I Prayed have prayed
Thank You, Lord, for our state prayer leaders and how they're supporting each other to save the lives of the preborn.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

Two IFA state prayer group leaders collaborated to produce a song in the voice of a preborn baby pleading: “Mother, let me live.”

Zoraida Noratto, one of the IFA state prayer leaders in California, was in a time of prayer in the spring of 2020, at the start of the COVID lockdowns, and she was praying against child sacrifice. She prayed: “Father, I don’t know how this reality could change. How can we stop this iniquity from happening every day in the world, unless You change the hearts of men and women?” She said she wanted to sit down with every man and woman and plead with them: “Please listen to your baby. Hear the voice of your baby.”

“Since the Scripture tells us to speak for those who have no voice, the words of this song came out of my heart very easily,” Noratto said.

She reached out on the IFA Signal chat for state prayer group leaders, letting them know that she’d written the song, and asking if anyone knew someone who could record it.

Audrey Frykenberg, an IFA Wisconsin state prayer group leader, has a music background, and she responded to Zoraida’s request. The two collaborated and then recorded the song at a studio in Madison.

They’ve given IFA permission to share it here:

Here’s our interview about it at the IFA 50th Anniversary event:

Dear Father of the Unborn,
With all my heart I ask that you promote this song worldwide, not only in churches, and Christian gatherings but in the whole world, in places and hearts that have hardly ever seen a glimpse of your lovingkindness. I fervently pray that wherever this song is played that the Holy Spirit will wring the hearts of the hearers and change their thinking to align with your perfect will for the preborn. I ask that these lyrics be published and performed on every stage. on bumperstickers, in theaters, and most of all in all the hearts of men and women the world over.
Gracious Abba, thank you for the gift of a song straight from your own heart.
In Jesus Name, Amen

This is a heartfelt song. I would love to get this song out!! . My testimony I tell often. As a kid over 40 years ago I worked in an Abortion Clinic. I had no concept of what I was doing. I just wanted a job. I remember my Mother just looking at me when I told her. I know my parents wanted me to work. It was the doctor who got me out of there. She called me into “the room”, where they look at the aborted fetus! She picked up with the tweezer this tiny arm with its fist balled up. I screamed and ask her why she showed me that. She said you need to know what is really happening here. This testimony I share with a lot of women! I’m just one person but I’m glad that God is using me.

Amarillo Texas is fighting a battle for the unborn. Several cities and counties have adopted an ordinance that goes hand in hand with the Heart Beat Act. But the ordinance takes it one more step by securing the right to life at conception. The city council is opposed. Pleas keep Amarillo Texas in your prayers. I would love to get this song out to our community!

The best way to save a baby’s life is to first save their mother’s life!
John Hagee Ministries has built special housing for unmarried pregnant girls where they can live with their babies, and can even continue their schooling.
If John Hagee Ministries can do that, so can other churches even if not on the large scale that his church has been blessed to be able to do.
If there is room in the heart, there is room at the hearth, so everyone with a home with a spare bedroom can help a single mother who wants her baby to live and to be adopted rather than get a excruciating and cruel abortion. Offering hospitality to an unmarried mother for nine months is all it takes to save a baby’s life because babies can be adopted on the day of their birth–and many couples are waiting years to adopt a baby. My daughter and her husband were fortunate enough to be able to adopt a day old baby (who is now six years old) and he is a huge source of joy to all of us. God bless his precious birth mom for her sacrifice that has brought such happiness to our family and which also spared her the horrific grief of living with the painful memories of having aborted this wonderful, precious little child.

I think it would be powerful if they had small children’s voices singing these words rather than adults.
