I heard this song for the first time at the memory lane singing group I was able to take my mum to today. The group is for people with Dementia and a carer. I cried when I heard it as the lyrics got me.. its what alot of the world needs right now. Belief there is good in a world that can seem to be so dark.

I needed to hear this today. Sometimes when I'm down, I have feelings of doubt, this lifts my spirits even though I cry while listening ❤
