Her parents never took the young girl to church |
| [00:23.400] |
Never spoke of His name |
| [00:26.400] |
Never read her His word |
| [00:29.400] |
Two non-believers walking lost in this world |
| [00:34.400] |
Took their baby with them |
| [00:37.400] |
What a sad little girl |
| [00:41.400] |
Her daddy drank all day and mommy did drugs |
| [00:46.400] |
Never wanted to play |
| [00:48.400] |
Or give kisses and hugs |
| [00:52.400] |
She'd watch the TV and sit there on the couch |
| [00:57.400] |
While her mom fell asleep |
| [01:00.400] |
And her daddy went out |
| [01:04.400] |
And the drinking and the fighting |
| [01:10.400] |
just got worse every night |
| [01:15.400] |
Behind their couch she'd be hiding |
| [01:22.400] |
Oh what a sad little life |
| [01:39.400] |
And like it always does, the bad just got worse |
| [01:44.400] |
With every slap and every curse |
| [01:50.400] |
Until her daddy in a drunk rage one night |
| [01:55.400] |
Used a gun on her mom and then took his life |
| [02:03.400] |
And some people from the city took the girl far away |
| [02:14.400] |
To a new mom and a new dad |
| [02:20.400] |
kisses and hugs everyday |
| [02:37.400] |
Her first day of Sunday school the teacher walked in |
| [02:43.400] |
And a small little girl |
| [02:45.400] |
Stared at a picture of Him |
| [02:49.400] |
She said I know that man up there on that cross |
| [02:55.400] |
I don't know His name |
| [02:57.400] |
But I know He got off |
| [03:01.400] |
Cause He was there in my old house |
| [03:08.400] |
and held me close to His side |
| [03:13.400] |
As I hid there behind our couch |
| [03:19.400] |
The night that my parents died |
