From God's Arms to My Arms to Yours
Perhaps the most requested song from Michael McLean is his beloved adoption song “From Gods Arms to My Arms to Yours.” Now anyone in the adoption process- birth mothers and their families as well as adoptive parents and their families- will treasure this beautiful, heartfelt gift book with CD. Along with the title song the book and CD also include “The Gift We Could Not Give Each Other,” written from the perspective of the adoptive parents; “Yours,” the imagined words of an adopted child; and two brand-new songs: “Hardest for Me” and “There is Hope Hiding There.”
