The Letter
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She had a ring of gold and a three-year-old
And a house with a wooden fence
The doctors tried and her family cried
‘Cause it didn’t make no sense
But somewhere deep inside she knew God knew better
So in the middle of the night
Dim night light
She started her letter
It said
Don’t give up right before the miracle
Don’t let this world turn you cold and cynical
Take these words write ‘em on your heart
Let your light shine through the dark
And when you think you’ve had enough
Keep looking up keep looking up
Well she got the note that her momma wrote
On the day she turned eleven
On the envelope she read the words
To my little girl from heaven
She couldn’t remember the smell of her skin
Oh, but on that night it was like she was holding her again
When she read
Don’t give up right before the miracle
Don’t let this world turn you cold and cynical
Take these words write ‘em on your heart
Let your light shine through the dark
And when you think you’ve had enough
Keep looking up keep looking up
Find a man who will hold your hand and loves you for you
And for heaven’s sake, you’ll make mistakes but whatever you do
Don’t give up right before the miracle
Don’t let this world turn you cold and cynical
Take these words write ‘em on your heart
Let your light shine through the dark
And when you think you’ve had enough
And you need me to pour down my love
Keep looking up
Keep looking up
