WHAT IF

A little girl gave me a Bible

Outside the store today

I asked how much she wanted

She said you don't have to pay

Just Pray...

I said you sure look nice

In your pretty dress

She wouldn't be distracted

Stepped forward to request

~~~*Chorus*~~~

Will you pray for the Children of the world

Pray that their lives will leave behind one special gift

I know that some don't believe

That Jesus lived and died for thee

But what if

What if

~~*~~

I put down my groceries

And held her little hands

We bowed our heads

And her sweet voice began

I repeated her prayer

She looked up at its end

Shocked that I was shaken

As we whispered our Amen

~~~*2nd Chorus*~~~

We prayed for the people of the world

Prayed that nice folks like me, would open up their eyes and see

We all need to come together as one

She smiled at me, and blew the sky a kiss

And I thought what if

What if...

I told everyone when I got to work

About her precious prayer

They all took each other's hands

Then asked me if I would share

~~~*Finale*~~~

So we prayed for the people of this world

Prayed that nice folks like u,s would open up and finally trust

We will all be together after this

We just have to believe that Jesus does exist

Because what if

What if
