Song 1: Magnificent-U2

I was born, I was born
To be with you in this space and time
After that and ever after
I haven't had a clue only to break rhyme
This foolishness can leave a heart black and blue, oh, oh

Only love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can heal such a scar

I was born, I was born to sing for you
I didn't have a choice but to lift you up
And sing whatever song you wanted me to
I give you back my voice from the womb
My first cry, it was a joyful noise, oh, oh

Only love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can heal such a scar
Justified, till we die you and I will magnify, oh, oh
Magnificent, magnificent, oh, oh

Ian could join full voice with Bono in this song and groove with the Edge's classic riff and the great bass line laid down by Adam. Of course tunefulness was not Ian's gift, but heart was. He was born to sing and worship Jesus with all his being - in this space and time and ever after. We imagine the music Ian must be composing now in heaven and the songs God has given him to sing. I can't wait to hear them!! Only love hurts this much when we are separated. Only God's love and eternal promises can heal the scars left behind. God you are magnificent. Enjoy the praise offered by Ian, offered by his friends and family even in the midst of tears.
