One of my heroes is Mother Teresa. I love and admire her so much that I wrote a song about her. In concert we usually run this video while we sing so it is more of an accompaniment video than an actual music video but I still love it. Hope you enjoy.

Awesome song and video. What a great tribute for an amazing woman. I hope to see/hear it live one day!
I have to admit that when I listened to the sound clips on your web site, I barely even noticed "Teresa" there.
But when the CD came and I started listening, I realized I had found a precious pearl that touched my heart in a very unexpected way.
If I can learn to die to myself and live for the Lord even 1/10000th of the way she did, I know I'll be closer to the heart of Jesus than I ever imagined possible.
Thanks for this amazing work. You have no idea how much the Lord can use this to move hearts for Him.
An argument started among the disciples as to which of them would be the greatest.
Jesus, knowing their thoughts, took a little child and had him stand beside Him. Then He said to them, "Whoever welcomes this little child in My name welcomes Me; and whoever welcomes Me welcomes the One who sent Me. For he who is least among you all—he is the greatest."
Luke 9:46-48
i don't think that we as humans have even begun to tap into the holiness, kindness, and grace that was Christ's. but...she came closest. I hope I can know a little of it day by day. but, i have to die to self first. am I ready for that kind of refiner's fire? a white robe and a starving child's hand?
Thanks for encouragement!
There is this prayer that she prayed everday that I think is so beautiful. I thought it was so beautiful that I found a recording of her saying it and put it on the album before the song! I say it sometimes as a part of my prayers.
"Dear Jesus help me to spread thy fragrance, everywhere I go. Flood my soul with Thy Spirit and Love. Penetrate and posses my whole being so uterly, that all my life may be a radiance of Thine. Shine through me and be so in me that every soul I come in contact with may feel Thy presence in my soul. Let them look up and see no longer me, but only Jesus"
Wow, thanks for posting the video, Kat. That really means alot.
Here's a story about Mother Teresa that I love. Seth, you told me this one.
She had an interview of some sort with President Clinton regarding abortion. She was of course, opposed. She spoke around the world about it. And they were discussing this.
She said, "But all those babies. Just give them all to me."
President Clinton just stopped, had nothing to say in return, until he finally said, "How do you argue with a life so well lived?"
I linked to it too. Great post, great song. It finally prompted me to get around to ordering the album, which I've been meaning to do. Thank you for the good work.
