I wrote the words and melody to "The Beauty of God's Plan" while
on-tour in Paris . My co-writer was the steele guitar player (Claude Samard). He was strumming some
chords and he heard the song as a Country /Western. I told him I heard it as a Reggae
song. Upon returning to my homeland shores, I produced it as a Reggae song and put it into the hands of
Bob Marley himself. I told Bob I had written it for his wife to sing. He liked the song and I was
so thrilled. I am honored to have Rita Marley's beautiful voice singing my composition. It's like
a dream come-true!
