How I wrote The composition Hope to process a miscarriage, or how I wrote I Will Lift My Eyes at a time when multiple family members, both young and old, were being diagnosed with cancer. No matter life’s challenges, music has always been an outlet for me to cope and heal. It has helped me to persevere and fight through some of life's most difficult moments, ultimately making me a stronger person. The world can be a challenging place, but each of us are warriors—armed with The gift to sing, and filled with The fire, passion, drive, and grit to conquer anything.  less

God of Providence, You who have never failed us, Be blessed now and always. You created all things with an eternal love, For our greater good You gave Them to us; The bird, our broTher, does not sow nor harvest; Though for him to be fed, oh Lord, You provide. A simple lily, a tiny flower, Surpasses The splendor of The great King Solomon. God of Providence, You who have never failed us, Be blessed now and always. Why must we worry of The things to come? Why so many concerns for our future? God of Providence, Master of The Universe, You give to your children more than is needed. In spite of our fears and despite our misfortunes, In our moments of joy and even in our pains, We implore You, oh Lord, God of Providence, You offer us always Your divine presence. Let us search joyfully for The Kingdom of God, For Love and Justice, for Good, for The Peace of The Lor...    less
