Devotion

"When you fall down I'll carry you bound by love and devotion.
I won't let you drown I'll rescue you from the depths of the ocean.
And when you find that you have gone astray
I'll bring you back and help you on your way.
And if you think you can't make it through the day
Just look for me and I'll be there for you.
Nothing else that I could ever do but
Share my heart my soul my everything with you."
I don't have the right voice for this song, or those would be the lyrics.
A random note sequence I dug out of my Keystep, transferred to a Circuit Tracks. As I tended to my spouse through a difficult surgical recovery, the poem began to sprout from the cracks and in my mind they gradually grew together into a song. A song which has been trapped in my head, waiting for me to finish writing it, for a long time.
The Circuit Tracks is made for techno and house music, not handbell music. Also the delay gets very glitchy when you adjust the tempo live, so I used the M8's delay.
