Divine Intervention
Verse 1:
He sits at the kitchen table twiddlelin' his thumbs
He twittered all his friends to come and get his stuff
He just put a status as the kid that never one
He dosn't understand his life and what it has become
His Mom is at the grocery store his dad is out to lunch
His sisteres at the college where he was suppose to go this month
He stands up and he gets his stuff he's rollin to the bus
Heleft a love you letter undernieth his brothers cup
He wondered if they'de miss him or if summer would be tuff
without him hoverin' around their rumegin through stuff
a life long journey and its only been six months
a wheel chair tube fed the doctor said its luck
The doctor said hes lucky but he'll never walk agian
He lost his faith in God after that football accident
Nfl running back ya his friends predicted him
He had a full ride scholarship to Texas A & M
He's sittin on the bus and its headed to the bridge
The San Francisco Bay cuz that'll only be a six
point two second fall ya that will do the trick
That will take away the pain he feels from deep within
If their is a God he better come and get him please
Cuz He's about to meet him unless someone intervenes
Hes crying now the tears are just a streaming down his cheaks
all the pain that he has felt is just about to hit the peak
He sat next to a nun who was praying with some beads
the lady in the front holds a baby in her seat
the driver plays some music while the man in backs asleep
nobody notices the kid that crying full of grief
He departed from the bus and he rolled across the street
No one is around so thats a perfect place to leap
He struggled out his wheelchair and he stumbled to his feet
He stood up on the rail so he could jump into the sea
He put his hands inside his pocket took a breath and felt the breeze
but sumthin in his jeans caught his finger like a string
He pulled it out attached to it was fifty little beads
the one that the nun had the final puzzle piece
Attached to it a bible verse a passage of the seen
and the life of Jesus Christ he's the path to all our peace
He fell back from the rail and collapsed to his knees
He converted on the spot back to where he needs to be
Chourus :
My God can I give you this Cross
would you take it away cuz I cant bare the weight
I promise that I'll be much stronger next time
but let your Holy will be done
Verse 2
She stepped into the elevator pushed the button down
she was headed to the top cuz that was furthest from the ground
She said her life was like a circus it just circled all around
she was the featured act the monkey gymnist and the clown
The minister from church was gone he was out of town
He is who she talked to when everything went south
Her Uncle Benny is to sick for her to talk about
the loss of both her parents and her living there withou them
Her dad died in a crash and her mommy did too
she twenty five now that was back in ninty two
the fact is that she lost her faith in God when that insued
she asked him why it happened but he never gave a clue
She left a love you letter in the kitchen on the stool
she leaves behind a sister two brothers and a poodle
She moved to urban city but she grew up in the rural
shes runnin' from the pain I say pain as in the plural
The loss of her mother nothin could be worse
the only thing she kept of hers was just a little purse
She never looked inside it she's afraid that it would hurt
She wasn't supersticious but she didnt want the curse
She struggled with the latch but she got the lock to move
She opened up the hatch and stumbled out onto the roof
she mumbled to herself if their is a God to prove himself
because the sand inside the hour glass is running through
and the time between her life and death was running on a fume
she looked down at the street and uttered ya that'll do
the pain runneth deep as the ache runs through
her veins and it makes her enraged one two wait
she only brought her phone, her license and her mothers purse
she went to put her ID in it that would be a first
she slowly unzipped it untied the little ribbon
what was in it saved her life from riding in a herse
A little Jesus card it said take away my pain
her mother must of put their before she passed away
Save me from my weakness I just need a litlle strength
He died for my sins so his cross i will take
suddenly a shot of grace shot all through her veins
she fell back from the rail thanked God and gave him praise
She took her mothers purse and put it right on her shoulder
Divine intervention her life was not over
