God spared the life of pastor’s kid and Christian musician Anya Lee, so now she is dedicating her life to sharing the gospel through music.
In 2019, Lee had to be brought back to life multiple times after onlookers found her slumped over on the Appalachian Trail. “They found me slumped over. I was turning gray. So they revived me, put me in their car,” Lee shared.
“I was gone again and they revived me again. They get me to a clinic and urgent care immediately transports me to the hospital,” Lee told ChurchLeaders. “I was diagnosed with dehydration, hypothermia, and a severe case of rhabdomyolysis.”

As she came back to consciousness in a hospital bed, Lee described having “the feeling that I have had in this deep pit in my being that I didn’t do what I was supposed to before this situation.”
She said, “I was settling for, ‘Well, let me sing worship at church and let me be involved in the winter cantatas and stuff, and that’ll be enough.’”
“I had been wasteful and there was this thing has been gnawing at me ever since I woke up that told me I had made a mistake,” said Lee.
“It will not happen again,” Lee explained. “And now it’s go time. And the only times that feeling tends to quell just a bit is if I’m writing music, if I’m recording music, if I’m studying my music. If I’m in it, that hunger dies down just a bit.”
“But I can always tell it’s been too long when I’m sitting on the couch and I’m restless because it’s been a couple days since I’ve done what I was supposed to be doing,” she continued. “So it’s wild and wonderful.”
Lee is answering God’s call with her new single “God Made It.” The song encourages the church that no matter how bad the day might seem, God is still in control.

“One of the things that I’d been struggling with a lot was some of these bad days,” Lee said. “Some of these horrible, rock bottom scenarios and situations that I’d been dealing with and just trying to make myself have a good day.”
