Lyrics
Sunday school was over-I looked up at Mrs. White-Maybe she knew-She really did seem nice I rolled to her-Butterflies in my stomach Would she laugh at me-Make me feel funny I said-I understand why other boys are special-Cause they can run-And they can jump real high But I was born with less that don’t work so well-Oh Mrs. White-Will God hear my prayers tonight I looked up at her-Saw the tears in her eyes-She knelt down beside me-And grabbed my hand real tight I could tell she was searching-For the words to say to me I could tell by the sound of her voice-What she said she believed She said-God doesn’t look at you as anything else-He looks inside and what’s in your heart It doesn’t matter-Your legs don’t work so well-You can bet I’m right-God will hear your prayers tonight
