This new but brief season focuses on songwriting at Christmas time.

The featured song in this episode is: Help Yourself to My Life and is an exercise on how to tell the Christmas story in a fresh way.

Lyrics posts of this song are available on http://www.instagram.com/cindypalin/, as well as http://www.facebook.com/CindyPalinWriter

Scripture passages discussed are Luke 2, and Matthew 17:20.

Three stanzas are compared. Rhyme, syllables, melody writing, intervals, vowels, shaping, score, lyricist, composer, and bridge elements are discussed.

Cindy suggests you have the lyrics open during the discussion to have a visual understanding as well, but not if you're driving:)
