This song is so special to me even though it's been 24 years ago my son was being delivered and while trying to be born he got tangled up around his umbilical cord and he didn't make it drs tried hard to revive him but just didn't happen he had down syndrome and mental retardation Dr said he would be confined to a wheelchair all his life and about a month after that my wife passed away due to infection I had given up and so upset with God for taking 2 special people in my life but then he came in my weakest point when I wanted to end my life he came back to me even though I got upset with him and I loved him so much more than I did before I know I will be with my family again one day and it will be a great reunion this song helps me so much than you Sonya you have been an inspiration to me all these years I love the Isaac's very much God bless yall
Dear Sonya...Anne here ...a sister from Scotland. my husband & I love you all & your songs really touch us. im so sorry for your loss sweetheart. We love you., & underneath and roundabout are Gods everlasting arms. Ps 121 MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL YOUR BEAUTIFUL FAMILY. xxx
Oh, the tears... Thank you for this beautiful song of hope! God gave us 19 months with our granddaughter when the doctors said she'd not live a day. So many little miracles as we prayed for the big one. It did not happen as we had thought. Death finally stole her away, ...but Jesus stole her away from death. She and Ay Va are fully alive in the Father's arms, and we look forward to Resurrection / Reunion Day!
Th first time I heard this story, it took my breath away. I know EXACTLY how Sonja feels. I’ve lost 2 baby girls, and then we lost our 2 older Sons. One to an accidental shooting, then our middle son to an illness. When all you want is to be a Mama, it is just almost beyond comprehension to think you’ll survive another hour. If not for the Grace of GOD I know we’d never have made it. We (my beautiful husband and I) still grieve our children, and wonder how so many can be born…and yet unwanted, and here we are just yearning to have a family together. One day….it will all make sense. So for you that are unsure of what to do….As Sonja wrote….Just keep breathing, one step at a time. We’ll meet again in GODs Kingdom one day. There is HOPE.
Lost my gran daughter at 3 days old. It was heartbreaking but a whole lot of love & communication got us through it. God is the healer of hearts & the hope of the the fallen. Knowing we will see her some day is so comforting. I just can't imagine not KNOWING THAT.... PTL. PTL. PTL!
@@ohwhatelse A PRAYER FOR VISITORS TO THIS FORUM. On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE. YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors. 🥰 YOU SAW them as a sinner because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow. If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰 They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh. They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seeks to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take. Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movie, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES. LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain. LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned inorder for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌 LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰 LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌 If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee. Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again, I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh. O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
That is truly avery beautiful and loving song that you are singing . It hit home to me too. But sometime we can turn away God when things like that happen. We get so angrey we don't realy care what happens to our live. I do unterstand that. What I went through and found Jesus doesn't let his lost sheep stay lost very long. You also find out if you realy in your heart asked Jesus in your life. When you really read and. see the signs from God how he realy love you then you know for sure why Jesus went through all of the pain and suffering and shading his blood for you so you can have eternal life. When you really know this you will come back a for sure ask him into your life. Jesus is the most priceless treasure we could ever find in our lives. He is all we need and that is why it is a honer for me to serve him so he can get the honer and glory that he deserves. God bless you and your families.
Thank you for sharing your story. The song too is very good. I’m sorry for your loss, truly I am. This doesn’t happen often but I had tears in my eyes and frogs in my throat while I listened to your story and song. Well done Isaacs and God Bless You.
Lost my gran daughter at just 3 days old. It was heartbreaking but a whole lot of love & communication got us through it. God is the healer of hearts & the hope of the the fallen. Knowing we will see her some day is so comforting. I just can't imagine not KNOWING THAT.... PTL. PTL. PTL!
Hi oh whatelse I’m sorry for your loss but I am understanding your loss I went through this with one of my Sisters I know that she is Heaven with Jesus Christ our Savior and I am Praising our Savior Jesus Christ for Loving Us all
I know that pain. It’s awful & you think nothing is ever going to be good again, but God makes it ok. He knows what pain you’re going through, losing a child. He was there too.
Sonya and Jimmy your heart's were broken but your faith keeps you strong. I love your family and your music, this is your best album ever. God bless you all.
Only God can handle the pain. There is little any one can say that can change how it feels to lose a child. I know, one day, we will be together again, and that is kind of what drives me on. And this is heart wrenching to watch and hear that beautiful song. Life is so very short even if you live to be 100. Eternal life through Jesus, Messiah, is forever. He will, one day soon, wipe away all tears.
Thankyou for your awesome testimony. My daughter Ashley was 27 when she was in a horrible situation when she was murdered. I got angry said why God. God wrapped his arms around me. I have a dipper walk with God.
