Mother's Day

I sang this song for the offertory at Church on Mother's day. This was I think about a week after the second miscarriage. We decided to sing it because it was mothers day and we were recognizing God's sovereign plan in our lives even though it does not make sense from our perspective. We also wanted it to be on Mother's day because we consider ourselves parents already with 2 children that God is caring for as we speak. Looking back it is amazing to see how God has worked and we will never forget what we went through. If you get a chance, go listen to the song. It came on the radio just when we needed it most. It is crazy how God can orchestrate circumstances to fit his plan.


"Promise Of A Lifetime"


I have fallen to my knees
As I sing a lullaby of pain
I'm feeling broken in my melody
As I sing to help the tears go away

Then I remember the pledge you made to me

[CHORUS:]
I know you're always there
To hear my every prayer inside
I'm clinging to the promise of a lifetime
I hear the words you say
To never walk away from me and leave behind
The promise of a lifetime

Will you help me fall apart
Pick me up, take me in your arms
Find my way back from the storm
And you show me how to grow
Through the change

I still remember the pledge you made to me

[BRIDGE:]
I am holding on to the hope I have inside
With you I will stay through every day
Putting my understanding aside

And I am comforted
