Please be in prayer for this family

I don't usually go to 'deep' with you all but I had to share this today. During Piper's nap today, I came upon this blog while reading another blog I keep up with. http://themcclenahans.blogspot.com/ They just lost their 10 month old baby girl to cancer after finding out just 3 weeks ago that she was ill. I do not personally know them but can only imagine the pain they are feeling. My heart is heavy for them right now. This strikes so close to home b/c Piper is so close in age. Please join me in praying for them. They know the Lord which will comfort them so much more in this terribly painful time.
Lately, the Lord has been laying this song on my heart whenever I come across hard/painful situations that either I have been facing or those close to me are facing.

My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
His oath, His covenant, and blood
Support me in the whelming flood;
When every earthly prop gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found,
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne!
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
