Story Behind The Song
My husband got a job after 9 months of being unemployed. He called with me the news within a half an hour of my calling him to tell him that I was about to lose my job. When he called me and said "you don't have to worry so much..hold your head up high..I got the job" I burst into tears and realized the power of devine intervention.
Everything changed for me in that one moment.
Song Description
After a long hardship with nothing but sadness and rain the winter ends and the sun appears and finally you get that needed break that you have been praying for. Testament to the saying that God gives you what you need not what you want. Just when you didn't think you could go on one more minute the door opens and you can breathe oncde more.

Lyrics
One Moment
The winter is behind me
When darkness grew inside me
My angels stayed beside me
When my faith began to wane
The heartache and the madness
The constant state of sadness
Questioning why I had this
Heavy cross to bear
In one moment life began to change
My heart became unchained and
The darkness lost control
In one moment
The sun replaced the storm
I'm believing once more
In one moment
Where there was only desperation
I feel a spark of inspiration
And it feels so right
In one moment
That one moment
Changed my life
If only I was stronger
Wouldn't have wasted a minute longer
Wondering about the hunger
And how it would be fed
The spirit and the body
Wrestle like an army
Protect me or harm me
The choice is always mine
Repeat chorus and end with:
One
Moment
One
Moment
One.
