Kathy Troccoli Sings!
 |
Kathy Troccoli has sung on the Tonight
Show with Jay Leno, toured with pop superstar Amy Grant and been a
guest host on VH1 . . . |
. . . but the most important thing she believes
she's ever done is write the song "A Baby's Prayer," a song about
abortion from an unborn child's point of view. Kathy says, "I received
a version of this song several years ago and prayed that God would
allow me to express the sacredness of life through the lyrics. What
better way to express it though the heart of a baby - a baby's
prayer." The song begins . . .
I can hear her talking with a friend
I think it's all about me
Oh how she can't have a baby now
My mommy doesn't see
That I feel her breath
I know her voice
Her blood it flows though my heart
God you know my greatest wish is that
We'd never get apart
Kathy's songs have been nominated for two Grammy's, but "A Baby's Prayer" won the 1998 GMA Dove Award for Inspirational Song of The Year. That's because Kathy inspires great hope for women hurting after abortion. "There have been other songs about abortion, but I wanted to emphasize God's mercy and forgiveness for those involved in the tragedy of abortion," Kathy said. Frequently, women are not able to forgive themselves after an abortion. If you are one of those women, know that God will forgive any sin for which you repent, including the sin of abortion.
Unfortunately, many women presume on God's mercy and abort their children anyway. Although God will forgive the sin of abortion, Kathy warns that remorse and heartache will inevitably follow, "Abortion always has victims. I know that from working in a crisis pregnancy center. If you have an abortion or encourage someone else to have an abortion, one day you'll regret it."
"A Baby's Prayer" had a very unique begging: "My co-writer, Scott Brasher, wrote the music when he was watching a documentary on public television about "Children of The Holocaust," Kathy said. "Just like those innocent children who were sent to death by Nazis in World War II, abortion has sent millions of innocent children to death in our time."
A single woman, Kathy has been the national spokesperson for Life Teen's programs since 1993 (Life Teen has 40,000 active members - see www.lifeteen.org). Kathy strongly advocates saving sex for marriage. And she believes that dressing modestly will help you stay pure. Dressing modestly means not wearing suggestive or revealing clothes that might tempt others to lustful thoughts. Not only are sexual thoughts impure, but they can do and lead to pre-marital sex and unplanned pregnancies which are often aborted. "Virtue and modesty are very important. They can help you prevent becoming one of the victims of the tragedy of abortion, which has touched over 20 percent of the women of America," Kathy said. "sexual absence (before marriage) is God's best way for you, regardless of your age."
