| The
Little Girl |
Her parents never took
The young girl to church
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
Her daddy drank all day
And mommy did drugs
Never wanted to play
Or give kisses and hugs
She'd watch the TV
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 dad
And kisses and hugs everyday
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
Up there on that cross
I don't know His name
But I know He got off
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.

The Eleventh Commandment
She hears his heavy breathing in the dark.
His footsteps coming closer down the hall.
She's so ashamed. She's Daddy's secret love.
She wants to cry. She wants to die,
But he can't get enough.
The bruises on his face will go away,
Mom keeps him home from school till they fade.
She's sorry he was born and tells him so.
He takes it in. He hangs his chin.
He ducks another blow.
Did God overlook it?
What ought have been written?
The eleventh Commandment:
Honor thy children.
He cries for hours, cries and never stops.
He shakes so hard his little cradle rocks.
He'll never have the chance to be brand new.
He'll never walk. He'll never talk.
He's addicted too.
Did God overlook it?
What ought have been written.
The Eleventh Commandment:
Honor they children.
Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not steal.
Thou shalt not take the Lord's name in vain.
Thou shalt not cause thy children pain.
God does not overlook it.
What ought have been written.
The Eleventh Commandment:
Honor thy children.
Honor thy children.
