We want to hear how you or a loved one has been impacted by Natalie's new single, "Our Hope Endures"
"This very honest lyric was written for a woman who was struggling greatly with her battle of cancer. Life so often doesn't make sense and I can so relate with the Psalmist when he wonders why the wicked prosper and the righteous suffer. But our hope endures the worst of conditions. We serve an everlasting, all-knowing, all-sufficient God, our El-Shaddai, our Emmanuel, our only Hope in this life."
Natalie Grant
hola pues que les puedo decir es increible las canciones i de como utiliza DIOS A NATALIE ENVERDAD SON GRANDIOSAS SUS CANCIONES DIOS TE BENDIGA GRANDEMENTE DESDE CALI COLOMBIA
We took a medical team into Haiti last week and are planning further trips. I heard this song right before we left for the first time and when we passed through the torn up buildings and broken streets i heard this song in my heart and it gave me hope! I didn’t feel overwhelmed at all I felt like I could make a difference. Thank you!
In the beginning of 2009 I had a bad mammogram. They saw something they shouldn’t have. I couldn’t believe it. I felt like a failure as a believer in Christ as I wept uncontrollably at the thought of possible cancer. Fear had gripped me. For weeks I waited on results from another mammogram, and finally the results of a biopsy. During that time, God showed me the most amazing thing…HE is in control! Well, duh!
But it finally took THIS to really, really, really, show me and get through my thick skull! In just a few weeks He showed Himself mighty in my life, and I was an example of God’s love and peace during that time. I had such a peace the night before my biopsy results (which were negative!) that friends were amazed. I was clear…it was not me. It was Him! HE is in control. HE is faithful! HE IS!
Wow, this song is simply amazing. I’m in 18. I discovered this song in the summer of 2008. I had had one of the CRAZIEST summers of my life. It literally felt like my world was falling out from under me. I was sooo overwhelmed. “But our hope endures the worst of conditions. It’s more than our optimism. Let the earth quake. Our hope is UNCHANGED.” I had to make that my battle cry.
In the fall of ‘08 one of my prayers was answered, when a family that my heart is tied to was able to adopt a sweet sweet baby boy. He is a miracle and a reminder of God’s faithfulness.
My biggest battle that summer was that one of my closest friends left her home and left her First Love. It was so heartbreaking for me. I prayed and prayed and prayed for her to come back to the Lord. There were some times where I just thought, “Hope doesn’t exist.” But I just had to choose to remember that it DID.
This Monday, God answered my prayers. My friend called to repent and turn her life to Christ again. I was so overwhelmed at God’s goodness. He is amazing!!
“Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes, it is a tree of life.” -Proverbs 13:12
I absolutely love this song. It has alot of meaning for me as I heard it as I was driving home from a long day of driving around the state looking for my husband who had gone missing.. he was found 3 days later…He had gone to be with the Lord… this song tells every inch of my story and through all the pain and heartbreak I know that I can trust in the Lord Jesus Christ to help me get through everyday.
I have allowed God to take control of everything in my life and though I might not understand why events in my life have occured it is not always for me to understand but I am to Love and Trust God.
As it says, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”. This song reminds me that no matter how hard life can get and whatever trials I might face my Hope Endures..
The words spoke to me about my sister who went home to be with the Lord January 26, 2009. Coming up on the one-year anniversary, I reflect back on her battle with Rheumatoid arthritis that ravaged her body so badly that she had only limited use of one arm to barely feed herself. She ended up in a nursing home and yet she still held weekly bible studies and led several of the residents to the Lord before her work here was done. Praise the Lord! She is free at last!
This song means a lot. I feel like this song truly represents my life. Battles, one after the other, keep coming. I can remember a few days ago just saying when is enough enough.
Yes, God is great! Only we can not doubt it. I live in Brazil, many things are happening in my life bad, but he said the world ye shall have tribulation. I look to my Savior in Glory and light, very short and all this will end. I love your music Natalie, I always bring back the hope that God is on my side and I’m not alone, thank you!
