The Little Girl
John Michael Montgomery

Her parents never took the young girl to church
Never spoke of his name
Never read her his words
two non believers walking lost in this world
Took their baby with them
what a sad little girl

Her daddy drank all day and her mommy did drugs
Never wanted to play or give kisses and hugs
She'd watch the t.v. and sit there on the couch
while her mom fell asleep and her daddy went out
And the drinking and the fighting just got worse every night
Behind their couch she'd be hiding oh what a sad little life

And like it always does the bad just got worse
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
And some people from the city took the girl far away
To a new mom and a new dad kisses and hugs every day

Her first day of Sunday school the teacher walked in
And a small little girl stared at a picture of Him
She said I know that man there on that cross
I don't know his name but I know he got off
Cause he was there in my old house and held me close to his side
As I hid there behind our couch the night that my parents died



God is Good

There was an atheist couple who had a child. The couple never told their daughter anything about the Lord. One night when the little girl was 5 years old, the parents fought with each other and the dad shot the Mom, right in front of the child. Then, the dad shot ! himself. The little girl watched it all. She then was sent to a foster home. The foster mother was a Christian and took the child to church. On the first day of Sunday School, the foster mother told the teacher that the girl had never heard of Jesus, and to have patience with her. The teacher held up a picture of Jesus and said, "Does anyone know who this is?" The little girl said, "I do, that's the man who was holding me the night my parents died."
