My Answered Prayer

One night, I asked the Lord above,
How can I lose someone that I love?
Am I so bad, He had to take you away,
Finding all the reasons to make you stay.

Maybe I really don’t know how to keep you,
Even though my love is so pure and true.
You have brought me heaven here on earth
And I put you through hell and your soul’s death.

Finally, I knelt and prayed to God,
Wishing I could take back what I had.
And if you’re not for me to have again,
He takes you now, save us all the pain.

But here you are back in my life,
More than ever hoping you’ll be my wife.
I know now, my life will be better,
Because you are my answered prayer.