The album is awsome!!!! I can hear you love the Lord, the passion for Him in your voice and lirics!!! Pray that He will continue to use and protect you!!! May God’s will be done in your life. Be blessed.
[...] in the world right now, I am so thankful that, in Him, we do have a Hope that Endures. Click here to read the story behind this simply beautiful song written by Christian artist Natalie Grant. [...]
i love your songs!they really can speak to you,and thats the truth!!!!my favorite 2 songs is perfect people,andi will not be moved!!! when iheard this song,iwas like WOW!!!she really knows how to get someone going.
god bless you,

My only reaction is WOW. I just heard your song this morning on my way into work and I cannot believe the number of people who came to mind. The line “let the earth quake” obviously gets me thinking of the devastation in Haiti, and I instantly pray for those who must rebuild their lives. But then I think of my best friend and his family, who have endured a lot over the past two months. I especially pray for his mom, Cheryl. Within weeks of each other, Cheryl learned that her husband had liver and colon cancer, her mother had heart failure, and her only daughter had a very rare and severe cancer in her brain and sinuses. (Her daughter is a worship leader and a flutist, and will most likely go blind if she survives all her treatments.) Everyday the story changes, and all though they are all still alive, every day brings different news. Some days there is good news, but most days there is at least bad news regarding one of them. (As I sit here, I am given word that her mother may not make it thru the night.) It just seems like this nightmare has no end, so ultimately I pray for her strength and sanity, as I know the load on her shoulders is hard to bare. That is where the blessing of this song comes into play. I know now that God sent me this song so I could pass it on to Cheryl (and to her daughter. The cancer may take her sight, but it hasn’t taken her hearing!). Thanks be to God for you and your ministry.
Natalie, You are such a shining example of God’s love. Your songs speak to my heart. I am a youth group leader at my Church and I also volunteer for a program called TEC (Teens Encounter Christ). I had an opportunity to lead a weekend last March and I used your song – “I will not be moved” as a Theme for the TEC weekend. Some of the girls on the weekend had never heard your music and fell in love with it. It was an amazing weekend and I wanted to let you know that you were a part of it in a small way. Coming up in March, God has blessed me with another opportunity to be on a TEC Team. The leader of that team is a dear friend of mine and she chose “Perfect People” as her Theme song for the weekend. Teen girls need to know that they don’t have to be perfect. Jesus loves them just as they are. Your song speaks to that so well. God bless you for what you do. You are touching lives not only by the songs you sing, but also by the example that you set for others. I have a favor to ask. I am hoping that you will see this message and take just a few minutes to maybe send a few inspiring words to the girls that will be attending the TEC weekend in March. You can send it to my email and I will read it to them that weekend. It doesn’t have to be long. I know it’s a lot to ask, but I really think that it would be really special for them to hear from you. Thank you for your time. You are truly an amazing child of God.
Tomorrow morning I will have surgery, my fourth and I hope last one connected with my cancer. It has been a long two and a half years. God is so good, and has carried me through in amazing ways. I have been so thankful for my church, and family and friends. The day I was diagnosed I got into my car leaving the doctors, and you were on the radio singing Held. That summer I had my first masectomy, four weeks later I was in the Key Arena at WOF and got to hear you sing Held again. I bought your CD and heard Our Hope Endures, I love this song because it is so solid, it reminds me that God is always there. I am looking forward to Sept 2010 and hearing you at WOF in Spokane. You are a blessing to so many, thanks for sharing the gift God has given you.
God is so faithful and this song reminds me that my hope is in HIM and HIM alone. Thanks, Natalie!

your friend

I have been listening to “Our Hope Endures” over and over tonight. I am in the midst of praying for so many young friends of mine in different stages of breast cancer. Their faith and hope in the midst of such intense trials has been such a testimony and blessing to me. I had already made plans to forward the song to each of them. Thank you for “singing” truth over all of us! I had you on my IPOD as I spent time with the Lord tonight and it was such an amazing experience.
Hi,i cannot relate to our hope endors but i no alot of people who can……….I<3 ur music and the message in it:~)and when your just entering middle school most of your songs inspire me to keep strong!!!!!!!!!
