My friend told me about her church sewing/knitting group. They made shawls for those who need prayers. Then I found out she had cancer. This is my song interpretation of that group of women, in the church basement, praying for those who need it.

I’m not a musician, but I refer to ‘toggling’ as the going back and forth between two chords for an extended period. What it does here is it rocks the listener as one would a baby or one that needed comfort. The song IS a prayer and it might be my favorite one of yours this FAWM.
