WHEN WORDS HURT — A Song About Love, Loss, and Compassion

 

❤️ WHEN WORDS HURT — A Song About Love, Loss, and Compassion

The Catholic Journey with Deacon Pat Kearns

Some of the deepest heartbreaks in life are the ones the world never sees.

For parents who have experienced miscarriage, the loss is more than the loss of a pregnancy. It is the loss of a precious child, the dreams they had already imagined, and a future they had already begun to love.

Often, people try to offer comfort with words like, "You can always try again," or "Everything happens for a reason." Although usually spoken with good intentions, these words can sometimes deepen the pain.

My new song, "When Words Hurt," was inspired by the grief of parents who have lost a baby and the importance of simply being present for someone who is suffering.

The song reminds us that we don't always need to find the right words. Sometimes the greatest expression of love is a listening ear, a hand to hold, or simply sitting beside someone in their sorrow.

As Scripture reminds us:

"Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep." — Romans 12:15

This song also accompanies my new book, The Child I Never Got to Hold: 40 Days of Faith, Grief, and Healing After Miscarriage, written to offer compassion, spiritual encouragement, and Christian hope to grieving mothers and fathers.

To every parent who has experienced this heartbreaking loss:

Your child mattered. Your love was real. Your grief deserves compassion. And you are not alone.

I hope this song touches hearts, brings comfort to those who are grieving, and reminds all of us to be a little more gentle with one another.

🎵 Please listen, and consider sharing this song with someone who may need its message today.

🙏 God bless you all.