My mom is the ‘woman whose body is torn by illness but she marches on’…i have not seen such faith and indomitable will as i do in my mom…she is close to 65 and is hanging on by a thread with ovarian cancer. The Spirit surely shines through in your work Ms.Grant. Thank you.
This song represents encouragement I need to hear often in relation to my only child, my son. Five years ago when he was 17, he informed me that he was homosexual. What a journey began that day. From heartbreaking devastation, face down before my Lord who is daily shaping and refining my walk with Him. I know that I may not live to see my son change but hope endures within me that God will bring Eric to Him. I know He is sufficient and loves him even more than I do. I LOVE your music. Please continue your ministry.
I sang this in church in October this year. When I heard it, I was just struck by the lyrics. My father is dying. He has COPD and breathing every day is just a struggle for him. It’s heartbreaking to watch. Also my pastor has been battling chronic pain. When I heard this song I just felt, they needed to hear it as well. My father cried, the pastor cried. One of the things that I love so much about your lyrics is that they are real and about real faith. Like Held points out, we were never promised things would be easy, the promise is we’d be held by the Father through all of our trials. My dad needed to hear that sometimes the sun stays hidden for years but hope can still endure no matter what so long as your hope is in Christ. Thank you so much for your spiritually healing words in a time when only the spirit can be healed.
i take care of a 10 year old blind girl who really thinks alot of you she loves your music she got the idea you wore heels so she had to have a pair. she says her dream is to meet you in person and talk to you. she listens to sunrise every sunday and cries if she dont here you on there. we live in vinton county ohio i would to know when you are going to be close or even 3 or4 hours away so i can take her to one of your shows thank you so much
Your songs are amazing, i love them all!
The real me is amazing, and i wen through the same experience as you.
My Grampa is dieing, and it is comforting to know that God is with me, and him.
Mrs. Grant,
I love your music! My heart is filled with joy every time I hear you on K-Love. God has certainly blessed you with an amazing vioce! When I grow up, I want to be just like you.
Hi
Iam a kenyan lady and i also lost a very close cousin to cancer i know how it feels but your music Nathalie brings hope to us. At this moment iam going through i hard part of my life and yoursong BETTER HANDS has reaaly kept me going. Thank you and may God bless you with more wisdom to reach to other people also like me.
This song is amazing. When I first heard it, I thouht to myself hat I am so blessed with all that God has given me. About a month ago, one of my former teahers from middle school (he was a close personal friend), passed away. He committed suicide, and when I first heard about it I just couldn’t believe it. He was the very last person you would expect to do that sort of thing. He had a wife and 2 kids, one just a year older than me. It was so hard for her….she wasn’t at school for the longest time…that week at church we prayed for the family for God to be with them during that difficult time of loss. And then I listened to that song. That wonderful song. After listening to that song after I had lost hope, I knew that God was right here beside me. Since then, I have made a great relationship with God, and listen to that son daily to remind me of how great God really is and that he is always there right by your side. Thanks, Natalie, for singing his song and putting it on your album. It is a beautiful song, and will always be one of my favorites!
i love this song it touches my heart i have been through so much and your music helps me get through it all. You and your music are such an insperation in my life. I thank you so much for everything you do. That song remindes me to always have hope nomatter how hard life may get because he is my everthing and my all sufficient. It remindes me that i dont have to worry or be afraid because he is in control of my life and he wont steer me wrong.
Thank you so much for your prayers with my husband’s court date. Last month we got postponed,but we did go this week, and it went well, considering. We still have another sentencing in Washington, so please pray for our family. We are grateful for the many who have shown support for us and prayed for us. God has had His hand in this from the beginning, and my faith grows stronger the more we endure. I pray that mercy will rain down in Washington, because we know that what he did was wrong, and yet our children still need their father. Natalie, your music continues to inspire me daily, and remind me that God has not forgotten us. We will do whatever He asks of us, and pray for the strength to endure that which is imposed on our family. We pray for continued guidance, as we are trying to follow a new path in life, one that will glorify God and that will give us peace and happiness as a family. Everyday is a new journey for us, we truly don’t know what tomorrow holds. Thank you again for your support. You really are amazing!
