"My wife and I had twins about two years ago," shares Phil. "We are so grateful for the gift of getting to be parents. This past summer, we learned that some good friends of ours had lost a child in the womb. This couple is near and dear to us, and hearing their news broke our hearts. Shortly after this, another couple we're friends with found out they were pregnant with twins. We were overjoyed and celebrating with them. Yet again, my wife got another phone call with more devastating news that they had lost their "Baby B," a reference to the second child conceived in a twin pregnancy. In our journey of becoming twin parents, "Baby B" would have been our son. Hearing this news and imagining the pain of losing our own son is what set me on course to compose 'Miscarriages.'"
Phil continued, "In Heaven, families are reunited every day. My hope is that as people hear this song, they are reassured with the truth that their baby (or, in some cases, many babies) was not actually lost. Rather, as this song emphasizes, their children are safe in Heaven with Jesus, waiting for them on the other side of eternity. I hope that this truth will prevail in the hearts and minds of people who have struggled with the grief of miscarriage as they listen."
Phil is passionate about composing and sharing music that points people to Jesus. His songs include the multilingual worship anthem "So Worthy,'' which has been embraced by audiences around the world; as well as "Not Forgotten," a powerful pro-life ballad he performed in 2019 with Francesca Battistelli before more than 20,000 people at Focus on the Family's "Alive From New York" event in Times Square. King has also written and co-penned songs for such artists as Matt Redman, Leeland, Micah Tyler, Christine D'Clario and Rita Springer, and he has been featured on recordings and at live events with Lauren Daigle, Michael W. Smith, Jekalyn Carr and Danny Gokey, among others. Formerly a worship leader with Christ for the Nations and a worship pastor at Dallas' Gateway Church, King currently serves as a worship pastor at Trinity Fellowship Church in Amarillo, Texas. He and his wife Kalyn are the parents of a twin son and daughter.
