What one song got you through the hardest season?
When I was pregnant with my daughter. The pap showed abnormal cells. The doc was almost certain it was cervical cancer. Due to risk of bleeding, they couldn’t do a biopsy, so I needed to give birth first. This song by Alvin Slaughter was def instrumental in healing and surrender during this season.
Your eye is on the sparrow
And Your hand, it comforts me
From the ends of the earth
To the depths of my heart
Let Your mercy and strength be seen
You call me to Your purpose
As angels understand
For Your glory may you draw all men
As Your love and grace demands
And I will run to You
To Your words of truth
Not by might, not by power
But by the Spirit of God
Yes, I will run the race
Till I see Your face
Oh, let me live in the glory of Your grace
