HELP me find this song!! 2000-2007 Terry Wogan R2

[Elodie2019]

This is not going to be easy! I'm showing my age and will probably come across as a bit weird but here goes....

I used to listen to Terry Wogan on R2 on my way to work and he played this song almost every day for quite a while... Could have been any time 2000-2007 I've not heard it since but I loved it!

I have NO idea who sang it ... I don't know what it's called and I don't know any lines...

I'm not religious at all but It's got a 'Christian' message .all about God loving us etc. and how wonderful life is..it was quite repetitive at times.

It was by someone well known and I remember thinking at the time that the person had been part of a group at one point. Even as far back as the '70s
They had other songs with a religious message too but not all of them did...

I thought it was Van Morrison, Aaron Neville, James Taylor but I don't know...

That's all I've got!

I don't stand a chance finding it do I?!

Little Drummer Boy?

[Elodie2019]

No! I think it was a single around 200-2007.... I remember thinking at the time that this person hadn't been on the radio for years...

[Herocomplex]

Is it ‘I don’t know much’ by Aaron Neville and Linda Ronstadt?

[Elderflower14]

Wasn't That'll Do by Peter Gabriel was it?

[Elodie2019]

It's that kind of song!
I was sure it was Aaron Neville or Van M as they have done a few 'christian' songs but if it is them I can't find the song!!

[Elodie2019]

Elderflower It wasn't as slow or gentle as the Peter G song!
It was quite upbeat!

[Elodie2019]

I wish I knew more!

[ApplePenPineapplePen]

Lighthouse family?

[Elodie2019]

No but listening to 'lifted' now!

[Drinkciderfromalemon]

Menopause eats brain.... maybe the song that says "how wonderful life is, now you're in the world.."?

[AtrociousCircumstance]

‘My sweet lord’ George Harrison?

[MadeForThis]

What if God was one of us?

[Elodie2019]

Drink I think that's 'Your song' Elton J.
Everlasting Peri- Menopause has destroyed my brain! I said in my OP that I probably sound a bit weird.!!

[Elodie2019]

Not George Harrison! (love him)

[Elodie2019]

Not 'What if God was one of us' but I really love that one too! Not heard it for years!

[WiseUpJanetWeiss]

Shine Silently by Nils Lofgren?

[WhatchaMaCalllit]

"From A Distance"?

[Swisskit]

Maybe you could email Radio 2, see if they have any ideas?

[Elodie2019]

Not NilsL!

[StuntBottom]

River of Dreams by Billy Joel?

[Horehound]

Tender by Blur?

[Doilooklikeatourist]

Sailing to Philadelphia ( Mason Dixon line ) by Mark Knopfler and James Taylor ?

[Elodie2019]

You know I used to HATE 'From a distance' when I was younger... I now blunt like a little baby when I hear it!

The song I'm thinking has a similar kind of message...

Type in radio2 terry wogan playlist

[afternoonspray]

Whenever God shines his light? Van Morrison. That's a brilliant song with the chorus: put your feet back on higher ground.
