I absolutely love this song! It's amazing that a song can be so simple in melody and words... and yet so powerful to the listener's heart, mind, and soul. Now, I'm not talking about the hymn that so many of us sang as a child (that's a beautiful one, too) but the song that was written around 2014. It's another popular tune so easy to play. I hope you enjoy!
