there's this kid he just turned 4 with so many dreams of so many more with so much excitement and a smile on his face, he imagines all the adventures in his mind that he will take. [pause] as his mama stands and watches with a sad look on her face, because she knows that those adventures in his mind are the only ones he'll ever take... Cause, he's stuck inside a wheelchair, because his legs won't let him stand, he already lost his hearing so when you talk he can't understand, and now his sight is quickly fading, and he's so scared to be in the dark. How the hell can this be happening to such an innocent heart. [Pre Chorus] And his mama closes her eyes and prays [Chorus] Please lord hear me, [pause] i know you're watching over me i have faith that you'll make him stand up again and let him see that I'm right here with him, , and i know when I say that I love him you will Make it so he can hear that from me. So, I'm praying," please lord hear meee[instrumentals][2nd verse] [instrumentals] [2nd verse] " . It's been a few months now since things turned this way, he's not getting better, he gets worse every day. . there is no more excitement and the smiles gone from his face, the pain that replaced the adventures, it's more than his mind can take. [pause] as his mama stands and watches with a sad look on her face, because she knows that every breath he makes could be the last one he could ever take. Now he can't get out of bed, he's too weak and can't get up, and he doesn't hear the sounds he makes as he suffers in the dark. But even with all the treatments [pause] and all the test that he went through [pause] the Doctor just told his mamma, [pause] "I'm sorry; there's nothing else that we can do[Pre Chorus hook] [Pre Chorus hook] "... his mama looks up to the sky and screams. [Chorus] [Chorus] "PLEASE LORD HERE ME", I've always done everything you asked of me, but he's running out of time so I'm really going to need you to answer this one prayer for me, And just give him the chance to be like every kid deserves to be., you need to make him stand back up again and give back the sight you took from him, but if this is the way things need to be, then all you have to do lord, is just take it off of him and just put it all on me.... So, I'm begging you, please lord hear meee.... It's only been a week, since he took his last breath, his mama can't help but wonder why her prayers were never met, she followed the good book and she always tried to live her life right, so, she can't understand why GOD would bless her with such a special gift, just so she could watch him suffer, just to have him taken back like this. [pause] She looks up to the sky and with a tone that can't be disguised, she says [dramatic outro] [dramatic outro] "No child" should ever have to go through the things that my sweet child did, [pause] why would you give a kid these burdens, before they even get the chance to live. [pause]. . why would you let a child get cancer so they have to suffer every day, i just really can't understand, why the hell you would let things be this way. but what I'd really like you to explain ... if your always here, then why couldn't you of just answer that "ONE" single prayer for me...you could of just saved him and you should of just took me ..... "So, hear me now lord... [pause] why didn't you just take me... [song ends with instrumentals and background vocals] now the only thing that you can do for me, is you need to hear me, .and go ahead and just take me... "Please lord hear me "Please lord hear me "Please lord hear me
