Two-time GRAMMY Award nominee and DOVE Award winner Blessing Offor (who gave us hits like "Brighter Days" and "The Goodness" along with TobyMac) has recently released a brand-new track, “Somebody’s Child,” featuring a collaboration with global music icon Dolly Parton. Blessing’s poignant vocal and masterful piano playing introduces “Somebody’s Child,” before Dolly joins in along with vocal choir to bring it all home. 

“We’re all ‘somebody’s child,’ Blessing explains. “It’s such a simple concept, but I hope it’s the beginning of us all realizing that there’s always a point of empathy, there’s always common ground if we want to find it. And there’s no better embodiment of finding common ground, finding relatability, than Dolly Parton. I’m so honored and humbled to have her on this project.” 

“I know it’s too easy to say it was a blessing singing with Blessing,” Dolly says, “but it was. I love the song ‘Somebody’s Child’ and I am very proud to be a part of it.”

Written by Blessing, Josh Ronen, and Joy Williams, “Somebody’s Child” gives an important reminder about humanity in our society, and that every day spent with the ones you love is a treasured gift.
