[00:06.71]Unanswered Prayers
[00:07.41]
[00:09.08]Just the other night at a hometown football game
[00:15.21]My wife and I ran into my old high school flame
[00:22.19]And as I introduced them the past came back to me
[00:28.28]And I couldn't help but think of the way things used to be
[00:35.07]
[00:37.18]She was the one that I'd wanted for all times
[00:42.92]And each night I'd spend prayin' that God would make her mine
[00:49.01]And if he'd only grant me this wish I wished back then
[00:55.82]I'd never ask for anything again
[01:03.24]
[01:03.99]Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
[01:12.17]Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
[01:18.26]That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care
[01:26.74]Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers
[01:36.85]
[01:41.87]She wasn't quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams
[01:47.89]And I could tell that time had changed me
[01:51.43]Inn her eyes too it seemed
[01:55.30]We tried to talk about the old days
[01:57.74]There wasn't much we could recall
[02:00.80]I guess the Lord knows what he's doin' after all
[02:10.41]
[02:11.54]And as she walked away and I looked at my wife
[02:16.78]And then and there I thanked the good Lord
[02:20.54]For the gifts in my life
[02:26.59]
[02:27.31]Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
[02:35.10]Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs
[02:41.00]That just because he may not answer doesn't mean he don't care
[02:49.80]Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers
[02:55.22]
[02:56.37]Some of God's greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...
