The Survivor, written by Phil Keaggy - from "True Believer" 1995
Inspired by the story of Gianna Jessen who survived a saline abortion in 1977.
Her story can be found in a number of places on the net,
one is http://www.abortionfacts.com/survivors/giannajessen.asp
Also refer to Psalms 31, vv 13-15
A powerful song even when played with just a single guitar and voice
(although guitar chorus +/- echo helps to get the right effect).
Verse:
[Bm] [G]
[A] [Bm]
[G] [F#m]
[G] [A] [Bm]
At the end each verse: Em - F#m - Bm
Refrain:
[A] [E]
[B] [F#]
[A] [E]
[Em] [F#m] [Bm]
This was transcribed for me by my son, Matthew.
