Heather Davis lost her husband Eric a short while ago - leaving her with 6 children (four of their own and two adopted). Her faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, in balance with her honest and tearful testimony to the heartache experienced, is a challenge and a blessing.

On her blog she says she has had various songs "in her heart" this week - and one of them is the following. You can listen to it on her blog....

BRING THE RAIN - MERCY ME
I can count a million times
People asking me how I can
Praise You with all that I've gone through
The question just amazes me
Can circumstances possibly
Change who I forever am in You
Maybe since my life was changed
Long before these rainy days
It's never really ever crossed my mind
To turn my back on you, oh Lord
My only shelter from the storm
But instead I draw closer through these times

(Chorus) So I pray...Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings You glory
And I know there'll be days
When this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to praise You
Jesus, bring the rain

I am Yours regardless of
The dark clouds that may loom above
Because You are much greater than my pain
You who made a way for me
By suffering Your destiny
So tell me what's a little rain
So I pray...chorus
