It was she and I
Sitting in the house
Hoping that tomorrow brought news
Of a healthy little bun in the oven
We were already loving
We were just getting over our blues
The first time was a miscarriage
The only thing to ever make us sad in this marriage
But the providence of God
Showed out
No doubt
As we were given two girls needing caring
Now after having them a few weeks
We were pregnant
I was feeling kinda overwhelmed from the blessing
I have to admit I was feeling under pressure
And the burden of the loss of the first never left us
I'm the type to shake it off
Get to work
And get to stepping
Everyday I was working through the hurt
I wouldn't let her
See what was going on
I was trying to be strong
I just really wanted her to feel better
So there we were
Sitting on the couch
Talking bout our feelings
Letting everything out
Trusting in the Lord
But an inkling of doubt
Still resonated with me
So I'm hearing from my mouth
Lord, we would love a daughter
Or even a son
But never my will
Let Yours be done
And when the ultrasound
Played a dope little beat
I had to praise God
Like the King had come
Glory glory hallelujah
What a wonderful display of true love
Even through the hurt and the pain
You remain the same
So in the worst of the rain
I will praise Your name
Glory glory hallelu
In the beginning there was Joy
A ray of sunshine
And I was looking forward
To an array of fun times
Coming home from work
To either play or unwind
And keep them in a place
Where they can let their light shine
Given by the Lord
You couldn't say they weren't mine
So we they say God is good
I gotta say all the time
Oh Glory glory Hallelu
Fast forward
Twenty weeks later
My wife is adored
As a pretty incubator
As God did the forming
Of a pretty little baby
The second ultrasound
Had revealed a little lady
Within two days
We had figured out a name
And we praised God
For Jynesis Joire
And in two more days
It didn't go our way
And the child that we loved
Never saw one day
Oh Lord I don't understand
But I'm trusting in Your plan
And that you got me in Your hand
I could never question you
I am only just a man
Though this burden seems heavy
Lord the only way I can
Carry it and carry on is by your strength
And I stand
By your grace, it's sufficient
I am weak, You are strong
You're the hope and I long
To sing praises to the One
Glorified through the good and the bad on this song