My cousin died of cancer in may 2009, and it was really hard on all of us. When I hear this song I can’t help but think of her.
Oh… This sing seems to be written for me. I have prayed to the poin that I have asked others to pray for me……….beause I just feel so far away from Him. It hurts so bad. I have known the wonder of feeling His power in my life more than most are blessed to ever feel, but it has been long since that. As though someone has ripped my heart out, and is stomping on it.
I lost my Dad 2 years ago. I was very close to my Daddy, and I was with him and Momma all the time. My Dad fought for 3 years a battle that we were told he would loose in weeks. I was there everyday; everyday but one. tThe first time I left for a day, and he went home. I was out of town. My family tried to call me, but I didn’t get the call.
My husband and I started having problems soon after. He resented my itme with my family, and he was cruel. He didn’t even stand with me and my family at the visitation or funeral. Now he is off work on leave due to depression. I don’t think he intends to go back to work, which means I will have to go to work. I have a cronic illness, I have to have insurance.
Please pray for us. I have been hold on to string for so long. My hands are tired. Some days it is even hard to have hope, But God is all I have left. I can’t let go of Him.
Hey!Natalie,i’ve got to say your music is very inspiring especially the song ….perfect people its really encouraging when your trying so hard to be a perfect Christian but that song taught something really important…thanks a lot and may Dad bless you!!!I wanna bless you with my favorite verse..romans 10:15 which says ‘Those who spread the word of God have pretty feet’ I’m guessing your one of the people with pretty feet!!!!
It was sometime in 2008 that I had heard you sing ‘Held’ and ‘Starspangled Banner’ on a Christian network show. It was the very first time I heard you or even heard of you for that matter. I thought to myself, how could I not know somebody this talented and moving! Even my teenaged daughter who does not listen to religious music was moved not only by your songs, but by your really great voice! So I googled you and found you plastered all over the network. I got several of your very inspiring songs from Relentless and Deeper Life and listened to those almost daily. I consoled a friend who had lost a sister by giving her a copy of ‘Held.’ in early 2009.
Then in June 2009, I was sifting through your list of songs again on the net searching for something inspiring for me—for what I was going through. I found ‘Our Hope Endures’ lyrics. When I saw the lyrics, I said gosh I can relate to that. It’s just what I needed.
You see, my family and I have been struck with devastating news the month before, May 2009. Doctors told my parents and sisters that I may not live out past the week. I was in the hospital for 5 days with respiratory failure. Initial tests over those days could not tell what was wrong with me so I had to do a lung biopsy. I remember responding to my mom’s statement while we waited. She said, “I hope we can get through this, whatever it is.” I whispered, “Mom, we get through anything!”. And I really believed that then as I do now.
At 42 years old, never-smoker, wife and mother of 3, I was diagnosed with Lung cancer Stage IV. I had to move my husband and children into my parent’s home for care, as i was on oxygen and couldn’t do much for myself. This was when I downloaded your song and used it as an anthem. An anthem to sing out when I felt a bit of fear creeping up on me. I sung it mostly when I thought of what my family would go through if I died. I knew that pain….My mom lost her only son in an accident when he was 24. He was my dad’s 2nd son. I was 18 yrs old and remember the tragedy. I prayed dearly to God to spear my parents and sisters this pain again.
The family has seen too much in one lifetime….my mom lost her father at the tender age of 2yrs. Her brother died at the age of 18 when she was 20. She always relates to us how terrible she thought that felt until she lost her son. Though I knew how strong in faith and spirit we were — that my family would get through it if I died, I prayed that they didn’t have to. THank GOD…This week, I moved back home as I am off oxygen and feeling strong. My cancer treatment seem to be working. Our prayers are working! I know that without God we could not endure. I am still here when no one expected me to be and I pray to live for my parents and sisters, my young 10 and 12 year old sons, my not-so-mature 19 year-old daughter and my husband whom I’ve known for 14 years. Our wedding anniversary is December 28th. Our Hope Endures!
