His Daughter

Everything's gonna be alright She whispers to herself She was only 6 years old that night As she hid behind that shelf Cuz daddy had a little too much to drink And mama 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 (Once) 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 down her eyes (Once. Pause) She cried If there's a God out there Please hear my prayer. I'm lost and I'm scared and I've got no where else to go I've come a long, long way (Once. Pause.) But I'm not sure I can make it much farther ... So if you're listening, could you give a helping hand To your daughter. Well her path started to change She reached out and grabbed God's grace (Once) And finally, she saw a light (No chord) Until that night where She decided one drink was alright 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 that bed Stroking that small angel's head Tears streamed down her eyes (Once. Pause) She cried If there's a God out there Please here my prayer. I'm lost and I'm scared and I've got no where else to run I've come a long, long way (Once. Pause) But I'm not sure I can be the best mother So if you're listening, could you give a 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 Am (Once. Pause) And her heart felt peace, cuz she finally understood God's love. And as she laid there in that bed 99 years old She grabbed her son's hand and said (Once. Pause) There's something you must know... There is a God up there Who heard my prayer I was lost and afraid And I had no where else to go. I had know clue, what to do (Once. Pause) And then He sent me you. So if you're lost and afraid and you feel so alone don't worry child (Once) cuz there's a Father who will love you as His own Just like he loved his daughter. Like he loved His daughter. (End on )
