About this listen

"One night I dreamed a dream. I was walking along the beach with my Lord."

So begins "Footprints," a poem written in 1964 by a young woman named Margaret Fishback, who was searching for direction at the crossroads of her life. The poem has appeared on plaques and cards, calendars, and posters, inspiring millions of people all over the world. The creation of the poem, its subsequent loss, and astonishing rediscovery are intertwined with a life full of challenge, adversity, and joy. This deeply moving and beautiful account tells the complete story behind the poem. The result is a memorable offering of the heart and soul, providing warm spiritual and emotional renewal.
