Are there any songs that have touched you or made you cry?

For me there have been a few and I could write a big list of them but instead I’m just going to say the one song that really touched me the most was a song called God’s Will by Martina McBride and I still cry when I hear it or see it on TV sometimes ‘cause it is so sad but there is also a positive message in this song and that is not to take life for granted. Another song was In My Daughter’s Eyes and I cried when I heard that the first time too. I have a 9 year old who was diagnosed with Autism and without going into details I was raped when I was 19 and got pregnant and as hard as that was for me I knew I had to be strong for her ‘cause she needed her Mummy and she ended up saving me.

Here are the music videos and the lyrics to the songs.

"God's Will"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCRrrP0EhPc

I met God's Will on a Halloween night

He was dressed as a bag of leaves

It hid the braces on his legs at first

His smile was as bright as the August sun

When he looked at me

As he struggled down the driveway, it almost

Made me hurt

Will don't walk too good

Will don't talk too good

He won't do the things that the other kids do,

In our neighborhood

[Chorus:]

I've been searchin', wonderin', thinkin'

Lost and lookin' all my life

I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated

I've wrestled wrong and right

He was a boy without a father

And his mother's miracle

I've been readin', writin', prayin', fightin'

I guess I would be still

Yeah, that was until

I knew God's Will

Will's mom had to work two jobs

We'd watch him when she had to work late

And we'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed

Since I don't know when

Hey Jude was his favorite song

At dinner he'd ask to pray

And then he'd pray for everybody in the world but him

[Chorus]

Before they moved to California

His mother said, they didn't think he'd live

And she said each day that I have him, well it's just

another gift

And I never got to tell her, that the boy

Showed me the truth

In crayon red, on notebook paper, he'd written

Me and God love you

I've been searchin', prayin', wounded, jaded

I guess I would be still

Yeah that was until...

I met God's Will on a Halloween night

He was dressed as a bag of leaves

In My Daughter's Eyes

In my daughter's eyes,

I am a hero,

I am strong and wise,

And I know no fear,

But the truth is plain to see,

She was sent to rescue me,

I see who I want to be,

In my daughter's eyes

In my daughter's eyes,

Everyone is equal,

Darkness turns to light,

And the world is at peace,

This miracle god gave to me,

Gives me strength when I am weak,

I find reason to believe,

In my daughter's eyes

And when she wraps her hand around my finger,

How it puts a smile in my heart,

Everything becomes a little clearer,

I realize what life is all about,

It's hanging on when your heart is had enough,

It's giving more when you feel like giving up,

I've seen the light,

It's in my daughter's eyes

In my daughter's eyes,

I can see the future,

A reflection of who I am and what will be,

And though she'll grow and someday leave,

Maybe raise a family,

When i'm gone I hope you see,

How happy she made me,

For i'll be there,

In my daughter's eyes
