God's Will Lyrics by Lori McKenna
Lori McKenna Lyrics
I met God's will on a Halloween night
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
It hid the braces on his legs at first
His smile was brighter than an august sun
When he looked at me
As he struggled down the driveway, it almost made me hurt
Will don't walk too good
Will don't talk too good
He won't do the things the other kids do, in my neighborhood
I've been searchin', wonderin', thinkin'
Lost and lookin' all my life
I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
Wrestled wrong and right
He was a boy without a father
And his mother's miracle
I've been readin', writin', prayin', fightin'
I guess I would be still
Yeah, that was until
I knew God's will
Will's mom had to work two jobs
We'd watch him when she had to work late
We'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed since I don't know when
"Hey Jude" was his favorite song
At dinner he'd ask to pray
Then he'd pray for everybody in the world but him
I've been searchin', wonderin', thinkin'
Lost and lookin' all my life
I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
Wrestled wrong and right
He was a boy without a father
And his mother's miracle
I've been readin', writin', prayin', fightin'
I guess I would be still
Yeah, that was until
I knew God's will
Before they moved to California
His mother said, they didn't think he'd live
And each day that I have him, is just another gift
I never got to tell her, the boy showed me the truth
In crayon red, on notebook paper, he'd written
Me and God love you
I've been searchin', prayin', wounded, jaded
I guess I would be still
Yeah that was until...
I met god's will on a Halloween night
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