Thank you ! The words Keep Breathing came to memory as I sadly miscarried my dear baby last Sat. It helps to know others have survived loss and learned to live again. So thankful for your touching song .Heather R
Sonya sad to hear about it God Bless you Love you and hope one day God will give you the answers I lost a lot of my family members but God can take better care of them than we can. So Sorry
I feel like this song was made for me . Everyday I get up is a struggle . Thank you so much for this song and the testimony with it Sonya! God bless you and your family
first words I said to the hospice nurse when my Timmy left me and went to be with God from his battle with cancer. How do I get up the next day and breathe. Thank you for your song.
Im so sorry you will see again in heaven this song is incredible i know your son is up there smiling up there at you. God bless you i know this is hard for you but god has a plan for all of us ✝❤
Hello Lisa R I don’t know what you are going through this long but I’m telling you that we need to keep up lifting the Name of Jesus Christ our Savior and he will get us through our trials and problems that we have to go through Always Remember our Heavenly Father told us that he will not put us through the things that we are going through but he will be there for us all the time
Sometimes we love our beautiful heavenly kids so dearly but God love them more and look after them properly and put them in a place where no trouble, no depression, no stress, no struggle if we have eyes to see where she is now may be she want you to be with her in the amazing place the Kingdom of God. God bless you and your family. Love from your Christian friend from Tonga and New Zealand.
Amen Gods does know how to take better care of our kids than we do. He is a very loving father and he knows what best for them. I have found how special and loving he is to kids that are handycap. I had people that would send me pitchers of them from other countries. There post would tell me that they were having their birthday but family. told them that they was too ugly that people wouldn't wish them happy birthday. Then God gave me a message to give back to them things changed. When you tell them that Jesus love them and that you don't just look at the outside of a person you look at the inner person who God show you how beautiful they are. Some have show me they were missing parts on their body. I told them if they would ask Jesus in their life that God would show them that he love them and do amazing things with their life. It was such amazing thing that people sent their love and told them have a happy birthday. It just warm your heart when God step in.
Have known y'all for a very long time grew up across the mountain from Harrogate and Lafollette Tennessee in a small town called Harlan Ky. Saw y'all perform at LMU on numerous occasions have ALWAYS enjoyed your music and songs they have touched and blessed many.

No words! May the God of all comfort be with you. So love your music and awesome voice. The Lord has blessed my heart through your music ministry. I play the harmonica myself (not ad good as buddy greene though)

Hello Madison Turner I’m praying that God’s helping you get through this and I know that it’s going to be Okay because God knows what we need and what you are going through Please! Keep your Faith in God and you will make it Okay Blessing and Prayers for you always
Blessings of comfort to you & your beautiful family. When I hear this song you sing with passion, I wonder how anyone could deny life within them growing & developing by the Miracle of our LOVING GOD, how could people abort their babies? Love & Peace to you.
His thoughts are higher than our thoughts. Lots of my family and friends have died I never questioned why, through seeing them suffer then die I had lots of thoughts of suicide that I repented of to murmmering and complaining and my own health hurts I know, Jesus is Lord and on the other side he is the prize and I'll know all things, so wanting to be with Him is my hope but I'll have to stay here till He says come on home. The raising I had was rough and repented of a lot of bad praying of why didn't you take me when I was young I wouldn't have had to live through all of that, and He saved my Mom and my life lots of times, then my soul At 18. Now I know why scripture says mourn over a birth cause if they get to live down here, toil and trouble till death, some good only to know what the bad is. Then rejoice over a death, if the person is born again, no more sin, and pain healed forever Glory. God gave and took them both; Now I'm trying to compel and warn the lost through Gods love and the Holy Spirits guidance till He's says you graduated.Lots of people say your so happy and I'll be in a lot of pain or really angry but that's the Holy Spirit, He replaces my bad with His love that's Jesus cause I don't even want to do anything and I'm the happiest I've ever been, knowing it's getting closer to seeing Jesus, because if there's nobody or hundreds around you when you die it's still between you and Jesus on the other side. He is in control.
I just want you guys to know what an inspiration y'all are to Christian people keep on breathing By the way I'm especially excited about your choice in your new manager. He's an ole family friend from Arkansas. Ask him about a song he wrote about a congregation of twelve. I love y'all God bless
I'm so sorry for your loss of sweet little Ayva. I love her name. I have been looking for you guys. Several years ago I had lost my baby boy, Peter, to umbilical cord prolapse. He was full term. 41 weeks, 2 days. It was completely unexpected. I cried so much during that first year. It was a real struggle to get out of bed but my family needed me so I did it for them. I was barely functioning though. Somehow I discovered your music and the sometimes mournful sound of your voices helped me when I needed to cry. I would listen to your music over and over again. To the point where my preteen would constantly complain. So I stopped. I put the CD away and after several moves I have no idea what happened to it. Over the last year or so I wanted to hear it again but I'm sorry, I didn't know who you guys were and I couldn't remember your names. Last night I started searching, rephrasing the queries over and over again until I found an article about you. I was so happy to find you again. And now we have something in common: birthdays at the cemetery, siblings born before and after visiting our Glory babies there. Thank you for sharing your pain. It will help someone. It's helped me. My son's 14th birthday is coming up this month and now we have to travel to get to his grave side. It sure does make you long for heaven even more.
