Must Have Been From Heaven

Be brave and walk on

Don't i know it well

I'm not looking for your sympathy

This is just one woman's story to tell

My father, he took his life

When i was just eleven

After that day, i wrote my first song

It was a gift that i was given

To live and to learn

That's what we're here to do

Oh i know we've all got heavy burdens

That we've been working through

My mother never had a choice

She was gone at forty seven

And when they carried my mother away

There was a strength that i was given

Must have been from heaven

Cause look at where i'm standing

I've got my feet on the ground.

It must have been from heaven

Cause i know where i'm goin'

I've got my feet on the groun.

Oh i know that we all get scared

Don't i feel it too

But if you put your faith in heaven

Heaven will see you through

Forgive and forget

That's what we have to do

I married young i was just twenty one

Ten years later we were through

I knew that deep down inside of me

There was something missing

And when i mourned the old love away

I found you, you were a gift that i was given
