"Nothing Sacred - A Song For Kirsty" by Russell Watson

In late 2002, Russell Watson released the single "Nothing Sacred - A Song For Kirsty" to raise money for the Francis House children's hospice in Didsbury, Manchester. Their campaign to raise £5 million was fronted by Kirsty Howard, a seven-year-old girl with a serious heart defect.



Lyrics

If a love as strong as ours
Couldn't make it all the way
Can anything make sense at all?

If a love so deep and true
Couldn't stand the test of time
Then Mount Everest could slide
And Jerusalem could fall

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?

Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth the fighting for?

If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Our love was as certain as the dawn
As solid and safe as it ever could be
Our love was a star you wish upon
And you thought that I said "you"
I could have sworn that you say "me"

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth the fighting for?

If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?

Is a promise something people used to keep
When love was worth the fighting for?

If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?

If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is nothing sacred anymore?

"Lord Heavenly Father, You are the almighty. We pray that you bless your healing hands upon those who are in need for they like us are all your precious ones". Should it be Your will for us to suffer, You will made the suffering more bearable because You are with us always. And for all these we pray in the most glorious name of Jesus. Amen!"
