Carry You

Hopefully they don't mind me posting this... but Angie Smith just put this up on her blog so others can access it from YouTube. This is a song written by her, along with her husband and another friend, that will be coming out on Selah's next album. It was set to a slideshow in honor of Baby Audrey. I know some of you have been through similar situations, and many others have been following their story. Just think of how many people this song will reach... many who need it now... many who will need it someday to come.
If it plays choppy, give it some time to buffer and then try again.



I Will Carry You

There were photographs I wanted to take
Things I wanted to show you
Sing sweet lullabies, wipe your teary eyes
Who could love you like this?

People say that I am brave but I'm not
Truth is I'm barely hanging on
But there's a greater story
Written long before me
Because He loves you like this

So I will carry you
While your heart beats here
Long beyond the empty cradle
Through the coming years
I will carry you
All my life
And I will praise the One whose chosen me
To carry you

Such a short time
Such a long road
All this madness
But I know
That the silence
Has brought me to His voice
And He says...

I've shown her photographs of time beginning
Walked her through the parted seas
Angel lullabies, no more teary eyes
Who could love her like this?

I will carry you
While your heart beats here
Long beyond the empty cradle
Through the coming years
I will carry you
All your life
And I will praise the One whose chosen Me
To carry you
