JESUS KNEW
Some of the biggest steps are made by little feet
When they no longer have to crawl
They stumble, sometimes they fall
Using their little feet
And learning how to walk
Wanting to stand tall
When they walk
Little sounds are made, for someone to hear
A baby trying to make a word
So someone can understand
Music to a mother's ear
When the little sounds turned into a big word
That only a mother would understand
A big heart beat from a little heart
Filled with love, did not know hate
And wonders why, with a tear in her eye
The world has so little heart
Why love comes so late
She wonders why
Beaten with a belt and taught to hate
With a mother on cocaine
And the Devil always nearby
But she knew God and her fate
Her young body was beaten and she felt the pain
As she cried, she knew that Jesus was nearby
And why did the world turn a deaf ear
Were they afraid to help, as she wondered why
But, she grew
Prayed at night, hoping Jesus would hear
He knew what made her cry
Yes, everyday and night, Jesus knew
