The story behind the song ...



Two mother's hearts,
originally brought together by a minature horse named,
" Michael's Noelle "

Late 2009, while visiting the " Brave Little Prancer's "
minature horse website online,
I read about this family's son, Michael Garrison, 18.
In June 2006, just 3 weeks after Graduation,
Michael was killed by a drugged & drunken driver.

After reading about Michael's life,
and, the tragic loss of this family's son,
which has pierced his mother's soul and changed their family, forever...
I was, myself ... in tears for days, I was SO moved.

Holidays are especially difficult after the loss of loved ones,
After Thanksgiving, heartbroken for this mother & her family,
from the depths of my heart & soul,
with the approach of the 2009 Christmas Season,
a new song was born, a new Noel, from Heaven above,
" Michael's Noelle "


Dedicated to Marty Garrison & Family
In Loving Memory of their son,


Michael Joseph Garrison
9/1/87 - 6/10/06
Killed by a drugged & drunk driver

" Michael's Noelle "


A gentle snow ... is falling
Like tears from Heaven ... upon your tree.
There's a quiet hush ... on the mountaintop
The horses run ... in silent ... fields.
(Trumpet in distance ... Noel, Noel )

There's a breath of Heaven ... on earth tonight
(Trumpet in distance ... Oh, Holy night)

As the Lord & Michael ... draw near to us.

Like a gentle warmth ... from a flickering fire
As we gather another Christmas ... without you here.
Michael, the lights are up ... there are gifts & a tree
And, son, I know ... you're watching over me ... "My Archangel"

* * * *

Michael, run ... to the Son
To the arms ... of the One
Who died, for me ... Who set men free
Michael, run ... like the wind, LIVE ... again!

( Trumpet - "Noel" - INSTRUMENTAL Interlude )

Michael, run ... I set you free
To the "Fields of Forever" watch ... ( Michael run ) over me
Michael, run ... like the wind
Until I see you ... again ... my son ( Michael run )

( Spoken )

Michael, your gift ... was Love
Your joy ... created Peace
You were taken from us ... too soon.



Now, "My Archangel" ... lives on ... In the arms of God's son
In the "Fields of Forever" ... ( Michael run )
Our Michael runs ... "Brave, Strong, Free & Forever Young."


( Piano INSTRUMENTAL - Interlude )

Michael, run ... to the Son
To the arms ... of the One
Who died,( Michael run ) for me ... Who sets men free
Michael, run ... like the wind, ( Michael run ) LIVE ... again!


Michael, run ... I set you free
To the "Fields of Forever," watch ( Michael run ) ... over me
Michael, run ... like the wind
Until I see you ... again, my son, Michael

Michael, run ... like the wind, ( To the arms of God's son )
Go my son ...


LIVE, LIVE ... again!
