Bible on the Dash

Grandma gave me this old book

I never read it much I probably should.

All the answers wrote in red, I never listen to a word she said.

I’m selfish lord, help me out. Grandma’s sick she needs me now.

(I know she needs me)

I know it’s time to let her go,

She’s fading fast and heaven knows, that I ain’t prayed like this in so long.

I said “Lord forgive her for her sins, she’s been through hell and back again.”

And I will too once she’s gone.

That’s a smile I can’t get back, I’m losing all I ever had.

That’s why I keep this bible on the dash.

I don’t remember what she said to me;

Between the tears and the beers I hit my knees.

The doctor said she won’t last long,

I just pray she has the strength to carry on.

I never thought it’d be this hard, but watching daddy cry; it broke my heart.

(Yeah, he broke my heart)

I know it’s time to let her go,

She’s fading fast and heaven knows, that I ain’t prayed like this in so long.

I said “Lord forgive her for her sins, she’s been through hell and back again.”

And I will too once she’s gone.

That’s a smile I can’t get back, I’m losing all I ever had.

That’s why I keep this bible on the dash.

That’s why I keep this bible on the dash.

Grandma gave me this old book, I never read it much but I probably should.
