More about Marianne Axman:
I live in Idaho, USA with my husband and five children ages 10, 8, 7, 6, and 2 (3 adopted and 2 biological). I play the piano frequently as an accompanist. I started to arrange and write music after being unable to find the sheet music for certain songs that I had heard, loved, and really wanted to play. I also arrange folk songs, transcribe songs from movies , and write originals (all available for free on my blog). I enjoy being with my family, landscaping, reading, art, hiking, and anything that takes me outdoors.

Lyrics: Brave Like Esther <br/> <br/>Verse 1 <br/>Brave like Esther as she fasted, <br/>trusting God she faced the king. <br/>True as Ruth was in her sorrow, <br/>she left home to follow God. <br/>Faith like Abish taught in childhood, <br/>staying strong alone in truth. <br/>Pure like Anna ever serving, <br/>she was blessed to see our Savior. <br/>Verse 2 <br/>Brave as Eve was in the garden <br/>when she chose to eat the fruit. <br/>True as Hannah to the Lord <br/>when she was blessed and had a son. <br/>Faith like Sariah and her fam’ly <br/>traveling in the wilderness. <br/>Pure as Mary sweet and gentle, <br/>mortal mother of our Savior <br/>Chorus <br/>Help me to follow after them, <br/>their lives of service and of love. <br/>Help me be brave and true and pure, <br/>have faith and live more perfectly. <br/>
