Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Dear Lord (Hume Cronyn, from 'Foxfire')
You're referring to the 1987 TV movie "Foxfire" starring Jessica Tandy, Hume Cronyn, and John Denver. (There were other movies with the same title.)

Hume Cronyn and Susan Cooper wrote the play it was based on; then Susan Cooper wrote the film adaptation.

I did find some biographical information about Hume Cronyn that said he wrote the lyrics to 3 songs that appeared in that movie: DEAR LORD; SWEET TALKER; and MY FEET TOOK T'WALKING.

I was unable to find any lyric quotes, sound samples, or information about any recordings.