Natalie, I want to sing this song for my family in mass, now that I can breathe and sing again. BUT, I need a copy of the instrumental/background.
We (my father, 4 sisters and my daughter) sing as a family choir once every 4th Sunday in our church. I don’t want to ask my dad to play the guitar because I want it to be a surprise.
Thanks for allowing the opportunity to tell my story. I look forward to your assistance.

ps. I am a facebook/nataliegrant fan so you can check out my profile on facebook!
My mother died when she was 52 of nasal-pharynx cancer. I was 27. My dad died at 58 from lung cancer. I was 32. My uncle died at 51 of stomach cancer. I was 34. I suffered 3 miscarriages in the same period. I thought I had suffered my share…like the song says…and that life would be kinder. A few years later, my husband had a heart attack at 43. He survived, but weakened. Three months later my only child, a daughter, told me she was pregnant at 15. Her interrupted childhood my loss. I was 42. A few years later, my only sister passed away from breast cancer at age 38. I was 50. My brother just turned 50 – disabled with rheumatoid arthritis. I’ve had to give up a dream to study for my Ph.D., having a breast cancer scare of my own, and now heart complications. My husband talks of dissolving our marriage of 31 years. I’m 54. I am often in tears, but each day my faith pulls me back from the abyss. The song says it all. Let the earth quake…my God is sufficient and will see me through. My hope endures. Praise God! In all of these losses, I count my blessings – 3 beautiful grandchildren, a strong and faithful young woman in my daughter, a caring son-in-law, wonderful memories of my parents and sister, deeper relationships with my brothers. I don’t expect that I’ve suffered my share anymore. There may be more…I don’t know. I do know that I’m not alone, that God will hold me; walk with me. My hope truly endures. My faith is stronger, deeper, more powerful.
i’m from Nigeria in Africa. i’ve been listening to Natalie’s songs for weeks now and today i decided to get information about her. reading the lyrics of our hope endures almost made me drop tears. our hope truly endures the worst conditions. it will take me some time to fully digest the depth of this song. Natalie, thank u for allowing God use u as his voice to the nations.
I found you from your appearance on our Sacramento & Company morning show and I was struck by how your music is positive, says that we are meant to use our Gifts to share with others.
So I came to your site and read and heard this song. My own beloved Mother was lost in body to brain lymphoma and I too am dedicating myself to music in Her honor. She is with me, someday I hope to join her in Heaven. She’s an Angel forevermore. I just hope I’m following God’s plan for me. Thank you for leading the way, Dear Natalie. It would be so wonderful to meet you someday. If you ever wanted a saxophonist to join in on something. It would be such a joyous honor.
Blessings, Love and Christmas Miracles to you and your family,
Ava
Dec 6th at Mount Gilead Ohio, Date night for me and my beautiful wife I surprised her with tickets. Natalie you brought the voice of an angel and God; and all of us there were enjoying the ministry and I can’t wait to hear you live again. God Bless
Natalie Grant I’m your biggest fan, I l love your music. I even know some by heart. It is true Our hope endures and is unchanged. We all have hope and should never loose it. God wants everyone to have hope especially through bad times. But Natalie your not supposed to celebrate holloween
Natalie,
Will you sing this at your Christmas show next Friday night in ST. Louis…..I love the message…thanks!
kristin
I’d like to know more about the boy that was burned and for whom you wrote the song “in better hands.”
Yesterday was a black day for me. I’m a mother of 3 beautiful children ages 5 to 1 and I have a good husband, but somehow life got to me and I wanted it to end. I just wanted to go home. As I contemplated how to take my life, God whispered to me that He’s not done with me yet. That there is still hope. Even though life can be difficult, He’s there with arms open wide to help us through the storms. Sometimes we feel like we have all the answers and sometimes we don’t have anything. But the one true and steadfast and certain thing we have is God. He will never fail us. He will always wait for us to return to Him. He will ALWAYS love us, no matter what. Thank you for the songs from your heart that are a constant reminder that there is something greater out there.
