Cry Out!

A few weeks ago, I removed my Christmas PlayList and decided to add a couple of songs to my existing Blog PlayList. I came across a song titled, "Cry Out to Jesus" performed by the group Third Day. The words touched my heart so deeply, I knew immediately this song had to be added to my group of favorite songs.

There is hope for the helpless
Rest for the weary
Love for the broken heart
There is grace and forgiveness
Mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus, Cry out to Jesus


An amazing, young woman by the name of Lizzie Palmer, created a YouTube Video titled,RememberMe. Last summer this awesome tribute to our troops, marked a huge milestone of 25 million views! Believe it or not, this young lady is only 17 years old!

Lizzie Palmer has once again created an amazing gift for our troops, featuring the song, "Cry Out". Please pause my PlayList on the right sidebar and enjoy this touching video. Keep in mind, a young woman with an especially sweet spirit put together this tribute for men and women she has never met...but obviously Lizzie holds tremendous love and respect for each and every Airman, Soldier, Sailor and Marine!

Hi - Thanks for sharing this Video, it was awesome and beautiful. I have one of those flags presented at the funeral of my son. I was thinking about the soldiers as they folded the flag and their hands were shaking so. Brian's flag is in the original container as the soldiers folded it - I don't want to disturb the folds they so lovingly created.

I treasure your blog so much - you bring me so much information and warm contact with our military. Thanks so much.
