"Paul shared the song with me a few months after my husband Chad died," says Schieber.  "It became a very sweet part of my healing process.  I didn't dream that I would have the opportunity to record it this year.  I pray it will comfort those who have lost loved ones and are facing the holidays alone."

Last October, Sarah's husband, Chad, collapsed and died while they were both running in the Chicago marathon. A police officer in Midland, Michigan, Chad was only 35 and left behind Sarah with their three children.  Sarah, who had just released an independent CD at the time of Chad's death, has been sharing her story of grief, heartache and hope with people across the country.  She recently performed and spoke at a regional Mary Kay event and was the special guest for the Michigan Christian Red Hat Ladies State convention.   She has shared the stage with Wayburn Dean and Selah, among other artists.
