One of the young survivors of July’s catastrophic flash flooding in Texas has written a song in tribute to the 27 girls from Camp Mystic killed in the disaster.

Skyler Darrington, 12, shared her revised rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” on US TV show Fox & Friends. “That event really helped my faith grow,” she said during the broadcast. “All my friends were there. We sung during the tragic event, and it just helped us grow.”

Christian musician Lauren Daigle joined Darrington on the show following her performance.
