A Thousand Prayers Answered

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Slow September mornings come around, The porch light glowing soft and warm, I've watched you dreaming, holding on, Through every quiet, waiting storm. And now the sun is breaking through, This gift I'm holding starts with you. [Chorus] Oh, love has found a way at last, The promise of a brand new day, Sheyla, all the years we've prayed, Faith kept every fear away. Our little Grace is on her way, And love has found a way, at last. [Verse 2] September first, the day you came, The reason I believe in more, You taught this heart to hold to hope When both of us weren't sure. The nursery walls, a whispered name, A tiny heartbeat, all your grace. [Chorus] Oh, love has found a way at last, The promise of a brand new day, Sheyla, all the years we've prayed, Faith kept every fear away. Our little Grace is on her way, And love has found a way, at last. [Bridge] By late October, she'll be here, The answer to a thousand prayers. I'll stand beside you through it all, A family, and love to spare. [Verse 3] And when she opens up her eyes, And feels your gentle hands so near, She'll know the strength that carried her, The mother waiting all these years. So thank you, Sheyla, for this life, For every dream, for being mine. [Chorus] Oh, love has found a way at last, The promise of a brand new day, Sheyla, all the years we've prayed, Faith kept every fear away. Our little Grace is on her way, And love has found a way, at last. [Outro] Two hearts became a family, Grace and you, and endless grace for me.
