His Daughter

Everything is gonna be alright She whispers to herself She was only 6 years old that night As she hid behind that shelf Cause 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 Broken hearts and scars in only places she could see Cause she just wanted, she just wanted to feel something And as she sat there on her bed Thinking bout what those girls said 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've 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 a helping hand To your daughter Well her path started to change She reached out and grabbed God's grace And finally, she saw a light Until that night Where she decided one drink was alright And one thing led to another 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 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've 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 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 And her heart felt peace, cause she finally understood God's love So as she laid there in that bed 99 years old She grabbed her son's hand and said There's something you must know There is a God up 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 Cause there's a Father who will love you as His own Just like he loved his daughter Like he loved His daughter
