Viral Christian singer Forrest Frank has written another song about broken bones, but this time his inspiration is award-winning “Grave Robber” artist David Crowder.

Crowder shared with his fans last Wednesday (Aug. 6) that he wasn’t as “near as athletic as [he] thought [he] was,” explaining that he broke his leg and he needed “emergency surgery including some plates and screws.”

Less than a month ago, Frank fractured his both his L3 and L4 vertebrae after crashing his skateboard.

While documenting his painful recovery journey on social media, Frank shared that when he woke up exactly 14 days after he broke his back, he was healed. Frank and others are characterizing the healing as miraculous.

During his recovery process, Frank videoed himself recording two new songs that were inspired by his accident—”God’s Got My Back” and “Lemonade.”

Frank’s single “Lemonade,” which includes The Figs, reached No. 1 on iTunes’ All Genre chart during the first day of its release.

“David Crowder has now broken his leg, and apparently I am the broken bone guy because he tagged me in his post saying that he broke his leg,” Frank laughingly said in an Instagram video. “I’m sorry I’m laughing. Not to be cliché, but God is turning lemons into lemonade always, if you will allow him to anyways.”

“As I’m looking at this post, I’m thinking, you may not be able to stand out of your bed, but you can stand on the rock of Jesus Christ, so I started a song,” Frank continued.

Frank then told Crowder, “If you want to be a part of it, let me know. If you have some tweaks, if you have some notes, let me know.”
