The Lodestar

Bound to a wheelchair since her early age, suffering from a strange form of chronic arthritis from which she never recovered, Annie Flint wrote “He Giveth More Grace, as the burden grow greater.”

She is called a “poet of hope” though her life was an epitome of pain and suffering. A childless couple raised her when she lost both parents before she was six years old. When she turned a teen a severe form of arthritis caught up with which prevented her from playing the piano. She did not surrender her faith to her weakness but decided to write poetry though her ambition was to be composer. Later in life, the arthritis turned so bad that she could not open her hands to use the typewriter, but she continued to type songs of hope using her knuckles.

Living Stones Quartet (LSQ) based in Kottayam, Kerala has produced an enchanting rendition of her most famous song, “He Giveth More Grace!”

LSQ team features Alen Itty Jose, Jithin Mathew Abraham, Olive Abraham and Blesson Joseph as the vocalists and Rohan George Umesh as our instrumentalist.

Ever since their first concert in Kottayam, LSQ has done over fifty live concerts in India and around the globe and has released over sixty videos of covers and a few originals on their YouTube channel.

Having celebrated 10 years in their calling for the Lord to do ministry, they keep pressing forward with the same zeal and love for their mission as when they had started.
