My Song in the Night — A Hymn for the Hard Moments
I recorded My Song in the Night on a day that is sacred to me — the anniversary of my son Eli’s passing, six years ago. In the hardest days before and after his death, I went to the piano over and over again. I sang Peace in Christ until I could breathe and then I sang it again at his funeral. Music wasn’t a distraction from the grief — it was the way through it. I chose to record this hymn on that day because I know what it means to need a song in the night, and I know that the Savior’s atonement and resurrection are not just beautiful doctrines. For me, in those days, they were the only light I could find.