Sonya and Jimmy, I met you at Restoration Church in Auburn , AL. You have my utmost sympathies and I am bawling as I type this. I'll definitely keep you in my prayers.
My wife, while married to her first husband, lost her third baby, a girl, three hours before delivery... That was 36 years ago, and each year when her daughter’s birthday arrives, she can hardly function... Some griefs never completely heal...
Tomorrow is the anniversary of my baby girl Amy death she died of crib death she was three months old even though it's been 46 years I relive it every single year I'm so grateful that God Watches Over Me
Thank you! I remember the performance where Sonya was wearing the gold and black and I go back and watch over and over. The thoughts that hit me are her broken heart and did I just see her sneak a peak at Joey Feek? Knowing that Joey was fighting cancer and of course, at that time, no one knew the outcome that she would face? It makes this life seem like such a double edged sword; we have the mountaintops, but how can you appreciate them knowing a valley is certainly coming ahead? I just know I haven't got it figured out and I often wonder if there ever is a time we can just relax and know that this roller coaster ride ends.
I was touched by your testimony written here a year ago. What I am finding on this “roller coaster” ride (I’ve never enjoyed roller coasters!) and knowing the roller coaster ride with Jesus is probably going to get even bumpier, is that the God of the mountains (and mountain-tops) is also the God of the valleys, and that we can develop a strong awareness of His presence as we rest in Him (Matthew 11:28-30) and learn from Him and be yoked to Him. There is peace in the valley; He is the lily of the valley. We can learn to love the lessons learned in the valleys with Him. “Stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blessed, finding as He promised perfect peace and rest.” The Word of God becomes more and more a comfort and hope and light because He speaks to us, and comforts us, and reveals more of Himself through those words of spirit and life as well as through the encouragements He sends us. And as we acknowledge Him in all our ways, we can be assured that He directs our path-which grows brighter and brighter as we walk in His light (even if all around grows darker and darker)-until that Day when we see Him face to face. What a Day that will be!
I love this song because it gives life sustaining hope. I minister to so many who are hurting and hope for them is so hard to find, it is a blessing to be able to share this ballad of the power God's love with the hurting. I want to thank Sonya and all the Isaac family for sharing this very personal and intimate experience with us your fans. We are praying for you all and asking God to bring you to and keep you in the center of his will. Rev Johnny Newell
I’m sure Agreeing with you Johnny Newell I Believe we Need to Keep our lives together and Keep Serving our Heavenly Father for all he has done and what he has planned for us
Lyrics Verse 1 Might as well just stay in bed Cause it feels like there's nothing left to get up for The curtain's closed, the fan is still Pillow's soaked, can't find the will anymore But that stubborn sun just won't take no Keeps slipping in a little ray of hope Won't let me let go Chorus Keep feeling Keep trying Keep praying Keep rising When you can't stand the pain inside and all you wanna do is die You barely feel your broken heart beating, Keep breathing Verse 2 Sometimes life just don't play fair, Makes no sense we've all been there, drank the bitter cup But the earth keep's spinning on Step by step you move along, no you don't give up Eventually the clouds do part, and waking up get's less hard Chorus Bridge Just take one breath, then take one step, And then take two, and pretty soon, You'll be runnin, runnin, So keep breathing Last Chorus Keep feeling Keep trying Keep praying Keep rising When you cant count the tears you've cried And you don't even feel alive Just listen to your heart cause it's still beating, and Keep breathing
I also forgot to mention that this was the second baby girl that I lost a year before that on June 16th I lost a mandolin she no longer had a heartbeat either they had to induce labor they had to tie my tubes after a me because they didn't know that I had bad kidneys God gets you through a lot of things I don't understand but I know it's his will love my baby girls are with him right now
my son Parker Tate was born at 26 weeks and 2 days on March 29, 2019, he weighed 15.9 oz. and was 8 1/2 inches long, he spent six days in NICU but unfortunately on April 3, 2019 the doctor told us they have done everything they could, Parker had a massive stroke, his kidneys and liver were failing, he had hydrops so his heart was going to fail, and his lungs weren't developed so he needed a ventilator to help him breathe, On April 4, 2019 my little Parker passed away, he was all I have ever wanted in life and was my first child, I just want to know "why", and anyone who has gone through this how did make it through
Hello Karly Ellison , I’m sorry for your loss but I know that you are going through a lot of things just Remember God will get us through our lives and he will never stop Loveing us through our Trails
I’m sorry for your loss but I have been through this too; And I know you are hurting but I’m sure glad that you have your heart and soul with God because I’m sure that he is taking care of your Baby and They are waiting on you all.
i could not imagine the unborn baby is already dead in the womb and i could not imagine how hard that would be for a mother... sometimes, it is very hard to understand what is going on with our lives... but we should keep faith in God....

Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌 If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee. Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again, I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh. O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms @ KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
