"Everything's gonna be alright"
She whispers to herself
She was only 6 years old
The night that she hid behind that shelf
'Cuz daddy had a little too much to drink
And momma didn't want her to feel the pain
She felt
But she still felt the pain
Well 10 years , they came and went
And dad was gone
So she looked for love in other men
And tried to act strong
Oh broken hearts and scars in only places she could see
'Cuz she just wanted
She just wanted to feel something
And as she sat there on her bed
Thinkin' bout what those girls said
Tears streamed from her eyes, she cried
"If there's a God out there,
Please here my prayer,
I'm lost and I'm scared
And I got nowhere else to go,
I've come a long, long way
But I'm not sure I can make it much farther
So if you're listening
Could you give helping hand to your daughter"
Well her path started to change
She reached out and grabbed God's grace
And finally she saw light
Until the night when she decided
One drink was all right
And one thing led to another
Well next thing you know, 9 months go by
She's a mother
And as she laid there in the bed
Stroking that small angel's head
Tears streamed from her eyes, she cried
"If there's a God out there
Please hear my prayer
I'm lost and I'm scared
And I got nowhere else to run
I've come a long, long way
But I'm not sure I can be the best mother
So if you're listening
Could you give helping hand
To your daughter"
Well that baby
Grew into a boy
Who became her pride and joy
He loved her like no man could
And her heart felt peace 'cuz she finally understood
God's love
So as she laid there in the bed
99 years old
She grabbed her sons hand and said,
"There's something you must know,
There is a God out there
Who heard my prayer
I was lost and afraid
And I had nowhere else to go
I had no clue what to do
And then He sent me you
So if you're lost and afraid
And you feel so alone,
Don't worry child
'cuz there's a father that will love you as His own
Just like He loved His daughter
Like He loved His daughter"
