My Prayed-For Daughter

I prayed through the silence, prayed through the night;

Held on to a hope

I couldn't quite sight;

They told me a story that hid you away;

But love had your name in my heart every day;

When I met you at five, it felt like a sign;

Like heaven had kept you right there in time;

Now I see the reason in every tear;

God had been watching and drawing you near;

What looked like love was a door open wide;

My daughter, my blessing, my joy, my pride;

You're my heartbeat, my light in the dark;

A miracle written deep inside my heart;

No matter the distance, no matter the miles;

I'll come find you, baby, and bring back your smile;

Dance with my little one, my baby girl too;

Daddy's forever loving both of you;

I missed the first page here, but

I'm here in store;

Learning your laughter, your strength;

And your glory;

Watching you grow;

Into all that you are;

The brightest sweet blessing;

My beautiful star;

And soon my little one;

I will turn three years old;

With a soul full of sunshine;

And a spirit of gold;

Thank the

Lord for the road that we′re on;

For the pain that was broken and turned into song;

Two daughters in my life, what more could

I need?

You are my answer, prayer, my every need;

A mirror, you′re my heartbeat, my light in the dark;

A mirror full of pages inside my heart;

And no matter the miles,

I'll come through you, baby;

And bring out your smile, answer my little one;

My daily girl's cool, and he's forever loving most of you;

If the world comes between us,

I won't let it stay;

Until I find my way;

Through every storm, every locked door;

I'll be right there for you;

Now and forever more;

Love never quits, it only grows strong;

And the light beneath yours;

No matter the distance, no matter the miles;

I'll come find you, baby, and put back your smile;

Into my little one, my baby girl crew;

Thanks for ever lovin' both of you;

You will hear me when I say;

I'll always love you every single day;

I'll always love you every day;

My God, my hope, my reason, my truth;

My God, my hope, my reason, my truth;

No matter how far, I'm coming for you;

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, a miracle;

My mirror, my mirror;

Hear me when I say;

My mirror, my mirror;

My mirror, my mirror;

Hear when I say;
