God's Will Lyrics - Martina - Martina Mcbride

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 as bright as the 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 that the other kids do, in our neighborhood 

I've been searchin', wonderin', thinkin' 

Lost and lookin' all my life 

I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated 

I've 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 

And 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 

And 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 she said each day that I have him 

Well it's just another gift 

And I never got to tell her 

That 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
