Capture Your Grief: Day 9. Music

Capture Your Grief: Day 9. Music
He Said by Group 1 Crew

If you have never heard this song I strongly recommend you stop and listen to it.  I mean really listen to the words.  When we started the treatment process, on my very first trip to the RE's office to meet DeWayne this song was on.  I turned it up and really felt this song was one I needed to hear and really listen to.  After that visit every single time I went to the RE's office for any appointment I played this song.  I played it on the way to retrieval, I played it on the way to transfer.  Every ultrasound appointment, nurses appointment, I played this song on my way in. The day we found out Jackson had CDH I listened to this song.  On the day my water broke, I did not play it (in a little bit of pain!), but I sang it over and over in my head.  I listened to it often in the hospital that week.  This song is God's promise to me.  It is His promise that He will never give me more than I can take, He may let me bend, but He will never let me break, and most of all He will never let me go! 

This song has been my rock for the past year and I know without a doubt that as many times as Jackson heard this song play and heard his mother try and sing, horribly granted, along with it that he knows every word to this song! This song will forever remind me of our journey this past year.  

There are several more songs that helped me get through this past year and hopefully one day soon I will post them as well. 

Here are the lyrics:
"He Said"
(feat. Chris August)
So your life feels like it don't make sense
And you think to yourself, "I'm a good person"
So why do these things keep happening?
Why you gotta deal with them?

You may be knocked down now
But don't forget what He said, He said:

"I won't give you more, more than you can take
And I might let you bend, but I won't let you break
And No-o-o-o-o, I'll never ever let you go-o-o-o-o"
Don't you forget what He said

Who you are ain't what you're going through
So don't let it get the best of you
'Cause God knows everything you need,
So you ain't gotta worry

You may be knocked down now
But just believe what He said, He said:

"I won't give you more, more than you can take
And I might let you bend, but I won't let you break
And No-o-o-o-o, I'll never ever let you go-o-o-o-o"
Don't you forget what He said

Don't fear when you go through the fire
Hang on when it's down to the wire
Stand tall and remember what He said:

"I won't give you more, more than you can take
And I might let you bend, but I won't let you break..."

"I won't give you more, more than you can take
And I might let you bend, but I won't let you break
And No-o-o-o-o, I'll never ever let you go-o-o-o-o"
Don't you forget what He said
Don't you forget what He said
Don't you forget what He said (I want give you more)
I want give you more
What He said
