I'm Still Yours

Music can pretty much speak louder than any other avenue, in my personal opinion. Last year, through the struggles of learning to live with Gabriella's heart condition and the struggles we were preparing for... Miley Cyrus, The Climb was my song. It spoke, no... screamed at me. It was everything I needed to hear and defined Gabriella's climb.

I have a song that is now my #1 most coveted Christian song ever sang by my most favorite Christian band, and feels like is the anthem to our lives since Gabriella's stroke. The words are rediculously profound to us. If you washed away my vanity, If you took away my words... To the God who gives and takes away.... When my life is not what I expected.... Will my broken heart still sing? Seriously. How much harder can those words hit?

Please take 3 minutes to listen to this song and spend some time with God while you do it.




I'm Still Yours
by Kutless

If You washed away my vanity
If You took away my words
If all my world was swept away
Would You be enough for me?
Would my beating heart still sing?

If I lost it all
Would my hands stay lifted
To the God who gives and takes away

If You take it all
This life You've given
Still my heart will sing to You

When my life is not what I expected
The plans I made have failed
When there's nothing left to steal me away
Will You be enough for me?
Will my broken heart still sing?

If I lost it all
Would my hands stay lifted
To the God who gives
And takes away

If You take it all
This life You've given
Still my heart
Will sing to You

Even if You take it all away
You’ll never let me go
Take it all away
But I still know

That I'm Yours
I'm still Yours

Oh, I'm Yours
I'm still Yours
I'm still Yours

I am crying. (again) I agree with the commenter above - it IS like they wrote it for Gabriella. Maybe you could drop them a note letting them know what this song means to your family. I bet it would bless them mightily.
