Written during the height of the pandemic, this song of spiritual and physical wellness speaks to many moments of need. Opening with the first few chords of "O God, Our Help in Ages Past", the anthem is framed as a petition for God's healing mercy. The fragile melody gently rises and falls, breathing with the sincerity of the lyrics. "In the silence help us hear words of hope and promise clear. Teach us not to live in fear. Lord of all, we pray to You." A true anthem of hope!
