Must Have Been From Heaven

Be brave and walk on
Don't I know it well
I'm not looking for your sympathy
This is just one woman's story to tell
My father, he took his life
When I was just eleven
After that day, I wrote my first song
It was a gift that I was given

To live and to learn
That's what we're here to do
Oh I know we've all got heavy burdens
That we've been working through
My mother never had a choice
She was gone at forty seven
And when they carried my mother away
There was a strength that I was given

Chorus
Must have been from heaven
'Cause look at where I'm standing
I've got my feet on the ground.
It must have been from heaven
'Cause I know where I'm goin'
I've got my feet on the groun.

Oh I know that we all get scared
Don't I feel it too
But if you put your faith in heaven
Heaven will see you through

Forgive and forget
That's what we have to do
I married young I was just twenty one
Ten years later we were through
I knew that deep down inside of me
There was something missing
And when I mourned the old love away
I found you, you were a gift that I was given
