Prayers answered. God is good.

[Intro]
[Verse]
Amen, amen.
Thank You, Lord.
Thank You for hearing our prayers.
Verse 1
A lifetime holding out for hope against distrust,
learning grace, learning forgiveness,
learning who to trust
and who not to call.
Ahhh. Ahhhhhh. Amen. Amen.
Why did they betray me? I spoke the truth.
I signed sworn affidavits, still they looked away,
ignored my justice again.
The police, the sheriff, the state courts—
lost to me,
failing to serve,
the courts I once believed in.
But through it all,
You showed me this:
true justice comes from You,
and from the ones You send
to carry out Your will.
Chorus
You have seen it all.
When they looked away, You heard my call.
God of mercy, God of fire,
lift my family higher.
Verse 2
What was buried now stands near,
and I won’t let it disappear.
Still I’m standing, still I pray,
even when they look away.
Chorus
You have seen it all.
When they looked away, You heard my call.
God of mercy, God of fire,
lift my family higher.
Verse 3
When my phone no longer rang,
when my own calls faded in the dark,
when heartbreak tried to bury what I had given,
You saw me.
You, Jesus, who lifted me and others.
The One called the Great I Am.
You are the real rock,
the One who stayed when others ran.
Alone and nowhere to turn,
You never fled.
You did not judge.
You fed me life and starved my pain.
Bridge
Break
the silence, break the chain,
heal the wound and speak my name.
Let mercy rise like morning light,
God of mercy, make it right.
I will bow to You every time.
I will not flee Your love.
You are the One who still sees and helps me.
Verse 4
Property battles, personal threats,
You saw it all and held us up.
Then in the silence, in a private prayer,
remembering my sister who stood her ground,
You sent that rainbow, like Laurie’s crown,
telling me all was well in heaven and earth,
that a life well lived is never lost,
and You will answer when I call.
Final Chorus
You have seen it all.
When they looked away, You heard my call.
God of mercy, God of fire,
lift my family higher.
Thank You, Lord, over and forever and daily.
For being here,
for carrying us where darkness cannot reach,
for the Easter rainbow,
for my sister Laurie,
and for the mercy no one can steal.
Amen.
Ahhhhmmm. Ahhhhmmm. Amen.
Thank You, God, for this song.
