We're Going To Love Her Through It

It's 5 a.m. and my sister and I are about to head to the hospital for my mom's surgery, which will be at 9 a.m. I wanted to post the lyrics to Martina McBride's new song "I'm Going to Love You Through It." Last night mom and I were watching Dancing with the Stars and Martina sang this song live. Um...tear jerker!

This song describes my mom and dad to a T. The love they have for one another. They are best friends and I think it's going to be there song through this cancer journey. Cancer, no cancer, hair, no hair, boobs, no boobs - he's going to love her through it!

She dropped the phone and burst into tears

The doctor just confirmed her fears

Her husband held it in and held her tight

Cancer don’t discriminate or care if you’re just 38

With three kids who need you in their lives

He said, "I know that you’re afraid and I am, too

But you’ll never be alone, I promise you"

When you’re weak, I’ll be strong

When you let go, I’ll hold on

When you need to cry, I swear that I’ll be there to dry your eyes

When you feel lost and scared to death,

Like you can’t take one more step

Just take my hand, together we can do it

I’m gonna love you through it.

She made it through the surgery fine

They said they caught it just in time

But they had to take more than they planned

Now it's forced smiles and baggy shirts

To hide what the cancer took from her

But she just wants to feel like a woman again

She said, "I don't think I can do this anymore"

He took her in his arms and said "That's what my love is for"

When you’re weak, I’ll be strong

When you let go, I’ll hold on

When you need to cry, I swear that I’ll be there to dry your eyes

When you feel lost and scared to death,

Like you can’t take one more step

Just take my hand, together we can do it

I’m gonna love you through it.

And when this road gets too long

I'll be the rock you lean on

Just take my hand, together we can do it

I’m gonna love you through it.

I’m gonna love you through it.

(Martina McBride)
