coming through… I thought, ah, she treats her creative urges with honor. Both my cat and dog contribute to this particular recording, but although the purring and dream yips seemed really loud as I was recording, they're quite faint in the final product.... I decided to just let them blow through.