Natalie,
In June of 2007, my mother, two sisters, sister in laws and nieces attended the Woman of Faith in St. Louis and had the pleasure of seeing your performance. My mother was in extreme pain with what we thought were broken ribs but was soon to learn was Multiple Myeloma, a cancer of the plasma cells. She passed away the end of July. She was a true woman of faith and inspiration to us all. In November of the same year my oldest sister was diagnosed with lung cancer and in January of 2008 my second oldest sister was diagnosed with lung cancer. Your song Our Hope Endures has been a real inspiration to us all through these trying times. My mother has taught us all our lives that we must keep the Faith and trust in God and your song just reassures us of that. Thanks for your beautiful music and we hope to see you again in St. Louis.
I have been going to a Christian church that my older sister attends and thats where I first heard your song “The real me”. I’ve been married fro 21 years and not in a healthy relation. But with your songs I have realized that God knows the real me and he has a purpose for my life and he loves me no matter what. My husband and I just got separated and I’m going through some hard times but I will survive this storm. Your songs are such a blessing to this world. Thank you for your beautiful songs.

My family was split up during part of the summer, I was and had been lost. Emotionally and spiritually. Your song helped to keep me ground after finding myself and my faith in Jesus Christ.
My family has since been reunited, and my wife and I closer and stronger than ever before. My daughter Jacqui age 13 LOVES your music and my whole family to be out to see you next summer when you come to the Turlock Fair Grounds.
Thank you for sharing your awesome gift with the world, I know I will not be moved again.
Sincerely,
John Peterson
This song has been and still is such a GREAT BLESSING! The good Lord knows how hard these past two years have been and these last few months. BUT when I hear this song it gives me strength to know that I still have HOPE in the Lord Jesus and only He can satisfy my life, my soul, my mind and heart. I thank God for your talent and Pray that you may keep on writing great songs for His honor and glory. Thank you!
I was telling a friend a few days ago that I have never had so much tragedy as I have experienced in the past ten years. He was kind to say”it gets worse the older you get”, ha ha thanks a lot. Last week our family lost my niece. Her name was Melisa, she was 31 , she was a beautiful person. I loved her very much and we are grieving deeply. She leaves behind two little boys, please say a prayer for them, Aiden 6, and Alex 9 mo. This song has been on my mind since I got the news. I want to play it at her memorial. I believe many will be touched and encouraged by it. Our hope can only be placed in Jesus, he is my rock.
My name is Lisa, I am a blessed Woman today, I was a wreck , drug atticted , alcoholic, my life was a mess, at 22, Was when I first learned the Love of God. I was pregnant, living a uncontrollable life,about to have an abortion in the clinic, but walked out. I went to recovery home stayed there for 2weeks. left and got high. It wasnt til my Aunt clydie Spoke of this Jesus and said I could be white as Snow did I turn my life and will to him. I would like to say it was stayed that way, but the world did take me out again. I did have a real blessing the child I was carring was born health and beautiful inside and out. She now is 20 years old and serves God whole heartly. I still struggled with life and wasnt able to fight the worldly things. I now have become a confident Woman In Christ. For the lasted 3yrs I have stood on that Solid ground, with all other ground sinking. I have totally surrendered my life to God, I know now that my past has been pardened and future Secured,on the wings of my lords Forgiveness. I am a mother of 5 ages 25-10, An God has given me a mothers Heart. thanks for your beautiful music.. God has blessed me through your songs.. Lisa A.
I first heard this song as I was driving to be with family after unexpectedly losing an aunt who was like a mom. In the past year and a half I have gotten divorced, struggled financially, battled with my ex-husband over our daughters, lost a grandma, lost my 23 year old sister-in-law and unborn nephew in a car accident, and now my aunt…..I have been feeling like life will never get “back on track”. Then I heard this song and realized I need to lean on my faith and let God take control of my life again. Hope Endures reminded me that I DO have hope for the future because of God and His love for me. I just have to let go of my fears.
