[00:19.95]I met God's Will on a Halloween night
[00:23.52]He was dressed as a bag of leaves
[00:28.45]It hid the braces on his legs at first
[00:35.89]His smile was as bright as the August sun
[00:40.03]When he looked at me
[00:43.46]As he struggled down the driveway, it almost
[00:46.84]Made me hurt
[00:51.11]Will don't walk too good
[00:55.11]Will don't talk too good
[00:58.94]He won't do the things that the other kids do,
[01:03.49]In our neighborhood
[01:07.00]I've been searchin', wonderin', thinkin'
[01:11.36]Lost and lookin' all my life
[01:14.93]I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
[01:20.22]I've wrestled wrong and right
[01:23.29]He was a boy without a father
[01:27.30]And his mother's miracle
[01:33.23]I've been readin', writin', prayin', fightin'
[01:38.08]I guess I would be still
[01:41.20]Yeah, that was until
[01:44.76]I knew God's will
[01:55.75]Will's mom had to work two jobs
[01:58.87]We'd watch him when she had to work late
[02:02.16]And we'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed
[02:05.41]Since I don't know when
[02:10.66]Hey Jude was his favorite song
[02:13.87]At dinner he'd ask to pray
[02:17.21]And then he'd pray for everybody in the world but him
[02:24.19]I've been searchin', wonderin', thinkin'
[02:28.29]Lost and lookin' all my life
[02:31.72]I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
[02:36.70]I've wrestled wrong and right
[02:39.64]He was a boy without a father
[02:43.47]And his mother's miracle
[02:48.90]I've been readin', writin', prayin', fightin'
[02:53.62]I guess I would be still
[02:56.55]Yeah, that was until
[02:59.85]I knew God's will
[03:07.77]Before they moved to California
[03:11.60]His mother said, "they didn't think he'd live"
[03:15.29]And she said, "each day that I have him, well, it's jut another gift"
[03:22.86]And I never got to tell her, that the boy showed me the truth
[03:32.12]In crayon red, on notebook paper, he'd written, "me and God love you"
[03:42.67]I've been searchin', prayin', wounded, jaded
[03:48.19]I guess I would be still
[03:51.57]Yeah that was until...
