Verse:
Sometimes
I wonder what I’d like to be
An astronaut who flies so free?
Maybe I'll grow up to find great answers,
Maybe even find the cure for cancer.
Only heaven knows, Only heaven knows
Verse:
Then
I wonder where my life will be going?
It's hard to tell... no way of knowing.
Maybe I'll grow up to be a beauty queen
But now that I'm aborted I will never see
I could have even danced…If I just had a chance.
Refrain:
Give
me a chance, Lord.
Just give me a chance, Lord!
I want to open my eyes and breathe the fresh air,
The glory of God to see!
Give me a chance, Lord, Just give me a chance, Lord!
Let me breathe the fresh air and feel the wind in my hair
Give me a chance, Lord, Give me a chance.
Verse:
Why,
oh Lord, did they let me die?
It hurts so much I want to cry.
Lord, all I wanted was to know Your love.
To know You as the Baby given from above.
Now
I'll never know... No, I'll never know.
Verse:
Lord,
I pray that You give life to all
Forgive those who defy Your call.
Could have even danced…
If I just had a chance. (Refrain)
Verse:
Why,
oh Lord, did they let me die?
It hurts so much I want to cry.
All I ever wanted was a mom and dad.
Is that asking too much?
Is that really so bad?
Now I'll never know...No, I'll never know.
Lord,
I pray now let these children live
Change our nation's heart and forgive.
Give Your grace I pray...Give us life today. (Refrain)
