Lee Ann Womack is climbing the country charts with her latest single, 'There Is a God,' and she knew the first time she heard the song she had to record it.

"It's such a simple song," Lee Ann tells The Boot. "It basically just says, 'Take a look around and try to tell me there isn't a God.' And don't you have those moments when you feel like that? You're on top of a hill and you see a beautiful scene, or like the part about the ultrasound and the baby."

The Texas native connects to the song as if she wrote it herself. "I'll never forget the first time I heard Aubrey's heartbeat when I went to the doctor," Lee Ann explains. "I was so not prepared, and I was 23 years old and by myself. My husband was on the road, so I had to go to my own doctor's visits by myself. And I'll just never forget the doctor saying, 'Oh, we get to hear the heartbeat today,' and he stuck that thing on my stomach and heard her little heart beating. It was like one of those moments. There has to be a God if I'm hearing this inside my body. Those are all the things that flash before me when I heard that song."

Just because Lee Ann believes, as the lyrics of the song say, that there is a God, and she's always careful to take a few minutes each day to count her blessings, she doesn't want people to think she is preaching to them. "Especially the way I am, my personality, the way I live my life, I don't like to tell anybody how to live their life, because I don't want anybody telling me how to live mine. But this song is so just so personal to me."

Lee Ann is currently on the road with George Strait and Reba McEntire, and they're scheduled to make their next stop in Portland, Ore., on March 26.
