D
A little girl prayed at the close of the day
A
Cause her daddy had gone far away
D

On her little face was a look of despair
D
I stood there and listened
A
D
and I heard this pray er
G
my mama says daddy has
D
brought us to shame

men tion his name
D
Lord, take me and lead me
G
and hold to my hand
D
Oh, Heavenly Father,
A
D
help me understand
You know, friends, I wonder
G
how many homes are broken tonight
D
And just how many tears are shed
By some little word of anger
that never should have been said
A
I'd like to tell you a story of a family
D
I once knew we'll call them
G
Mary and William
D
and their little daughter Sue now Mary
was just a plain mother and Bill
A
well he was the usu al dad
D
an d they had their little family quarrels
G
like everybody else
but Neither one really got mad.
D
Then one day something happened.
G
It was nothing, of course,
D
but one word led to another,
A
and the last word led to a di vorce.
D
Now here were two
grown -up people
who failed to use common sense.
G
They strengthened their own
D
selfish pride
G
at little Sue's expense.
D
A
You know, she didn't ask
to be brought to this world
D
to drift from pillar to post
G
but a divorce never stops
D
to consider the ones it hurts the most
G
there'd be a lot more honest loving
in this wicked old world today
D
A
if just a few parted parents
could hear little sue say
D
G
take me and lead me and hold to my hand
D
A
D
Oh, Heavenly Father, help me understand
