Singer Natalie Grant's Daughter Amazes Her with Worship Song After Life-Threatening Health Scare

Lorie Johnson : May 17, 2016  CBN News

"I nearly fell off my chair." -Natalie Grant, after hearing her daughter's song

[CBN News] The young daughter of Christian artist Natalie is living proof of the old saying, "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."  The 9-year-old penned a worship song whose lyrics show a level of intellectual and spiritual maturity well beyond her years.  She even managed to amaze her famous mother.  Natalie Grant said she "about fell off my chair" when her daughter first asked her to read the lyrics.

Grant's daughter Gracie called her song, "Cares."  It's about the transformation of fear to faith. 

She wrote it after a horrific health scare in February in which the youngster stopped breathing after her lung collapsed.  The medical crisis was fallout from Gracie's long-standing battle with asthma.  She was rushed to the hospital where she was placed in the Intensive Care Unit. 

Her mother said, "After her stay in the ICU, she has struggled with some fear and anxiety. She was reading a children's devotional from Pastor Rick Warren and was inspired to write her first song. Gracie has such wisdom and insight for her age. And that sweet angel voice. I swoon."

The lyrics of Gracie's song are: "I'll turn my cares into prayers. Turn my worry into trusting. When I am afraid, I will call Your Name. When I am alone, You will comfort me and heal me. When I'm feeling scared, I'll turn my cares into prayers. I am not alone. When I'm in distress, I'll come to Your throne."

Her mom shared Gracie's song on her Facebook page. "The lyrics and melody are ALL HER. Her daddy added the chords," says Grant. 
Gracie's song has received over 4,000 likes already. People are impressed by her vocabulary range. One fan says it's amazing that Gracie used the word "distressed" in her song. 

Gracie's platform continues to grow.  She and her mother are headed to Washington, DC to speak about the power of prayer, specifically, how God healed her from her traumatic hospital ordeal.  The mother-daughter team will also offer hope to other people who are suffering with asthma. 

"Gracie was asked to tell her story and advocate on behalf of the 24 million Americans living with asthma. I was thrilled at the opportunity for my 9-year-old daughter to learn the importance of taking the bad and using it for good," says Grant. "Learning how to embrace every part of our story can not only be empowering and freeing for ourselves, but life changing for someone else" as well.
