This song changed my life. When I was in a very dark painful place, I heard this song for the first-time and it pulled me out of that overwhelming sorrow, loss and depression. Christ truly filled me, transformed me, renewed me and healed me. Today I listen to this song and I reflect on Christs mercy and unconditional, unfailing love for me when nothing and no one could help but Him. Thank you for writing this song and sang with such depth and hunger for God. It has changed my life and will continue in doing so.🌻
