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)
And I know it’s time to let her go
She’s fadin' 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)
And I know it’s time to let her go
She’s fadin' 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, I probably should
