Below is the sweet, inspired song written by Angie Smith as she was carrying her child still, even as she was finding out her child would not live for very long, if at all, once she was born. Heartbreaking yet hope-filled story of Angie and Todd and baby Audrey Caroline follows the song below. Thank you to Todd and Angie for sharing your story.
I Will Carry You
(Audrey's Song)
Selah
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
There's a greater story
Written long before me
Because He loves you 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 my life
I will praise the One who's 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 said,
"I've shown her photographs of time beginning
Walked her through the parted sea
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
I will praise the One who's chosen me
to carry you
Testimony of
Todd and Angie Smith
I Will Carry You:
The Sacred Dance of Grief and Joy
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
~Psalm 147: 3
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
~Romans 15:13
