This song is one of the prayers for transformation from the PRAYER song cycle. I was moved to tears by the horror of a 12-year old child going on a shooting rampage at his school. And all I could do in response was hold that pain and pray. Through prayer, grief can be transformed. Here, it became a song.

Special thanks to Haskel for playing guitar so beautifully.

I will feature all remixes of this song on the PRAYER playlist which will be available for streaming at the live performances, and on my (under construction and soon to be unveiled) website.

The guitar stems are available for download from Haskel’s page.

MY HEART IS HOLDING

How can the babies be so broken
How can they feel such rage
My heart is holding, praying for grace
My heart is holding

Our shattered dreams say it all
Nightmares bring transformation
Still our children bleed from their worldly wounds
Still we battle while we’re praying

My heart is holding, holding
My heart is holding

The earth trembled and she sent a wave
(We didn’t want to see what needed to be seen)
The earth trembled and she sent a wave
(We didn’t want to see, cause we thought we were safe)
The earth trembled and she sent a wave
(We didn’t want to see what needed to be seen)
The earth trembled and she sent a wave
Now is the time for awakening
Now is the time….

My heart is holding, praying for grace
My heart is holding
My heart is holding, praying for grace
My heart is holding
