So much more

Thought I had it all figured out,

I was gonna chase down my dreams.

Thought I knew what life was all about,

But things aren't always as it seems.

My path turned down a different route,

But I still put on my boots and jeans.

This isn't what I prayed for

not how it's supposed to go.

Losing the battle but winning the war,

Too many heartaches on this broken road.

This isn't what I prayed foooorrrrr,

But you've given me so much more

Turning to you when life gets hard,

Blessed me with kids and dogs in the yard.

You provide me with pieces for this puzzle,

Of a game that we call life.

Gave me a woman to help with this struggle,

Eventually she'll become my wife.

Watching the wind move the leaves,

Trusting, knowing your the one who controls the breeze.

This isn't what I prayed for

not how it's supposed to go.

Losing the battle but winning the war,

Too many heartaches on this broken road.

This isn't what I prayed foooorrrrr,

But you've given me so much more

Been there for me when I wasnt there for myself,

Picked me up off the ground and put the liquor on the shelf.

I learn kinda slow but you stayed beside me.

Always reaching out with a hand to guide me.

Thank you for being the God I don't deserve,

When you judge me I hope you judge me on a curve.

This isn't what I prayed for

But it's exactly how it's supposed to go.

Your winning the battles and winning the war,

Many lessons learned on my perfect road.

This isn't what I prayed foooorrrrr,

But you've given me so much more

Lord thank you, for not giving up on me,

This isn't what I prayed for

But it's exactly how it's supposed to go.

Your winning the battles and winning the war,

Many lessons learned on my perfect road.

This isn't what I prayed foooorrrrr,

But you've given me so much more

Lord thank you, for not giving up on meeeee
