The Little Girl Lyrics
Never spoke of his name, never read her his word
Two non-believers walking lost in this world
Took their baby with them, what a sad little girl
Never wanted to play, or give kisses and hugs
She's watch the TV and sit there on the couch
While her mom fell asleep and her daddy went out
Just got worse everynight
Behind their couch, she'd be hiding
Oh what a sad little life
With every slap and every curse
Until her daddy, in a drunk rage one night
Used a gun on her mom and then took his life
Took the girl far away
To a new mom, and a new dad
Kisses and hugs everyday
And a small little girl stared at a picture of him
She said "I know that man up there on that cross
"I don't know his name but I know he got off
Held me close to his side
As I hid there behind our couch
The night that my parents died"
The situation portrayed in this song is devastating, but I had to delete it from my iPod because I can't stand the way it portrays atheists. My parents are atheists and they're the best parents I could wish for. It's a sad, fearmongering stereotype.
i dont understand how there arent more comments on this song!! but yes, i agree with you thezigg it is pretty obvious and she knew Jesus before hearing a word about him... i love it!! Beautiful song
This song just makes my eyes turn cloudy.
One of the most beautiful song I know.
I completely agree. This is a song I can relate to. Well, not me per say but one of my friends was in a situation disturbingly close to this. "shiver" a lovely piece of art.
Obvious meaning here I think. Christ was with her holding her tight when she saw her parents die.
Hmm, another song about me. Why am I not seeing any money from this?
