Her parents never took the young girl to church spoke of His name Never read her His word Two non-believers walking lost in this Took their baby with them What a sad little girl
Her daddy drank all day mommy did drugs Never wanted to play Or give kisses and hugs She'd watch the TV and sit there on the couch her mom fell asleep And her daddy went out
And the drinking and the fighting just got worse every night Behind their couch she'd be hiding Oh what a sad little life And like it does, the bad just got worse With every slap and every curse Until her daddy a drunk rage one night Used a gun on her mom and then took his life
some people from the city took the girl far away To a new mom and a new dad kisses and hugs everyday Her first day of Sunday school the teacher walked in And a small little girl Stared at a of Him
She said I know that man up there on that cross I don't know His name I know He got off Cause He was in my old house and held me close to His side As I hid there behind our couch The night that my parents died
