Country Artist Lee Ann Womack, “When I heard the lyrics of ‘I Hope You Dance’ the first time, my children came to mind immediately. There are the things I want for them in life: to feel small when they stand beside the ocean, to give faith a fighting chance, to give the heavens above more than just a passing glance. I remember thinking if they understand the meaning of this lyric when they’re grown, I’ll have done my job as their mother.

I had nothing to do with writing this song or book but thankfully, I’ve been asked to be a part of both. Mark Sanders & Tia Sillers, have done a beautiful job–as our writers in Nashville are known to do–of putting into words the very things that the rest of us want and need to say but aren’t sure how. They are masters of their craft and I consider myself truly blessed to have been the vehicle to bring their song to so many millions of people.”

Few songs have inspired a nation as did Lee Ann Womack’s “I Hope you Dance.” It affirms life and challenges you to live fully, joyously and with abandon. The companion book published in 2001 perfectly captured the message of the song and, with 1.7 million copies sold, became one of the best selling books of this decade.
